    Noticed a problem with non NOS fuel filters we all use (wix,Napa,etc)

    Just pop that center metal piece out of the filter. Then it will be metal to cork and not metal to metal. And the cork will swell when its in the fuel. Or depending on filter you can flip the metal parts of the housing over to get a better seal this depends on filter height thought.

    M35A2 project

    The tarps were easier to hang up than plastic to keep the over spray down. I put screw hooks in the rafters and hung them up , they were just the right length. When I'm done I can take them down and fold them up for next time. I was thinking the silver would help make it brighter in the shop too.

    Oil & lubrication

    "technology moves exponentially" So true , but your engine is still 60 years old. These "new" oil are made for the "new" engines. They are thinner because the tolerance's are tighter on the new engines. My thinking is a good oil is all you need not the latest "super oil".

    Tire age and cracks - Still safe or replace?

    I work for a school and we have about 30 buses and I see Michelins cracking way more than other brans. We have been buying new Yokohama for drives and Continental for steers. This is a lot to do with state contract pricing but also that they hold up and wear the best. We try to get them...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I just replaced a set of non zipper boots that I put on 15 years ago. They showed some dry rot but not bad and one had a small hole. One side was full of gear oil. But the truck has not been used in like the last 10 years , just sitting in the tall grass.

    jumping out of fifth gear

    around here you cant find any kind of primers . As for me I got out of a toxic relationship and now I have time for shop therapy. Money is still short but I'm slowly catching up , that's why work is going slow.

    Fire Extinguisher

    Purple K is for fuel fires and would or could be in a CUCV. Now a "class K" fire extinguisher is more for use in a kitchen.
