    I do not know there is always some body that would kick off the cab and bed and put a limousine body on it.

    MEP831A won’t turn off only when disconnecting battery

    Kloppk has helped me with my problems as I know nothing about mine. Maybe I am wrong but your last pictures you have the black throttle knob in the off position. I believe that should be in the run / start position and with motor no load running then you measure the gap?

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2021 - July VOTE HERE!

    Yep I have it on good authority that NASA did place an outward facing billboard above Earth and it said. " Caution anyone or thing visiting please wear your waders because this place is full of crap".

    M1083A1 - non runner 50 miles from St Augustine

    Thanks for the thought Wes and I will catch up with you when your back is turned. WassawBound I am running antique tags and I would not want to risk any problems on the road.

    Fuel not getting past Hydraulic Head

    Yes leave the center cap alone for now. Post #2 is the thingy ( delivery valve ) we can check for a no start without removing the Head. Please do not loose the spring. Might start there first then you might have to get into removing the Head and check timing button. deuce wont start. | SteelSoldiers

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2021 - July VOTE HERE!

    Why would someone yell election fraud if your vote was cast when the poll was open. Now if someone was to reopen a poll and cast a vote and it changed a tie well yea. Just because I figured out who opened a closed poll and changed the tie last time does not make me the bad guy. Still could have...

    Maybe we should reopen this poll and see if one of the 22 other truck voters wants to change there vote to tie it up again? Since we can change the rules when ever. Faceoff

    M101a2 wheel bearings question

    Wonder since most roads are crowned and driving in the right lane the passenger side might get a little hotter. That and if you loaded the passenger side of the trailer heaver plus crown might heat up that side?

    Official 2021 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally swap meet thread

    If I make it have a couple of Hardigg cases and aluminum med boxes. Have a couple of Septer water and fuel cans. Some even with metal holder base and new nylon straps. Still have the Med. collard tow bar with 1x1 feet 1 3/4 feet and double chain axle clamps.

    She won't start

    Bottom petcocks are for water draining. The system air bleed screw is the one between the secondary and final fuel filter up on the block by firewall. Yes we do it after filter change.

    Correct nut torque for combat wheel retaining ring.

    Yep not original but glad Clay put them on it as it was so nice when I had to change the tube. I am not a purest. I checked out that forum with a search but thanks but wheel is back together. I check the other wheel nuts and they all were just over 100 foot pounds so I went with 115 and...

    NHC250 Cummins fuel system

    Well years ago I posted with pics that filter removed. Yea it did not have metal and not clogged enough to cause a running problem but it did have fibrous material I figured came from the fuel filter. Magnet was clean. If something could get by the primary filter then yes the PT filter should...

    Is pron better than porn hub? I might be able to make it so I will start looking to see what goodies are left and post the on the buy / sell thread.

    Another stupid idea, ignore this thread.

    My thought is just to keep any moisture / crap out of the air pack that can cause premature failure. Now when I replaced the air dryer on the 1088 I did a test after driving it. I took a paper towel and taped it to a piece of cardboard. Held it up to wet tank and all the other tanks and opened...

    Another stupid idea, ignore this thread.

    Myself always thought an air dryer would be a nice thing to add to the Deuce. If not a whole dryer then small water trap / filter on the line that feeds the air pack.

    Correct nut torque for combat wheel retaining ring.

    Searched and looked through the TM 9-808 but no luck. Got the wheel with new tube and flap and ring nuts just snugged down for now but want correct torque number for the 5/8 stud / nut. Tanks

    What did you do to your M37 today?

    OK problem was new flap was not installed. You can see where the flap was worn out and allowed the tube to come through the flap creating a weak spot. Got the combat wheel back together with new flap and tube and locking ring nuts just tighten down some. Does any one know the correct torque for...
