    Automotive Paint vs Behr

    What kind of Automotive one part paint are you considering? Nothing from an auto paint supplier looks anything close to military ultra flat CARC.

    Non-turbo to turbo upgrade

    Does the Eastern kit include the actual turbocharger? I don’t think so. Eastern is highly recommended by me, always happy with many purchases. Oh and NA deuce engines are badazz, love mine and it’s smoke trail. Plenty of power.

    M1123 transmission

    Problem identifying proper color?! 34052

    Try Sherwin Williams. They have the formulas in their system and make these paints for uncle. You can get these colors in acrylic latex exterior flat.

    LMTV M1083 no service brake release air leak

    Did you replace the check valve in your picture? The system is set up to only take in air from the front emergency glad hand, not allow air out there. If air is coming out, the check valve in your picture is corroded and stuck open. Info: FMTV Refuses to charge air from front emergency...

    You may find installing the injection lines on the IP is much easier on the bench, then dropping the assy onto the engine like a big SPIDER. You have to crack the lines at the injectors anyway to bleed.

    M38A1 Fuel gauge

    I always thought all MS fuel gauges had the same electrical values regardless of era. Before you buy stuff, double check the grounding of both the gauge and sender.

    Rwh will tell you it’s best to replace those crusty old IPs before you get stranded somewhere. No point in opening it.

    M37 100 amp generator--seeking information

    There is a mil troubleshooting guide available. The system is very reliable as long as you replace the ancient selenium rectifier with the newer type with discrete diodes. The system makes a cool growling sound. The cables are out there. If you have the selenium rectifier and it fails, the...

    M38A1 Fuel gauge

    My guess is that the china made sender does not have the proper resistance values. On mine, I ran a backup ground wire to the sender since the tank is somewhat insulated sitting on those cushion straps.

    Wondering about a JETA Power MD-301815, TMs, etc

    What Diesel engine does it have? Does it turn over? I have a monster like that and the engine is full of rain for decades, not sure why I haven’t scrapped it.

    M915A4

    Recall that the engine in these started life in 44 year old M915s, so it’s possible the starter is ancient too.

    M915A4

    She’s a beauty. Does the volt gauge go to zero when you push the starter? Fuzzy what crank inhibits do these have? I think none other than the Allison controller being in neutral. Check the starter for bad connections.
