    How to determine a viable fuel for the multifuel deuce engine

    Sounds like the by product of diesel burning. You can always mix it with something that burns hotter and even the burn out.

    Why do people bash the CUCV?

    I think if you watch the CUCV pages you will note that most of the problems are of an electrical nature......my take is a lot of that is due to the "militarization" of the vehicle. I drove one when I was in Korea (I was the Battalion Commanders driver). We had a Blazer, a HUMVEE and a little...

    I am not 18 anymore

    I have one of those kitchen step stools....I use that to climb onto the bumper and then as stated above walk the hood up by going along the fender. NOTE!!!!!! Always latch the hood up with the spring latch attached for the purpose. I saw a guy in Gemany get clobbered when the wind blew the...

    getting a title but my nuame is not on the SF97

    The original SF-97 holder should have gotten the vehicle titled in his name before selling it to another party. I had the same issue with a M916 I sold.....I had to title it in Alabama and then sign that title over to the new owner. If you can't find the original guy you may have bought a...

    Jumping a 24 volt with a 12 volt

    The heavier the jumper cables the better. I have a set made out of welding cable and it will jump anything MV or civy. Using tiny jumper cables is asking for trouble.

    There is another thread about someone needing to get one from AL to Houston.....I would look into finding a stepdeck that could pick them both up and deliver them.....isn't Baton Rouge on the way to Houston?

    How Quiet can you make a m1009?

    If it has good mufflers (Flowmasters) you will hear the rattle of the engine rather than the noise from the exhaust.....we had a real problem when using them as OPFOR vehicles because you could hear them long before you saw them.

    How much fuel in an "Empty" tank?

    We always had spare fuel....it was just maddening that the dam truck would run out just a few miles from a planned fuel/rest stop. Myself and another member brought three deuces back from Arkasas a few years ago.....I was flat towing a deuce with a deuce (had my Ford Ranger pickup in the...

    Would this clutch work on an m35a2?

    "The truth is stranger than fiction Judgy Wudgy" The problem is that you are buying it off Egay.....which means shipping....if it don't work and the seller will take it back (big if) you have return shipping. I would try a local truck parts house such as Fleetpride FleetPride: Homepage and...
