Tuning my attention to finding all the leaks and getting them fixed, I found two black hoses underneath the IP looked like they had slow leaks so they are next to be replaced. Also looks like something is leaking on the IP by the fuel shutoff (see pics)any ideas on what that could be?
Got a set of troop seats, bows, and an NOS tan cargo cover last weekend, got the troop seats painted and its looking pretty good, still needs some paint on the top railing.
Over the past couple weeks I got the whole front end painted, except the divers side door, just got done priming the bed hoping to get the first coat of tan on tomorrow. Also had to replace the fuel tank about a week ago because it rusted through and started leaking.
The system gets compressed air from a regulator mounted by the air horn, when you pull the dash valve it closes of the atmospheric vent and then opens anther valve to pressurize the system.
I'm a Junior now but got my first truck my M923a1 my freshman year, and my deuce last summer and have been daily driving the deuce ever since, Since I live on a farm the trucks get insured under the farm policy.
Good luck it can be done!
Got the new fuel fired heater going, and got the old coolant type heater removed, going to wait and get the coolant circulator pump mounted before mounting the fuel fired heater.

Got it going, turned out to be a bad ground to the fuel solenoid and a bad ground to the indicator light, also replace one O ring for the fuel strainer that was leaking, every thing is working grate now.

Other problem I am having is that the push to...

Drove the deuce out yesterday morning to get an arctic heater kit for the m939 series, Thankfully every thing came off easily, except the oil pan shroud which was smashed in so I was unable to get it off. Every thing I have worked with so far has worked properly, the personnel heater spooled up...
Once I got all of the cables on the harness patched back to gather for the personnel heater, I hooked up the ground and power cables to test out, but the push to test light would not light I checked the bulb and it seemed to be good,so I checked the socket (in pic) with a volt meter and the...

Newest project, arctic upgrade,Fuel burning personnel heater and swing fire coolant heater, still need to get a swing fire pulse jet to power it. Removed it all off an old m925 at Glens salvage yard in Salina. Only part I did not get was the oil pan shroud which was all smashed in.

Pics I took before I removed the parts off the junk truck
