    Florida DMV and Temporary Tag

    I got mine from Ft Jackson last year, and its a good strong runner. Scrapman also recovered a truck or two from there. Tim @ Ft Jackson is alright, although some arm twisting was needed today to get him to let me inflate the tires in a 5 ton trailer I was picking up. I needed to use an elec...

    Florida DMV and Temporary Tag

    It depends on who is in charge at the DMV office at the time. They usually say no to the temp tag. I've been through this many times. :-(

    50/50 mix of used motor oil & E85 in the Deuce?

    Wouldn't Powerservice Diesel 911 additive do the same thing since it is mostly alcohol? It would emulsify any water, but possibly damage rubber in the fuel system.

    GL is extremely helpful when it comes to preview.

    Warner Robins AFB is like that too. Just show up, no appointment needed.

    Synchromesh manual trans fluid

    I do know that it is recommended for the manual in my Jeep TJ, and Dodge pickups. It lists the Chrysler spec on the bottle. For the deuce, I just throw in NAPA 90wt GL1 that I get by the pail. Can you get that Pennzoil stuff by the 5 gal bucket?

    Massively out of balance parking break drum M35A2

    No, but we've had the entire shoes assembly eject itself out the bottom of the truck onto the ground. Dad popped the clutch in 1st or 2nd with the e-brake on. :rolleyes: Unless it was horrendous, I don't see how driveline vibration could break your motor mount rivets, but stranger things have...

    Getting redirected

    With Dell, malware comes with the machine free of charge and installed too. I put together my own computers now with components/software from newegg. Malwarebytes is good stuff though.

    Bleeding the fuel filter on a 818

    Heh, I use a small one gallon plastic can with a small spout, just for that purpose. That makes it much easier to fill the fuel filter canister.

    CARC paint;how to remove-yet another question...

    Just wire brush the loose stuff, needle scale the thick stuff, then paint over everything. Just doing that would be better than some of the motor pool paintjobs I've seen.

    Help (SOS) for flyusn99

    Well, if James goes with the soft top open with the .50 cal mounted, empty .50 casings dumped all over the interior of the truck would be too cool. :grd: Don't get pulled over by LE though. :shock:

    Synthetic oil

    The primary advantage of synthetic oil IMO is the higher flash point of synthetic gives you more turbo bearing protection (less coking) from a hot shutdown. I'd rather give it a few minutes of idle.

    Bleeding the fuel filter on a 818

    Using the primer to fill the housing is tedious. When I change the filter, I clean the housing thoroughly, put the new filter in, then carefully fill with clean diesel with the spout between the filter and housing. I fill it about an inch short of the housing rim, then install. I've never...
