Badfish740,
why not use waste motor oil?
it only needs to be filtered, then run (less work).
one of the other members here used to run the oil I filtered straight into his Duce.
i plan on mixing mine 70 motor oil, 30 junk fuel.
currently my truck still has the tank of diesel that came with it...
fireman 5230,
Is that you infront of the O-11A?
I have an O-11B that I am restoring. I have seen one other O-11B and heard of a second one. But these are the only O-11B's I have been able to locate.
I know there are O-11A's at:
1. USAF Museum, Wright Patterson AFB
2. Edwards AFB Museum

PBRO,
I am leaving in a few minutes for Sacramento, to pick up two ejection seats (F-4 & B-52). These will be added to the F-14 seat I already have. If things work out, I will be getting a complete F-4 & Mirage cockpits to add to my collection.
The mity mite runs good and belongs to a friend...
Pbro,
We have probably crossed paths, at california city airport. I own the east 7 1/2 acres of the airport. (Also three hangers at main airport) I store my Deuce, and other military equipment at California City Airport. I also have several aircraft stored there including my newest project...
Filtering WMO
Group,
I have a Dieselcraft OC-50 centrifical filtering setup and it has worked great. So far I have filtered about 300-500 gallons of waste oil. My friends have been running it straight in their duces (my deuce still has the fuel it came with, but this year I will have to...
Last Sunday, I used my M35A2C in a Josh Abbott music video. Hopefully the video will be on CMT around April/May.
As for getting your vehicle in productions (film/video), they are always looking for vehicles to use in productions. It all biols down to knowing someone, or offering your vehicle...

Then today the wind took daown a couple of...
Sir,
I looked in my cobra parts manual and the part number is not there.
Then I looked in the AH-64 flight manual, and they have a similiar one.
I did not check the OH-58, UH-1 and UH-60 IPB's or Flight manuals.
But I can if you need me to.

Sir,
The biggest problem I see, is turning and parking.
Since you have an F350, you have a small idea of the problem.
But with the deuce multiply by two.
I will be driving my Chevy 3500 to Los Angeles later today, and will most likly have problems around town with it. Now if you live in a...
Guys,
While I have not personally run motor oil through my engine (still on the tank of fuel in the truck when purchased), I have several friends that have run motor I have filtered. The run the motor oil straight (no cutting).
My personal sugestion, is to run a mix (50/50- 75/25). There are...
Group,
My understanding is the Air Force first addopted the drop side, and did not need the winch. The Air Force seldom does cross country trecks on a normal bassis (like we did when I was in the Army).
On the later M35A3, I see most have drop sides after the rebuild. Now all I need is the...
Warthog,
Thanks for the reply, but I think I finally got it figured out with UPS.
What a pain, UPS required a label, and the city would not address the package.
They finally agreed to put a label on the package if I faxed it to them.
They should be on their way today.
Thanks

Group,
I purchased 20 ea, gas mask carrier from the city of Stillwater, OK on Ebay.
They require a local pickup, so I am looking for someone to pick them up and mail to me.
Thank You

Group,
I have a drum with an electric water heater element installed for heating the oil, but never use it. I just pump it into the centrifical filter & run for sevear hours, then pump it into my storage tank until I need it.
So far I have not gone through the first tank of fuel in my Deuce...
gunwriter,
Sorry, just looked at the smokestak page and saw your post there.
I would try two 12V batteries in series and see if that cures your problem.
LAterrrrrr
Avn-Tech
gunwriter,
As a military generator mech, I should be able to work through your problem.
But right now I do not have time.
Please post on:
Military MEP and Aircraft Gen-Sets - SmokStak
This is a form for generator collectors and mechanics (steel soldiers for generators).
Good Luck
