<DIV style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif; font-size:10pt;"><DIV>Hank, </DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV> I've got the motor pod running on the bench right now. No oil yet, I have to buy 55 gallons of the mineral oil ( same as I use in my cosmetics) unfortunately it's $1000.00 . I figure in the long run it will be cheaper and I'll use it anyway. I usually go through 55 gallons in a year making my cosmetics. </DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV> I need to take the motor apart and clean it , it's an old golf cart motor. It runs really nice and slow with the gear reduction , I think around 500 rpm. It smoked a little bit , I'm not sure whats up with that. The gear reduction normally has oil in it but I've been running it for short durations with out, I don't think I'm harming it , but I really do want to get the oil in there. I have one whole set up with controller , reversing switch, potentiometer etc , I will need an entire duplicate set up for the starboard motor pod. </DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV>Brian</DIV><DIV> </DIV><DIV><BR><BR>--- personal_submersibles@psubs.org wrote:<BR><BR>From: hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><BR>To: Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><BR>Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] 12 volt Temp sensor<BR>Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2017 14:27:00 +0000 (UTC)<BR><BR></DIV><DIV style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><DIV><SPAN>Brian,</SPAN></DIV><DIV><SPAN>Have you done any testing with your motors in oil?
