. Well, I would suggest that you disassemble the fuel pump again. Carefully inspect the diaphragm. Even a pinhole will let gas through there. Any chance you might find a replacement diaphragm? Maybe look at White Owl over in Kinston NC? I would let the rear main seal (RMS) draw back up to...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Be sure to download the TMs (Technical Manuals) for whatever you decide to buy. They are a free download here on the site. Heck yes, post up your questions and several of the guys will most likely post up...

. I found the MWO for Expansible bodies - Rework for Asbestos M313 (NSN 2330-00-772-5273) M447 (NSN 2330-00-542-5709) M447C (NSN 2330-00-472-9999) M749 (NSN 2330-00-587-2454) M750 (NSN 2330-00-926-7035) M291A1 (NSN 2320-00-880-4642) M291A1D (NSN 2320-00-880-4647 M291A2C (NSN 2320-00-907-0707)...

. It is pretty amazing... Really, really nice looking!

. I suggest Rotella SAE 15W40. Pumpkins and Gearboxes, 80W90

. Yes sir, and the numbers written on the terminal block (second pic from the bottom) might be worth investigation. The numbers are hand written on the connectors. Wonder who did that? Even more of a possibility is the issue that they might not be connected to the correct block... Those...

. Good Luck hunting for REO 330 (Comet) Motor Parts. We had started having trouble finding parts back in the 80's. White Owl (Kinston, NC) might have a few parts laying around. What we ended up doing was installing 300ci In-Line 6 Cylinder Industrial Ford motors in our REO's. They bolted up...

. Yes Sir! The ground rod driver that we had built at Bouligny would do that... Punch the ground rod into the ground, test, and keep screwing more lengths to it. Eventually an end would stick up in the air waving like a flag on a pole... The guys would get their bolt cutters and hack it off...

. Not sure about the Governor Control Unit, but there is a thread on rebuilding the Holly. https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/holly-carburetor-model-885-ffg-tm-9-1826d.223601/

. Looks good to me! $500 or $650 either or is a great buy. Especially if it starts and runs...

. Looking Good! Amazing how the work happens so quickly...

. Yes it is! Its tough though... I bought one 40 years ago. $18.95 back in the day.

. Hi @Plasa , I don't know for sure, but touching your "drip point" and smelling the oil might help your diagnosis. I am guessing that it won't be hydraulic fluid. Although, the hose connector may well be leaking too. The point of the drip for that may not actually be dripping though... It...

. Well... I think they look just fine as you built them. It would be neat if you could cut out holes in the rims - but that will take a lot of time. Honestly, I am not sure the time would be worth the effort...

. I am really loving this Deuce... Looks sooo neat!
