    Nice looking truck. [thumbzup] I think the lights and siren in this case are to alert other drives to a slow moving vehicle. :roll:

    Leak behind dash? Dripping off the front axle shift lever? Read here.

    That is normal in the operation of the valve. It is releasing the pressure from the cylinder on the transfer case. You should not have air escaping at any other time. As far as the oil it most likely is residue from the moisture and oil vapor that has accumulated in the...

    New to me mep-018a

    Thanks. It was up for auction at the same time and base as the MEP-003. Won both at the same time so pickup was easy. I think I won it for around $500 ~ $600 if I remember correctly. I have a couple items I need to order from Saturn also. Good luck with yours.

    New to me mep-018a

    I have one and use it as backup for my MEP-003. Have used it once or twice over the years to run the house. I need to pull the baffles and replace the return oil hoses.

    Shutter box operation

    X2 what Cuad4u said. In all the winters around here I have never had the intake valve in the cold position. Never any problem with hard starts or smokey running from unburned fuel. Mine does not have the ASK so yours should stay even warmer running in the winter. 2cents

    Deuce keeps getting air in fuel system

    Correct. There is no check valve of any type in the original Olympic pumps. Can't say about the newer Parker pumps.

    Historical Responsibility?

    Here's my 2cents. It's you vehicle so I would say it's your decision on what to change or keep original. If I had that nice of a example as you described I would tend to keep it as original as possible partly because so many are customized to fit the owners needs or wants it's nice to see how...

    Illinois to Maryland

    My $. 2cents , Starting from Indianapolis I usually take I70 east to Washington Pa then I79 south around Morgantown WVa to I68 east which runs right to western Md. Much nicer road than turnpike and no tolls.

    Piston Rings Worn Out, Time for a Rebuild

    One of the big problems with the original “Gapless” design of 30 years ago was some designs used an overlap end that under extended use or very high compression had a bad habit of shearing off which lead to a somewhat dubious reputation in the early days of the designs.

    M35A2 trouble shooting starter/electrical problem

    Taking a WAG it almost sounds like a hydro lock condition which could explain the and as soon as the starter stalls it creates a dead short to ground and the weakest link gives up which includes lead battery terminals that melt at a relatively low temp considering the...
