    Multifuel Deuce Injector Pump Lube

    I run XDP power plus in mine. I would say the injectors are 50% quieter (less clatter) and idles smoother when using it compared to plain regular ultra low sulfur diesel. Always starts within 3 seconds of cranking in 30+ degree F weather. Cheap insruance to protect your injector system...

    Are C and D turbos still manufactured?

    Im pretty sure Sick Liter (6.0) is an electric variable geometry turbo (VGT). Hence the 6.0 whistle? ETA Correction: There were VGT and non-VGT versions.

    oil leaking from front of cylinder head

    Thanks. I have been meaning to start a thread on this last summer. Mine just started leaking last year. Runs fine, just the passenger side block is oily as well as the axle now. Dipstick reads the same, but coolant slowly disappears. Waiting to hear results of retorqueing head bolts/nuts.

    1947 Ward Le France M1 Heavy Wrecker

    I figured I would get a warning for linking the truck sale. So if anyone wants the link, send me a PM or if mods ok-it, I will post it. Really? It is amazing how well its survived, she needs a proper restoration and to retire in a covered barn.

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    I have a professional style huge airless sprayer from Harbor Freight. Used it to paint my fence and seal the kids playset. I love it, but clean-up is not fun. Will it work ok for painting my M35 or should I just buy a cheap handheld electric unit?
