Truck With No APU

Eat lots of mayonnaise too.

 

If i idle my truck its always at 1000rpm even if its only 10min

 

why? Why would you run an engine with no load on it at 1,00rpm. What make you think that is a good idea?

 

Find out what the idle policy is then decide for yourself if you want to follow it..at the big pumpkin at the highest performance bonus which was a 4 cent per mile increase. At my peak of 1600 miles (regional tanker) it was only an extra 64$. Since that was all they were willing to pay one once I realized they did everything they could to take the bonus away from you.. no matter how much my dbl called the truck stayed on. Conveniently around that time pilot started upping the points for every fuel up over 50 gallons. I made my bonus money up in pilot points. But I’m loving the questions John, don’t hesitate to keep asking

 

Its better for the engine , do your research . Maybe others will get in with explanation .

 

How long will the ac run off the batteries before the truck starts ? Than how long will the truck run before the batteries are charged enough to run off just the batteries again?

Are the house batteries isolated from the starter batteries. ? Model make truck?
What t

 

Don’t worry about that. You don’t want me idling you better put an APU on this. And if you’re giving me those cruddy electric APUs it better come with fresh batteries I’m not going to have the darn truck starting and stopping all night just to save you some $$$ over having a plain diesel apu.
