I'll be very interested to hear how this works out for you. How did you happen to choose that motor? I assume you be including regenerative braking?

Doesn't the stock carb have a separate idle mixture adjustment? If so, is the idle mixture set too lean? I'm not very familiar with these engines, but hesitancy coming up from idle in my chainsaws (once they are warmed up) is almost always from the idle mixture set too lean. I realize that a...

Some good discussion in this thread: Etw1 & engine tuning

OK. I misunderstood when you said "I’ve searched for the relay that came with the truck". You weren't talking about the original truck.

I thought the starter on an M37 was activated directly by the foot switch, with no relay involved?

I considered one of those, but the ball was far to high off the ground for use with any of my trailers. (I have Michelin 11.00R16 tires on the truck, which accounts for some of the height, but even with stock tires, the pintle hitch is still too high.)

Is it a stock 230 engine? If so, I hope you are only driving the truck on level ground

Which is exactly why I wanted a frame mounted hitch, and chose one with longer surface which bears on the frame to distribute the load well across the frame (lighter rated hitches only bear on the frame for a little over a foot on each side). I did contact the manufacturer about whether is was...

As mentioned in my initial post, the whole point of my search was that I did not want to use a receiver which just bolts on to the rear cross member. I need a large drop from the receiver to get my ball to a reasonable height. That makes for a long lever arm putting a twisting moment on the rear...

I emailed Peter (of Peter Debella Jeep Parts). Here is his response:

History in Motion?

What is the parts availability and reliability like for those transmissions?

Amsoil Zrod 10W-30 is what I started using at the first oil change after I bought my M37. It's been working fine. It's expensive stuff as oil goes, but I'm basically changing once per year, so not that big a deal.

I'm no ignition system expert, but I thought the capacitor in a Points & condenser (a.k.a. capacitor) system was about more than noise filtering. Isn;t it there to help prevent burnign and pitting of the points? Or is this a different capacitor.

I've never experienced Stabil causing any of those problems, nor have I heard of it before. Have others seen this issue?

Only the 3rd and 4th gears were synchronized in a stock M37.

Were you adjusting the idle speed screw or the idle mixture screw? My manual has them correctly identified in one place, but has the identities reversed in another picture.

In his initial post, he stated that he has "good spark" and "checked all 6 plugs for spark all good". If in fact that is correct, wouldn't that tell us that the coil and condenser are good? (unless they have intermittent problems).
