wrong, the T designates it was for military use,horsepower was 78hp. G741WAS THE DESIGNATION FOR PARTs assembly

ok, stop what your doing, if the truck runs and then shuts off, its your coil, because these coils are sealed with the distributor,if there is no air movement the coil overheats,get another new coil do not use someones old coil because it to could be bad,and do not leave the power lever on on...

ok,,

ok heres a little safety tip for guys with M37,to avoid a catastrophe go under the vehicle on the passenger side, find the big cable that runs over the drive shaft to the stater,it should be held by a wire clip,if not because it rusted and fell off,immediately support that cable,i used a heavy...

also,check your coil, if those vent lines are n ot connected to the distributor housing,your coil may have overheated and is shot, they will work for a while then get hot and stop, another thing is do not leave the power switch on on the dashboard, that is energizing the coil and also will...

hey guys just a little heads up, we just finished rebuilding our second M37, had the engine rebuilt machined etc., we were able to pull out the water distribution tube, a lot of guys ignore this part, ill tell you what we found. inside the the water distribution tube were 2 pieces of solder...

go to delta team decals, great place to do business with

also on military vehicles,the on-off switch must be turned off when not running the vehicle, if left on you are energizing the coil and after time it will heat up and seperate the windings inside the coil,causing a vehicle to run and then when the coil gets hot seperate and no current! a lot of...

if a vehicle runs for 20-30 minutes then shuts off, with no starving for gas then its electrical, my guess is you coil needs to get replaced,at some point your coil overheated and the secondary windiings are seperating inside the coil cutting off the current,put a new coil in, make sure the...

we almost done with our 2nd M37, engine has a complete machining and rebuild, transfer case taken off sent to local college mechanics school for rebuild, all fluids in axels changed, in process of body work and paint, box is off gettimg sandblasted,looking good runs and starts right up,like i...

7 degrees which way?,what we did with our m37s,both are rebuilt frame off, is we adjusted by vacuum,that seems to work best on these engines,put a vacuum gauge on the intake manifold and when you get the highest vacuum your good

i would use the old needle make sure its clean,and reinstall it,the aftermarket kits a re junk, they dont hold to specs.

no it did not come through the vent lines unless the crankcase ventilation tube was disconnected or plugged which i have seen done,remenber those distributors haven't seen service since the military,mostg guys shy away from pulling the distributor,one bolt,disconnect the cap put it on the bench
