I should have warned  you in my first post

Throw this pack a bone an it gets chewed real good   :  )

You mite find that the only reason  it was taken out of serves was that it wasn't keeping up with the demand
 With fuel  prices what they are it would be well worth restoring  to help cut back on fuel use

guys i am sorry i made a big mistake. there IS a big diesel engine which my uncle once started ( just for my pleasure it seems) but that is not used anymore. hehe what there is, is an electrical submersible pump. sorry. once there is the pump i do not want to mess around with that.

also, i very much doubt i will replace the fan with a more efficient modern one as that would create all sorts of new problems such as cost, permits and as well as the fact that i ( as well as my close and extended family)like this windmill as it is so much that im not sure i am sure that i want to change it :)
