The deuce I just bought has 1 master cylinder with 2 brake fluid filler caps, 2 slave cylinder airpacs, one on passenger one on driver. Was told it is a newer system in case the air system fails, so you still have brakes. Have looked through many of the manuals and cannot find anything to work...
Oh, I forgot to ask why I don't seem to hear the turbo any more when the engin is running? I would swear I could hear it before. I have added 1 gal. of the Lucas oil treatment to the motor oil. Would that quiet down the turbo? Also, the engine runs smooth and sounds great.

Thanks you all for your fast replies. Got a friend to help and they turned the truck over while I stood on the front bumper. 1st attempt produced a nice cold start up with no noise. I let it run for about 5 minuts and decided to shut it down. 10 minutes later they tried again. This time I saw...
Screeching on the passenger side of the M35a2?

M35 brakes, I definitely screwed up!!!
Thanks all for your responses. As I explained in my original post, I am new at the M35 program, but have had experience in the past with Willys jeeps and other vehicles. Also, I was aware that the DOT 5 is the recomended fluid. What changed my mind was the...
Thanks for the response. To late and a stupid mistake. We used it and it is in the system. How do I get it out? I did this yesterday 01-30-11. Is it to late?

Hello, I just bought an M109A3 and I'm new at this. The truck has a soft pedal. It's in great shape and I believe has low mileage and hours. My buddy and I where going to bleed the brakes, but where not sure what to use in the master cyl. There is a tag inside the door with the name of the unit...
