[QUOTE="OzzieAu, post: 398744, member: 4086"] I guess it may depend on whether the excavator is powered by a diesel or petrol engine. A petrol donk will probably generate some emi from its high voltage ignition system, which the oil burner doesnt have. They probably both will run an alternator for keeping the battery topped up, but could be unplugged if this interferes with detecting. Youll need a good set of jumper leads though. [/QUOTE]
