This may have been tried, but go for a run with the gas cap off. Sounds to me like whatever is used to admit air into the tank as fuel is drawn off is causing a vacuum the pump can't overcome. Just a thought...

Antenna Specialists 108" whip to the rescue!

Maybe throw it in a box, weigh it, and get a price for all with shipping and let me know. Thanks, Dennis

I have a quantity of NOS 11.00-18 NDCCs, mostly Goodyear. I have 6 to sell, $150 per and you pay shipping. I have some mounted NATO recaps for the same $. >>OR<< Trade 1 for 1 GOOD used 9.00-16 NDCC, same shipping to you, I'll pay for the return.

That is bolted to the firewall. Prefer used. Thanks, Dennis

Make sure your gas tank is properly vented to the atmosphere. Otherwise, as gas is used and air is not let back in a vacuum will develop and stall it out. For the brake problem, make sure the MC pushrod has a tiny bit of slack, as the lack of same can keep it from totally releasing.

It's a Jeep. Like I previously said, they had their own ideas...:unsure: G744

I'd buy Korean dog-bone bushings, if the crazy tarriffs didn't make 'em Gold.

Yep, Kaiser Jeep Corp has always had a 'way' about their designs, for better or worse. I bet it chapped their a$$ to have to build 2.5 & 5 tons according to plans of others for those juicy contracts back in the day.

The horn is fed 24V to one terminal on same, the other goes to the horn button switch, looking for a ground to complete the circuit . Worst to happen, it will honk. Won't hurt anyone... I have seen the column wire twisted in two from a million turns over the years.

A right front blowout on a banked turn did it for me, back in the mid 70's. Made a mess out of the things like my hardtop, bed sides, all the windshield stuff, and hood. The only injuries were me & the wife with Pepperoni-sized lacerations on our plams, somehow.

Don't forget the tank needs to get air back in as the gas goes out. Most of the time the gas cap has a selector inside, set to 'open' or 'vent'. D

Ah man, those Cummins repowers are everywhere. If that Tornado fails again, get yerself a Detroit 4-53 silver turbo mated to a Spicer 3053 and make that glorious 2-stroke noise! D

Yep, plenty plated HMMWV's around here.

Indeed, but my reply isn't so much about powerful wrenches for lugs, rather the fact that tire shops habitually run them up way too tight. OTR trucks on freeways always make me a little nervous, are they flying along with hubs full of weakened lugs? Maybe the newer hub-centered wheels use...
