As originally built, Tilly's boiler level gauge only would only register the lower 4"of water in the boiler. This led to an incident, our mistake, that led to a swedging party, not fun. I wanted to have a gauge that had a taller range of coverage. I did not want to have to drill a hole in the body side panel for the top water feed to get to the glass. After talking with David Nergaard I decided to fit one of his remote level gauges. The assembly consists of a water column mounted next to the boiler, under the seat and a 1 milliampere meter. The meter is housed in a small box I fabricated attached to a plate that is screwed to a cross member under the floor boards. This would require a notch cut into the toe board to clear the plate. I did not want to cut into the original toe board, so a made up a new one. As with any water column top and bottom feed piping connect to the boiler. There will be shut off valves top and bottom as well as a blow down valve on the bottom. An electronic brain box mounted under the toe board makes it all work. If you would like more information contact David Nergaard. I'm not finished yet, here's my progress to now. David can speak to the sensor in the water column and how it all works. He has been running one of these for over 10 years. stanley steam car Vanderbilt Cup Racer11/22/2020 I'm quite proud of the way the car looks - that's a Midwest Coach Vanderbilt Cup Racer Body A quote from the late Mark Johnston. driving a stanley steam car in europe8/27/2020 what SORT of steam car is this7/6/2020 jademsharp@gmail.com Any ideas of what this is?
