I spent a whole lot of time on a whaleboat while I was in. They used to drop us over the side and I'd start the Perkins up about three feet before we hit the water. Nice boats. What kind of trailer did you use to pull it?

Wow! That looks like fun. Your Deuce seemed to handle the humps really well. What gears were you using as you cruised around?

Huh! Never considered a spoiler. Maybe I should mount it facing backwards in the bed for the test. I just got finished installing a 12v power supply for my navi and a possible CB. I think I may actually be able to hear both of them with my engine off. Has anyone mounted blue lights behind their...

Laughed my ass off when I read your reply.

How fast will my Deuce go in reverse if I put my transfer case in neutral and take my foot off the brake on a hill? Does it matter if the engine is on or off? I run 11R-20s.

I bought the "Whistler 3LJ-319" kit from J&H myself. When I discovered someone had taken a grinder to my exhaust turbine blades, I decided to replace it with a new turbo. I sold my kit to another member. Good luck with your rebuild. Wscougarx's post is awesome.

My IP is a bit wet too. Do all multifuels have booster pumps? I've never heard them mentioned before. Diesel fuel leaks can be very hard to cure. Replacing your injectors is never a bad thing. I used to rebuild Detroit Diesel unit injectors in the Navy. We pop tested them to 600 psi after hand...

Or the solenoid is stuck in the "on" position. Glad to hear you have a replacement starter handy. It's much easier to change the starter if you remove the air cleaner and exhaust flex pipe from the turbo and J-pipe. I passed a cable with eyes trough the space between the solenoid and the starter...

A gear reduction starter? Who sells them? Are they specifically made for the LDT-465? The whole IP thing sounds like it could get pricey. What makes you think you have to repair/replace it? Is your engine running badly or is it leaking a lot of fuel? Dittos on the de-bugging and pampering. I've...

I guess you'd call it OEM digger. It's a real beauty. You can just see the quality in it's manufacture. Feel it too. It weighs about 70 pounds. Kind of hard on my 60 year old back. It fired Brutus right up. My ring gear looked pretty good when you consider the damage to the starter gear teeth. I...

Thanks Digger! The first starter I got was the wrong one. I returned it. The second was on the money. The worst part was that the apartment complex I live at wanted to seal coat the parking lot. They were having fits. Wanted to push it up a hill. I told them that if this truck rolls back on them...

Okay. The new starter is in and works fine. I was relieved to find that my brand new 6TL batteries were still good. I ran a new wire outside the harness from the switch to the top left terminal on the mag starter. Now, after my first test run I find that my right rear axle seal must be leaking...

Digger is right. I just replaced my starter due to this problem. In my case, I think the two wires from the starter switch shorted together. Everything else tested out fine. I ran a new wire from the start switch directly to the top left terminal on the mag starter. I was happy to find that my...

Thanks Mad Man! Thanks Jeep! I installed new because my original's exhaust turbine blades were toast. You should hear this thing whistle! You either love the sound or you hate it. I love it. The D turbo exhaust housing is wider as I said but is a direct fit. No matter which multifuel/turbo you...

Probably not Jeep. I'm shooting for Rauch's Creek in October. It's only about two hours away and you can do some four wheeling there. There are a few others in N.J. like Turbomustang that will probably be there. We would convoy out together. There's nothing I like better than meeting in person...

Mr. corpse.....I agree 100% with M-35tom and Jeepsinker about replacing your engine with a takeout unit. The damaged engine in your truck could very well have a bad camshaft and many other problems as well. I bet a lot of small metal fragments got pumped through your re-assembled engine when you...

I was only two miles from home when it happened. Pulled the ground terminal off shortly after the wheels stopped rolling. The connections were tight in my case. I was just on a custom battery cable website that advises to snug them down and then one quarter of a turn more for battery terminals...

Ok on the dielectric stuff. The only thing I've done recently is install new batteries and fan belts. Hard to see how that would cause starter/battery problems. I put the cables on properly and read 28.3 volts across the terminals while charging which is good. I think it's just a coincidence...

This is a Whistler Hi. Good luck with the process. Here is a picture of my new Whistler turbo. The silver section is the exhaust turbine. The exhaust turbine on the "D" non-Whistler turbo is thicker and and doesn't have as much of scroll look to it. Sorry I couldn't make it smaller. I'm having...

Did you plastigauge the main bearings during the rebuild to make sure you had the proper clearances when torqued? Did you apply Lubriplate break in grease on the bearings during the install? Also, you want to make sure that any lubrication holes in the bearings line up with the holes in the...
