    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    Myself I would stay away from old used head for now and look into a new China replacement. Better bet in the long run to have a new one if you can not get the truck running.

    Tire o-ring replacement for leak.

    I found the only problem was the new distorted nuts and something with enough power to get close to correct torque. Did mine with plenty of oil on threads and one inch air impact and big air line plus big compressor. Last ones done with Milwaukee M18 one inch drive # 4 power setting. That is...

    Tire o-ring replacement for leak.

    I ordered some O rings and use the Accurite # that was stamped into my wheel. If you are having trouble getting the correct o ring to seal then something is wrong or you are doing it wrong. Bad edge on outer ring or O ring groove on wheel damage or not cleaned out right. O ring lube or tire soap...

    Tire o-ring replacement for leak.

    When dealing with any other O rings I use a non-petroleum base O ring lube. As said tires, O rings and valve stem rubber Murry's tire soap in solid form not turned into a liquid. Also makes it easer when you have to change the tire in the future. Jtm Products Inc F1.0003 $28.26 8Lb Pail Murphys...

    Tire o-ring replacement for leak.

    Murphy's tire soap on O ring and valve stem rubber is all I use. Never had a problem but I also use two non distorted nuts to pull the ring down even and tight. Then put on all distorted nuts tight and replace the two first nuts with distorted.

    I do not know what a bread loaf is in a deuce IP and I am just passing on about the plunger and plunger guide from another members post. He some how got the plunger guide and plunger off when he assembled them. I do not have my extra head anymore or I would take it apart and see how it could be...

    The TMs. Why you should use them.

    Yep I would never talk bad about the TM's but also reading threads the are about the truck you have even if you do not have the problem that is posted. You just might find you have the same problem later on down the road.:cool:

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    Garrett was using this thread to help another member. I asked Gimpy Chris something I was thinking about. With the fuel control sticking when the bridge screws are tighten down to much wonder if the fuel control unit assembly little pin on the end is jamming up on the plunger sleeve? I wish I...

    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    Ok a couple of things that button clip bothers me and I had to read your post again. You said you removed the plunger and plunger guide. The plunger and plunger guide can be put in 180* out of time. Hate to ask are your sure you got that back just the way it came apart? The drive gear with the...

    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    I have never checked the cranking pressure of a known running truck. With just the 9 psi it still should fire up and idle at 30 psi.

    Deuce short air pack vent line question

    Pic #2 believe was the master vent to the brass block and the main line was for fuel tank vent. It goes to the road draft tube. Work order was to remove the master vent to draft tube / tank vent line. That way no diesel fumes / or fuel could into the master cylinder. The other pics of air pack...

    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    You used grease but you also used the clip that was in good shape right? Lets check the delivery valve before you remove the head. That is the 12 point cap on the side if the head. Remove cap and do not loose the spring behind it then remove the valve and clean valve and seat. Post #16 Not...

    My deuce loses power

    Agree do a pressure check at the bleed screw that is between the secondary and final fuel filter. 30 psi min. at idle and 60 min. at high idle. Myself I do not need a pressure gage to tell me if my in tank pump is working just turn on the in tank and see if you have any pressure / flow at the...

    Generator bit me.

    Good thing is all the girls will say you light up there lives now. I just did both trailers to get them grounded just in case and sunk a ground rod for the generator if needed.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Civilian trailer use by the Air Force but now my storage trailer. Had the New doors put on but if they would have just painted the edges of the plywood I would not be working on it. Glad I decided to do it now before the plywood started to come apart from the water that gets under the weather...

    No fuel at injectors, after replacing filters. Advice needed.

    Check in tank fuel pump first at bleed screw between secondary and final fuel filter.
