    No start on multifuel engine

    Thank you! Piston or snap ring? Think he means Tappet assembly, Plunger outer spring, Plunger spring seat and spring retaining ring.

    Engine Wont Run After Setting Up For 2 YEARS.

    Yea believe it is higher than 60 psi. So with the over pressure built into the secondary fuel filter it would only open if the was an over pressure in the system while at higher RPM. Not when shutting down because at idle we have only 30 psi and the system bleeds off through the over flow valve...

    Hurricane Ian projected to reach cat 4 - FL panhandle landfall

    All good here just rain and some wind. It did clear the dead palm branches from my palm trees. Looks like there are many that were not so lucky.

    Hurricane Ian projected to reach cat 4 - FL panhandle landfall

    Hope he will be ok as it is not looking good for that area. Me pretty far inland from both coast lines but yea winds and rain for me. Got the main sail down and batten down the hatches is about all I can do. Plenty of water and food on hand and 8K light tower Gen. ground hooked up and ready to...

    Advice on Buying a 5 Ton

    I have owned plenty of 809 series trucks and never done the air cut off mod. Just said how it was done. Now you have to remember when off roading with the sprag working do not roll backwards while in any forward gear or neutral. Also do not roll forward while in reverse gear. This will lock up...

    Advice on Buying a 5 Ton

    Yes just by having an air switch or cutting off the air to the poppet valve. There is the rubber air line that goes from the passenger frame rail to the poppet valve on the Trans. If you do a switch valve you want to make sure the Transfer case air cylinder does not have any air held in forward...

    "High Flow" air tank cable drain valves

    Myself I just drained the water if the was any not the whole tank. A good air dryer pulls it out and a good upgrade for the Deuce with the air pack.

    M35A2 vs. M35A3 In Snow and Ice

    Post whoring learning to drive in the ice and snow. Having air brakes on my triaxle I would keep the rear brakes in spec but back off the front just a little more than the rear. That way it would help keep the front from locking up and keep you able to steer. Yes some of the older truck had that...

    M35A2 vs. M35A3 In Snow and Ice

    Having driven both but not in snow or ice my .02. My A3 that had engine oil in the Trans. when slowing down and lower gears kick in you could fell the lunge forward. That might cause the rears to slip on the ice or snow. Now if the rear kicked out just enough to send the truck in a slide slide...

    Slip yoke question

    Well sorry you feel that way just trying to help the OP with correct info. As G744 pointed out we might have to check sag of unloaded axle. Here we would have to have everything installed and lift the whole truck up from the rear using the frame and see how far the axle drops. Then to check axle...

    Slip yoke question

    Looks like your putting the cart before the horse. I used a 105 trailer bed so I had to be real careful of axle placement so wheel wells of trailer lined up looking good with axle. Yes I used my old drive shaft and had if I remember 4 inches to length. This does not matter if you use a cut down...

    Deuce no start, have gone thru a few steps already

    Yep just about just do not loose the little spring in the dirt. There are many things that are simple we check before we pull any major parts. Start with easy move on from there.

    Slip yoke question

    Yep no torque rods on bob job so wrong info. Do not know but unlike "someone else" yes I have bobbed a Deuce and two 5 tons. Do not know if it was right way wrong way but here is what I did and worked out fine. Before I did anything I measured the free space on my slip joint. Then did the bob...

    Oil bath front hubs.

    Had it done for 2 years and no leaks. Did sell the truck with no leaks.

    Oil bath front hubs.

    I did it to the rear of my 1088. As for adjusting the level of fluid you still just service the same way just more fluid just takes longer to fill.
