    Oil pressure question

    I have a bit of a question,,, When I first got Big green ugly My oil pressure ran at around 45 lbs cold and backed off to 35 when at operating temp (165 to 180). Now my oil pressure is at 50 cold and 45 at operating temp. I did change the oil and filters about a month after I got the truck, Also...

    Took the Deuce to work today

    Some things I did learn today. 1. With creative use of straps you can carry an RV awning that is the length of the truck no problem. 2. Orb spiders are not pleasant creatures to share ones shirt with. 3. While 45 MPH is plenty fast for me in the Deuce other road users apparently have differing...

    Finally got my first Deuce

    Here is a suggestion. Go through the TM's until you find one you need and just print off that section. Then put the sheets in some heavy duty sheet protectors and then in a three ring folder. That's what I have been doing as I need them. MUCH better than trying to print off all of them at...

    Finally got my first Deuce

    Congratulations and Nice looking Deuce,:D I know it's already been said, But find and download the TM's, They are a real lifesaver! The truck itself is actually pretty simple to work on.

    fuel return line noise

    One thing about the Deuce, It's a real concert of rattles, taps bangs, squeaks, groans, pops, and a whole bunch of less idetifiable noises. Enough to REALLY drive you nuts if you have a bit of OCD,,,

    hydrolocked deuce engine

    Isn't that why one should chock the wheels and keep the parking brake in good repair? Also, NOT leave a Deuce parked in gear.

    Axle Seal/Hub Thoughts

    While we are on the subject of rear axle seals I remember sombody here on SS posting somwhere about updating the rear outer seal( the one against the plate that the brake shoes mount to) with a seal that allows you to run with oil filed hubs. I have used the serch but cannot find any info on...

    For what i'ts worth after I put on a spin on filrt kit my time to full pressure at idle(30 P.S.I) went from 15 seonds to 8 seconds. If I let the truck sit for a day or so it will take 8 seconds to build up pressure, However, If it sits for just a few hours it will build pressure almost...

    Uses for Deuces

    Took it to work and back, (almost 100 miles round trip) While at work towed a firetruck from the firehouse to the hangar where I can work on it. Sorry, No photos,,, They sorta needed the flightline.

    Installing new primary filter

    Yeah, Also kicking the idea of just using spin on adapters for the secondaries. I like the idea of relocating the primary altogether though. Never have liked where it's at.
