    WTK: V100 Transfer Case value

    I have been meaning to have some cases cast. The plan is to fab the core myself (said that last year) and have a foundry owner buddy do the rest, make the box and pour. He casts only Al but knows a pal that can do Fe if I so choose. Plan A is to do one in Al, as a test, then 4 in Fe. Plan B is...

    Need help with 361 M75

    Correction- The -24 TM has intake manifold bolt torque at 45-55 ft*lbs, not the 5-6 ft*lbs figure above. The lower figure is for the old BB Hemi. Sorry.

    Need help with 361 M75

    To elaborate on BT3.3's comment. The cam is gear drive w/o idlers so it turns backwards. It has a mirror grind and can be found on ebay for about 70$. Suggest you carefully check bottom of filter can (stock cartridge style). It can become a sludge trap of sorts. There is also a filter bypass...

    V-100 M706 mystery. Anyone know these unit markings ?

    Anyone know these markings? Photos are all cropped from the same old Polaroid. Truck is a M706E1, Probably used by the Army, not Air Force, Marine Corps, ARVN... My guess US/F--, US/EO/8--. 1 CAV 1/9 was also found under paint. Suggestions? (for the markings in photo). Thanks. Jim

    NHC250 Cummins fuel rail pressure

    Me too. So do you remember what the number the 350 button was? I looked at that rear fuel rail port... If I remember correctly I thought it was a tough access due to the firewall being too close. For me it was more trouble than it was worth (dual feed). Then I have been know to be lazy...

    24 volt trailer wiring to 12v Using Relays Diagram

    Photo above My diagram above really sucks. Here is a photo w/ added clarification. Only 4 wires (from the army trailer cord) shown w/o cover, inside the box, at extreme left corner (tied together w/ zip tie) are being used. The photo does not show that some are not connected

    24 volt trailer wiring to 12v Using Relays Diagram

    I made that for my 1993 Talbert Equipment trailer. It has 2 bulbs on each side of tail, a Trucklite brake light (twin filament uses one) and a turn signal/ tail light (twin filament uses both), if I recall correctly. My 97 Ford Ranger has a factory module under back bumper between harness and...

    Ford Backhoe use during the 1960s/1970s?

    My 3500's transmission (2x2 w/H-L) shows a casting date around 65' (side, by your knee). If you need a page or two out of the manual I will scan and e-mail.

    Ingersoll Rand Gyro-Flo air compressor, lubrication info wanted.

    Mine too. Cold blooded w/poor throttle response above 1/2 throttle when warm. After going thru the carb and getting no improvement I went back and drilled the main from .040" to .046" and soldered shut all but 2 of the air ports on the top half of the nozzle (there were 8, which by themselves...

    Ingersoll Rand Gyro-Flo air compressor, lubrication info wanted.

    My air pump has a 125CR14898 cast into the top in big #. That 125 matches the R- 125 mod # on the chassis data plate . The x in column on far left. Must be the same as the CFM
