Thanks very much for the great suggestions guys and PJ for the link to the older post. There is a lot of useful information there. And with the temperature to resistance conversion chart now I can test the integrity of both the gauge and sender as well.My son is also lending me his IR...

We got this truck last Winter and have been working on it the last few months. So it hadn't really been driven much. This Spring we got it out on the toad and noticed that it was running up around 220 after going up and down some hills for a few miles. I drained the old antifreeze, which...

Hi guys, The last guy who replaced the tachometer cable on this truck apparently didn't feel like dealing with the lower L bracket and so in order to keep it away from the fan belt he eliminated that bracket and routed the cable behind the pipe that feeds the oil cooler. Over time this...

I recently picked up this 71 Kaiser, and it has the type of transfer case that I'm told is supposed to engage the front axle automatically when slippage is detected. I'm told that these were apparently very troublesome, the adjustment procedure is a nightmare, and most never worked well...

I'm slowly working my way through all the problems on this truck we recently bought and now I'm at the wipers. With 40 pounds of air registering, the drivers side wiper works fine however the passenger side will track to the right and not return. You can tell that it's getting air because...

Interesting video. Looks like what I did way back when. Thanks for sending that, however I noticed that it didn't mention the six locking tabs that were mentioned in the TM. Also does anyone know of a video that shows getting the tire off? Lenny

I borrowed a stubby wrench from a guy down the road and that did it. I feel kind of stupid. I Should have thought of that. Thanks, Lenny

Hi Guys I have to fix a flat on one of my tires. These are standard 900/16 ND's on OEM military rims It's been at least 15 years since I've had to do this and I was a little foggy on how to do it so I looked in the TM about this. The book seems to outline the procedure: deflating the tire...

Hi Guys I'm trying to remove the tach cable from the engine side and it seems impossible to get a wrench on to turn it. Is there a trick to this? Special tools perhaps? Nothing special is mentioned in the TM about this. Thanks, Lenny

That's a lot of great ideas guys. Thanks a bunch. Lenny

I'm getting my recently acquired 71 Kaiser road worthy and I realized that there is no license plate light. I was just wondering what some of you guys have done to provide this. I'm sure that I can find something at a place like Autozone that would work after changing the lamp, but I'd like it...

Thanks Diesel Bob for the detailed explanation and the pictorial. It's simple enough. Lenny

I didn't realize that was adjustable. How do you do that? Lenny

I'll have to check it with an external gauge. Thanks guys. Lenny

Sorry, that should have read M35A2, (my failing eyesight)....

Does anyone know what is the typical air pressure in a fully charged M45A2 air tank? My air pressure gauge is messed up. Also what is the tank capacity? Thanks, Lenny

Makes perfect sense. I'll forgo the rebuild. Thanks. Lenny

That's definitely cheaper than 67.00. Thanks, Lenny

Has anyone used one of these? They're about 5.00. Thanks, Lenny...

I would be able to remove the two broken lengths from front and tach end has anyone ever successfully replaced just the inner cable? I guess that I should ask if it's even available. Lenny
