    M1085a1 Wrong Fuel, Now Won’t Start

    If it was tried to be started, there is a good chance that the rings are burnt at least VERY DRY and not sealing, with NO lube going though the ip, there is a good that the ip got hurt very bad. Try pulling the injectors, pore some motor oil to lube the rings, let it set for a bit, when oil is...

    Heating a seized engine. Ideas?

    Yes I agree on common sense BUT using a porter power it is very easy to get high pressure real quick when dealing with captive pressure. ONE high over pressure is all that is needed to break a lot of things, unless you have done this MANY times, have pressure setting valves (valves that can be...

    M1070 Tech & Tips

    For more hp, the pump, injectors, computer, gets tweaked or or replace, a few other things as well, as far as mpg, not going to happen unless gearing to the ground is changed, as stock nada because the engine is a high rpm use, the power band is close to the top of the rpm range, this is the...

    Heating a seized engine. Ideas?

    By doing this you stand a very good chance of bending a rod, breaking rings, breaking piston lands (where the rings fit on the piston), bending/crack the crank, blowing out the side of the block, crack between cylinders, any or all of the list can happen at the same time, there are a few more...

    Heating a seized engine. Ideas?

    Heating the block unless SUPER hot will NOT work, even super hot most likely won't work, the reason I say this is the stuck rings will move with the block as it expands, the rings needs to be compressed to be installed, then they expand for a tight fit to the block , as the block gets hot from...

    Realistic selling price of m1078

    Why, that would make THREE POS that I would need to get rid of, the FMTVs are a oversize cucv, driving is doing what is needed, NOT OWNING is also doing what is needed. Thanks Porky ;)

    Realistic selling price of m1078

    Well this all depends on who you are trying to sell it too, some will pay a extra high price, then there are others like me who will charge you to take it off your hands.

    24v ignition coil

    [/COLOR] At the time the market was quite high, most vehicles in the military were 24v gassers, a lot of cranes and other heavy equipment, big compressors, big gen sets, ect, ect was powered by 24v gassers, the 6602 that is in the early 5ts as well as other heavy over the road truck engines...

    24v ignition coil

    What I found out was that everyday 6v and 12v coils will not work because the windings are not as thick as the 24v version, this means that 6/12v coils will burn the winding up rather fast. I am guessing that you could use a 24v coil on a 6v/12v system but not the other way around (6v has...

    24v ignition coil

    I took off from one battery, ran the power though a military dash flip switch to the points then the coil, this was a temp install that still is installed, I have a 24v relay that I planed to run the power though then to the flip switch, this will cut all power when the dash master was off, at...
