    My new M151A2 and trailer

    Not sure if the springs are weak or if it just needs shocks. Kinda soft and bouncy.

    Rops

    Anyone know where to get the ROPS for the M151A2. My son will be driving next year and would rather be a little safer.

    My new M151A2 and trailer

    Well I have not been on in a while.....life issues.......so to make myself feel better I got me a new toy. 1970 M151A2 and M416 trailer. The M151 has not been cut. Last ran around 1993 or sometime there after. The only rust is the front of the floor pans and front cross member. Not very bad...

    Tow Bar

    I have 2 of them but don't have anything to use them on. Thought about putting one on the M725 but need to fix the tranny as it is a lawn ornament right now.

    Tow Bar

    Is this tow bar used for towing or just fast recovery?

    No power EGT's up there HELP

    OK I talked to a guy that worked on them some 25 years ago. He thought maybe a broken injector tip and the cylinder might be loading some until it fires. I cracked the nut on the injector on all six. One at a time. They all lugged the engine down when the fuel was squirting out. Will it...

    No power EGT's up there HELP

    Might be an indicator but from what little I know about the timing is the gear can move causing timing to get off. If this is true it fits what has been going on. It has slowly gotten worse and worse until now the EGT's are way high and no power with lots of smoke. I think if it was the...

    I am leaning towards timing issue. How do you check / adjust timing. I have never been in a multi fuel.

    No power EGT's up there HELP

    Don't know how timing would get off. Have not done anything around the IP. I picked up a 977? and towed it home and might have strained the motor and caused an issue. I will check the pipe from air cleaner to turbo and if not that I am thinking replace with a running takeout and be done. By...

    No power EGT's up there HELP

    OK IT's F**KED. Pulled the air filter. Filter not bad, few spots but OK. Left it off. Pulled the pipe from the turbo to the flex pipe. Left it off. Turbo spins free. I can hear it spool with pipe off. Before I pulled exhaust pipe I could hear, almost sounded like compressed air, like...

    Muffler is flow through type. I have not checked it for obstructions. Lots of black smoke.

    No power EGT's up there HELP

    OK I swaped fuel lines and bypassed the FDC. 50% better but still 50% from whaer it should be. Added about 20 gallons of high dollar diesel. Drove to town and back. Had to really watch it. EGT's would hit 13,000 really quick. Got home and let it idle for about 10 minutes and EGT's was...

    Have Gun In Action

    First year in a while I did not have one of my trucks there at the air show. Kind of withdrawal syndrome.
