I have been asked to convert a farm tractor to electric. The farming couple chose it thinking the hydrostatic drive would make it easier to convert as the motor can run continuously just pumping oil. New project! The tractor is a Russell 3-D tool carrier with hydrostatic drive. This one has a dead ICE and I am yet to see it.

Power steering is electric and as a result we don’t need to check the power steering oil level as there isn’t any. There are also videos on Youtube where people change the pack the DIY way or the individual modules, but be aware to only buy individual modules from a trusted source. Priuses can burn oil. My 2005 burns about 0.3-0.4

It has been about 5 months since I posted my first blog about converting my car to electricity. The air conditioning evaporator is now able to be converted to my cold water heat exchanger. Motor volts, amps, temperature will be showed on 2 inch round dials in the place of oil temp, 12V battery voltage, and fuel level.

Part movie spaceship, part oil independence klaxon, the sound fills the cabin and certainly wont appeal to everyone.
