    If someone with a BLASTmaster parks next to me, I move.

    They sound like a drag strip when the cars get the green light.

    Yeah I would... they're still noisy.

    You probably needed your coolant recharged. Those things are still a POS waiting to become a maintenance nightmare.

    They are quieter than the old ones but they can still drown out a reefer parked next to you.

    If you tarp strap the air breather tight it will quiet it down. Worked on mine. Still pulls proper air. You can smell when its not getting good air.

    I was due for an APU PM so I got it done like a good soldier. Before the PM, everything had been going fine for a few weeks. I was on a good roll. Now that I got the PM, it keeps overheating. I think that's the opposite of how it's supposed to work but I'm no scientist.

    Does anyone know what would happen during a PM that would cause this change where it is now overheating? I'll try to fix it myself if I can get an idea of what might be going on and can figure out where to start.
