Hi If the fan blade tips were painted red, I would have suspected safety warning turning part. Fan blade tips on all my engines are painted for that reason. The painted to protect from corrosion during long term storage, makes way to much sense to be the reason. Cheers Phil

Hi Try unplugoing the bailout connection a couple of times this sometimes cures the problem. Obvious question if you reverse the location of the headsets swap them at the bailout connection does the problem switch sides. If so likely bad head set. If problem doesn't move then swap the entire...

Hi What radio are you using? Using non military radios on VIC-1 I had an miss match between the military headset mic and what the radio needed.

Hi What you are looking for is a difference one side to the other, particularly if appears suddenly like one trip to the next. I shoot the outer hub and the swivel ball housing. I didn't follow up once on a 10 degree jump in front hub next trip smoke and with loose hub nut. See...

Gives you some data points to reffer back to Hi Though I don't have a 5 Ton I do have three old and heavy MVs, I've been using an IR gun to check a number of points on the truck as part of my post run check. Made up a check page with list wheels, hubs, engine oil pan, radiator transmission...
