I got a medium towbar (30k lbs).... Dunno if it's good enough but... I'm just outside Tacoma...

So, noticed on the highway, steady throttle application, that it will surge a bit at certain spots.. Thought it was air in the line... Now, I notice a distinct lack of power.... and... now... going up a small hill, I can maintain power at low RPM, but as pedal goes farther to the floor, I lose...

You're taking this WAY too seriously.. :D remove the headlights/tail lights rub grease on anything you don't want painted. Paint. remove grease. :D

That truck was used for on base contractors.... Howdy from just South of Tacoma.. :D

Yup, and you have yourself a new slave host as well, so if you have another .mil vehicle, and a slave cable, you're good to go... :D Sooooo nice being able to walk up to a dead 900 series, plug it in, wait a couple minutes, then crank it over and hear it roar to life...

HF has a magnetic spray can holder for $10, fits 2 drinks perfectly. A little OD paint and you're off to the races. http://www.harborfreight.com/magnetic-spray-can-and-screwdriver-holder-69320.html

slow to crank or cranks a long time before catching? AFTER the resistor bank or before?

Removal, but I'll give you a cookie anyway.. :D Cylinder siezed..popped out steering wheel lock pawl.. removed ignition bar.... Dropped the steering column..removes ignition switch... Will be rewiring with a racecar style switch and pushbutton start.....i think..lol Its running now..using...

I'll just leave this here and let you guys wonder what I did with my CUCV today.... :twisted:

I got a camo tarp from Harbor Freight for $3...... Good to have around... http://www.harborfreight.com/4-ft-6-inch-x-6-ft-6-inch-camouflage-tarp-46409.html

Brad? Must've caught him on a good day... I've been trying to buy a 923 from him but he insists he's gonna fix it up first..... and I want it as-is..

Wow. Didn't expect it to be that heavy. I plan on removing the slide out portions of my M934 (floor and ceiling, basically) and permanently keeping it closed... I was expecting some weight savings but... that's substantial.... I might be able to drop 2klbs+ if the entire assembly is near 5 tons...

Channel locks won't press down hard enough to get a good crimp, and if you ARE getting a good crimp with channel locks, then you're using a low quality connector or you're a body builder, heh. Ratcheting crimpers aren't that expensive, only about $30... and if you want to use a tool that you...

Yes, please check your tire dates... :D

The muzzle is 14x1 LH.... Most soviet weapons are LH thread for muzzle devices.

My AK would beg to differ... :D

Glow plugs draw a current at a certain voltage....depending on glow time. Let's use AC60G since they're popular.... Each draws roughly 9A, so 9 * 8 = 72, so you're looking at about 72A (The 200A I quoted is for the welleman quick start plugs, which can draw ~20A a piece, still a hair less...

As far as wire goes..... Hit up your local welding supply shop.... Welding wire is high strand count and very flexible, and not super expensive...

Except the load isn't JUST the + line, it's the COMPLETE circuit... back to the ground or negative... So you're looking closer to 15 or 20', and that doesn't take into account what the ground wire is that you have from the battery - to the block... as the block is used as the ground for the...

6ga is insufficient for the glow plug relay if you bypassed the resistor. You will be drawing ~200A through that wire.. I ran a 1 ga cable to the solenoid then a short 1ga jumper to the 12V post .
