Just Got 2 Lincolns

admin

Just bought both of these lincolns for $450!  One runs fine the other needs some tlc. I am going to do some work to them. Just thought I would share the pics as I go. Both ranger 8. Onan engines. Plus it was a nice 2 hr ride to the beach!  Attached Images
Reply:That's the way I like to see a welder: USED.   Its funny though, that nearly all the rangers like that I see are beat up around the edges, but I never recall seeing any Millers that bung up, even though they had steel edges too at one time. Maybe they give the lincolns the rough jobs.Esab Migmaster 250Lincoln SA 200Lincoln Ranger 8Smith Oxy Fuel setupEverlast PowerPlasma 80Everlast Power iMIG 160Everlast Power iMIG 205 Everlast Power iMIG 140EEverlast PowerARC 300Everlast PowerARC 140STEverlast PowerTIG 255EXT

Reply:Yes this guy also had 3 miller bobcats in running condition for $500 each.1 welder is missing the hr meter but the one that does run now has 1800 hrs. Now I need to get them off the truck before the snow!
Reply:GOOD score.HOW much snow you exp to get
Reply:Not really sure, They say something different every time I watch the news. I think around 4-5". Just enough to get everything messy.
Reply:Know what you mean nothing yet last call was for 12" to 18" but may change again good luck on your Lincoln's

Reply:Put a tarp on them, good weight for the snow. I put my SA200 on when it snows, motor needs work anyways and it a good 1200 lbs or more."Si Vis Pacem Para Bellum"Lincoln Idealarc 250 AC/DCMillermatic 251   Syncrowave 300   30A spoolgunLincoln MP210Hypertherm 45(2) LN 25(2) Lincoln Weldanpower 225 CV(4) SA200   1 short hood    SA250    SAM 400
Reply:Welders did work good for weight. Never got stuck to 7-11 and back. Now to get the old skidsteer started in 20 degrees  and welders into the garage. Next I have to build a woodstove, geez its cold for here!
Reply:I fueled my skidloader after not using it for a while with home heating oil, I ran for about 5 minutes and died. After a few checks it dawned on me that I had not treated the home heating oil and it is about 16 degrees out. You know how much fun it was to get running after that. Managed to get it started after getting a gallon and a half of Kerosene in the tank , got lucky and it fired but would barely run, forget throttling it. Finall worked it's way through the filters. Got My SA on board later in the day."Si Vis Pacem Para Bellum"Lincoln Idealarc 250 AC/DCMillermatic 251   Syncrowave 300   30A spoolgunLincoln MP210Hypertherm 45(2) LN 25(2) Lincoln Weldanpower 225 CV(4) SA200   1 short hood    SA250    SAM 400

Reply:Well got it running with 2 batteries, crank and crank..... Once it was running it was fine, I dumped some fuel treatment in it about 2 weekd ago when it started freezing outside, because I have been there with torpedo heaters on it trying to thaw it out. I will never do that again.duaneb55: Should have picked up the Millers too....I would have loved to, but my wife was already freaking out about thoose 2 and the 2 1/2 hr ride. They just dont understand. Wish I would have taken pictures of this guys storage yard tho, he had anything you can think of. stacks of dryers, welders galore, a old army tank, containers, EVERYTHING!  And it was in the middle of nowhere.
