This document shows 87mph as the highway speed rating for Goodyear Wrangler MT tires. It's a little hard to read but start on page 3/6 and continue horizontally to page 4/6 on the top row of the chart. Max pressure 50psi.
Chains on these trailers always seem a little short for my F250 and tires are always low on air pressure. I take an air tank and now have a portable air compressor.
Stick with the screw hose clamps: they are WAY better than the OEM clamp. My 802 had a weeping leak so I pulled the manifold and installed new hose with the OEM type clamps. Still had a small leak. Drove me nuts with the fan blowing stuff all around. I finally changed out the OEM clamp to...
It was SOOOOooooo crystal clear last night looking though my wine bottle.
Multiple NSNs is a problem. Multiple (60!!!) part numbers is a bigger problem.
Definitely do not want to create the 'perfect' sheet containing ALL descriptive numbers. Absolutely must have some limits.
You may...
TMs will have NSNs. This is the base line. Then I jump to PartTarget to find Manufacturer's part numbers. I'm thinking:
NSN..........................Part Description.........................Various Manufacturer's Part numbers
Each Generator gets a list of maintenance consumables. Unless...
Not sure about this: I like the system as set up by military. If your fuel tank gauge is properly functioning - and you observe the control gauges at startup - it will act as a reminder to refill the onboard tank. If fuel gauge is broken....like mine was.....here's a cheap replacement...
Is your main fuel pump square or a cylinder? Cylinder type are considered better pumps. Is S1 a plastic blue switch or metal? Might be as simple as exercising the S1 with some contact cleaner. Could be a loose wire inside control cabinet, too.
24 volt system. Check TM to confirm battery wiring is correct. Dead Crank functioning implies proper battery connection. Did you fill tank with Aux fuel pump - it is 24 volts? You should hear the main fuel pump come on when you put Master Switch in Prime/Run position: any sound? Is your...
These articles all support Chainbreaker 's and Ray70's analyses: bad/stuck injector (s?).

I keep thinking fuel and air. How long did it run at 12Kw? If it ran an hour then I suspect air flow is good and your air intake hose is not crimped. Bad fuel pump? Sustained run at 12Kw suggests good air AND fuel flow. Crappy fuel?
Your 220353 number shows up at PartTarget as a "Valve, Relay, Air Pressure ". https://www.parttarget.com/2530-00-353-0408_2530003530408_220353.html/-711C66F0-219C-4BAB-84EC-D8697E61846D
IF correct, the PartTarget site shows quite a few manufacturers.
I was looking for a replacement jack for these trailers. Daybreak pointed me to Bull Dog Jacks: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/m1101-m1102-ltt-tqg-trailer-jack.154286/
Their round jacks are close, but...
Have you found the TM section? Several items for 804A here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/forums/generator-and-electrical-tms.121/
Main TMs here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/all-the-tms-you-need-to-work-on-the-mep-804a.148936/
From TM 9-2330-392-14&P: Brake fluid is NSN 9150-01-102-9455 - I believe you are correct.....DOT 5. Interesting that my M1101 reservoir cover has DOT 3/4 on it. My 2011 M116A3 calls for DOT 5...
