Check your oil before you crank it every time....that happened to my Cummins in the 816 and when I fired it up it ran away because the fuel/oil mix got sucked into the cylinders and the only way I shut it down was by cutting off the air.
Once you find the source of the leak you will need to...
Did you check to see if there is a "Jam nut" under the knob holding it in place?
You might apply some heat with a propane torch....(very carefully) to expand the metal bushing that is inside the plastic knob. Get it warm and spray some Liquid Wrench or other lub onto it...the heat will suck it...
Ted's Trucks and stuff.........Dothan, AL
'- Teds Trucks N Stuff Store - Military vehicles and parts, milirary surplus items'
He has a lot of parts and most of the time beats the "usual suspects" by a few bucks and on shipping.
They have always been good to me.
TWILIGHT ZONE THEME PLAYS
"You're traveling through another dimension -- a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mindless inefficiency. A journey into an arduous land whose boundaries are that of frustration. That's a signpost up ahead: your next stop: Govenment Liquidation!"
Walter....man that turned out better than I thought it would...good job on the cuts.
They would also be great to make an over the cab rack for a deuce like the Canadians do.
They are about ten feet long in their original configuration.
In case anyone is interested I still have a few of the...
If memory serves me a SR-71 once flew from London to Los Angles in four hours and some change.....and they routinely outran surface to air missiles......a quick getaway is a given in the "Blackbird".
They met the same fate as the Battleships....they cost too much to operate and technology...
Unless you are in Sibera.roflrofl
We used the Herman Nelsons in Germany to heat the Maint tent and occasionally two GP mediums hooked together for a large dining tent.
They suck fuel but could prob be ran on thinned down Waste Motor Oil or heated veggie.
ABH3 and all others........I stopped by the Cherokee County DMV today and asked my source about the issue you raised on page one of this thread.
She looked in her book of changes and updates and found NO NEW REGULATIONS concerning the registration of military vehicles built before 1975. NONE...
Bobbed......it's never too late for an "ATTABOY".
This is what Steelsoldiers is all about.
There are a few stinkers in every group but most folks I have met here are good people.
I try to help folks whenever I can and usually my efforts are returned in kind.
The OD Green Iron Addiction...
No really good way to do it.....I had a Plymouth Duster that had that stuff on it.
Acetone will dry the petroleum out of the asphalt base and it can be scraped or wire brushed off....it will take a lot of acetone and patience....do it in a well ventilated area and remember that acetone is very...
James...send me specifics as soon as you get them.. Can you recon the site and see how many MV's could fit (if it is a stripmall or such).
We might want to bring a crowd of SS and MVPA folks to meet the Gunny.
I'll see how many of the North AL gang want to head down.....we can do a convoy...
Here are some pics of mine being used as intended.
Remember..they have the same engine and driveline as the deuce (mine does not have a turbo). With a big load on you are not going anywhere fast...that's just a deuce.
You would be wrong Sir.
The M275 is lighter than a deuce and should not be used for flat towing anything heavier than it is...that is why it has a 5th wheel.
It's not that people don't want them....as stated above they are rare. You can buy several deuces for what you'll pay for a M275.
I have one and it would take $4500.00 to buy it in it's present condition (runs good, looks strange due to green fire dept paint).
I was in and out of the Army...
I had an issue where my card had expired and been renewed but not updated on GL.
I won an auction and the card was declined due to the date they had on file..they did not even run it since the expiration date said it was expired. No one called me..they said they emailed me but it prob went to...
You know being on this site is a sign of complete OD green iron addiction.:cookoo:
I can quit anytime I want to......shoot.....I hadn't logged on since......errrr.....this morning.:roll:
Side effects may include (but not limited to) glassy eyes, thousand yard stare (from surfing GL)...
