    Clear Coat Over GCI 383 Green

    Heck just thin the 383 with 1/3rd Zylene. Gets pretty shiny that way. Other than that it is just an enamel, use the hardener then clear it.

    I work in this field

    I guess plasma cutters could be in this forum also. (while not 3d) I've done 3d design & 3d milling in building plastic injection molds, I run the CNC machining operation at work, exposed to 3d printing over a decade before it was called 3d printing, lol.

    Gas gauge and sending unit replaced, still no accurate fuel level

    The dash wiring also needs a good ground as well as battery to frame. Perhaps the float to coil relationship on the sender needs 'adjusting' This is just where I'd start looking. Hopefully someone that knows will chime in here.

    Gas gauge and sending unit replaced, still no accurate fuel level

    99% of all electrical issues on these are ground related. That being said, I have 3 of these ole Dodges in use and none of the gas gauges are accurate, each one reads different too. The M880 "E" is a 1/2 tank, M884 "3/4" is empty! The Ambulance "3/4" is full. Forgetting which read what can be...

    Need some help on identifying some marks on M886

    You will not find the pattern for the M886, I believe they used the M725 ambulance pattern. Many years back someone on here did up a pattern for them. screen name of Macgyver I think.

    M880 5.2 smoke coming out of air breather inlet

    With the 727 trans the pump does not circulate fluid while in park. I will put mine in neutral for a minute before putting in gear. It helps the stall out. Also trans fluid level cannot be checked in park, must be in neutral.

    I put a clear inline filter just before the fuel pump. Yes where the fuel line connects to the carb.
