    Hey Glenn, Yep...trying to explain to them I'll be on leave until January has been a pain. That and no "real" job yet..... That sounds like a plan. I have pictures and measurements. Shouldn't be making some V-cuts, bending to shape, then re-welding. See y'all soon!!

    Nice score Keith!! Looking forward to seeing everyone in another week or so....:beer: The check-out process hasn't been all that painful yet. It's dealing with the VA finance folks that's been the pain.

    Physical size of fuel tanks 16 vs. 20 gallon

    Since the installation of a 31 gal tank in my M1009, I have been able to go about 400 miles between fill ups. When I first installed the tank, I would let get to just below 1/4 tank before fill up. At that point it would take about 19-20 gallons. Since then, I let it go to E. When I do fill...

    m1009 dies if you let off the gas too quickly, thoughts?

    Right after this post surfaced, I had a similar problem. Only did it when the engine was cold. I added some sea foam to the tank and she's been fine.
