    2nd alternator, 12V

    Lt Dan instead of a solenoid I would use a solid state relay far less current draw and very reliable. another thing I would try is the glow plug relay off a diesel truck very high current capacity and low amp draw. Roy

    Cost of M35A2 465 Diesel motor oil and filter change??

    M543A2 finally home from drum. Thanks Doghead.

    hyd hoses don't look bad. i have a friend who has all the equipment to make hoses so i can at least keep the price reasonable. all the radiator hoses are very rotten and cracked that will be one of the first things i do.
