Installed new fuel return line.
Used the brass tees.
Taking muffler off made that job so much easier.
Secured lines after photo.
They were really in bad shape.
The ones to the injectors were busted in half.
The plastic tees were strong and solid with no sign of degradation. Saving those.
I did not use clamps/ties at hose ends since this hose is designed not to have them.
Try to pull one off after install and you’ll break the hose before it slips off.
Use exact hose on the CUCV diesel and almost 10 years and not one has came off.
When taking muffler off, I turned it upside down and a literal handful of carbon chunks fell out.
1) Run generator hard for hours……….check!
The fuel tank needs attention.
Everything is leaking.
Have the brass well nut replacements ordered.
Can only find cork gaskets so far for the sending unit, etc.
Not a fan of cork gaskets.
Might just make my own out of felpro material.
Still waiting on parts.
Read an old thread that showed the civilian equivalent part number of the Water Temperature Sensor for this machine.
Took some digging but located some and ordered two.
JLG 91143314 WATER TEMP SENDER 100-240 F
Beware. Lots of China junk out there for this part.
There were a few dings on the top panel that I hammered straight. So much easier with aluminum. Came out great.
I almost tried to start it, but remembered that I’m still waiting on the correct parts for the fuse mod to arrive.
Everything needs a bath. Rags will only do so much.
