    Injector pump shut-off cover removal

    The end of my injector pump shut off rod is broken off where the shut off cable attaches. I need to take off the cover and see what I have to do to repair/replace the rod. I check the manual (TM 9-2910-226-34 Injector Pump Manual) and on page 3-1 it indicates that I just remove the two...

    Have you named you truck?

    All true. They are also unofficially known as "The Christmas Bombings." These raids were Nixon and Kissenger's way of getting the North Vietnamese to the bargaining table to negotiate the end the American involvement in the Vietnam War. From wackiwickopedia: Operation Linebacker II was a...

    Have you named you truck?

    My wife and I call my Deuce "The Mother Duck". She tops out at 58 to 60 MPH ... and goes a LOT slower up hills here in NoGa. As she goes along ... all the other cars line up and waddle along right behind us ... just like little baby ducks. The roads around here are kinda tight ... and don't...

    Best way for me to buy a deuce?

    Ask a simple question ... ... get six pages of LIFE advice. And talk about SOME posts being nasty? You would have thought he asked how to change the spark plugs. Over the top? Maybe just a little. oddshot

    Soft Top Field Expedient Emergency Repair???

    Yep ... I'm a bit "unusual"! :grin: I can usually find something to laugh about ... but have a VERY low tolerance for people of the opposite mindset. The name is actually a lyric from a VERY old (and some what "odd") Tom Paxton song from back during the Vietnam War. I guess the odd thing...

    Best way for me to buy a deuce?

    Like I said ... try looking M35's up on for sale on Craig's List. Its JUST like girls ... don't fall in love and marry the first one you see. Look over a LOT of them ... maybe drive a couple. Take your time. Just don't take your wallet outta your pocket. oddshot

    Soft Top Field Expedient Emergency Repair???

    Best way for me to buy a deuce?

    I didn't suggest BUYING off of Craig's list ... I suggested LOOKING at vehicles listed there ... I feel it is a good way to actually SEE and TOUCH vehicles ... and get a feel for the market ... you know ... whats out there. LOOKING don't cost nothing. Maybe he could even get a ride. Just...

    Best way for me to buy a deuce?

    Just for the practice ... You might want to look on Craig's List in your area. That would let you find vehicles LOCALLY that you could go LOOK AT ... and maybe spend a little time with. You don't HAVE to buy one. I've seen a number of them on Craig's List down here in Georgia ... some are...

    Soft Top Field Expedient Emergency Repair???

    I'm sure the military would probably replace the top. But ... since the shell is good ... I HATE to waste it. How about something like this: Dynamat 10425 Dynamat Xtreme Insulation or an automotive under-hood insulation blanket. You could find them at anyplace like Jegs or Summit. When the...

    That might not be a bad idea. I'm gonna give that some lookin' into. If memory serves correctly ... I think I remember seeing a shop up in Ellijay that might be able to do it. There ain't much around in my piece of NoGa ... I'm kinda out in the woods. oddshot

    J pipe prices ... parts prices in general

    Now that IS interesting ... When I read your post ... I raced on over there to check the price ... and the ad was there. But ... like you said ... I just checked ... and the listing is gone. I guess they sold out just as I posted this thread. The shrink wrap is probably the reason you...
