I tried sanding it down (helped a little), removing the spring, soaking in gas, soaking in PB Blaster, throwing across the garage and even cursing at it. Nothing worked. Didn't try the ice water and drying process. A nitrile seal would be great and I did think of that, but none of the local...

Is that a Canadian Military kit? Mine looked the exact same. The jet openings and fuel metering parts had smaller openings than what was originally in my carb. I just cleaned up and reused the originals. I am going to get the carburetor rebuild guy's opinion on what is best. We will solve this...

The part number to the carburetor rebuild kit I got is 00-753-9050-2910. I called a carburetor rebuild shop in Tulsa and explained my problem. The man said to bring it in and we would find the right accelerator pump or fabricate one that will work. I like how he put that, so hopefully he can...

Here are the dimensions of the old one. 2.392 long .610 is the diameter The leather seal is very worn.

I looked at those threads yesterday and that manual online during the rebuild of the carb. Have you considered posting a copy of the military carburetor rebuild manual in the TM section? It would be awesome if you did. My problem is definitely the accelerator pump. It is too tight and sticks...

Carburetor Rebuild My dad came over for a visit and we rebuilt the carburetor on my truck. We had a lot of success and also have a few questions. After doing some research, I chose to use Klean Strip Naked Gun Spray Gun Cleaner to soak the carburetor in. I was very pleased with the results...

DHennon..yes, it was used at a fire department in eastern Kansas up until the mid 90's after leaving the military/forestry service. The name of the department escapes me at the moment. I am the 3rd owner since that time. The first owner had it for several years, but had to sell due to an injury...

Window Regulator Clips Does anyone know if these window regulator clips will work on the G749? They are about 1" diameter.

G749 Exhaust Pipe Flange Rings Exhaust Pipe Flange Rings. Used original on the left, new on the right Fel-Pro 60986 if anyone else needs some. Found mine at Bumper to Bumper.

G749 Exhaust Pipe Flange Rings It has been too cold to do much on the trucks today so I went parts hunting and found replacement exhaust pipe flange rings. The original ring off the truck is on the left, new on the right. Fel-Pro 60986 if anyone else needs some. Found mine at Bumper to Bumper.

Today I got around to cleaning up my other parts truck. Here are some pics. Also found a few things to bring home. Bed before and after Engine before and after. (I really hate rats!) Look at this gem. I have never seen one before and was excited to find this early feature. Got this window...

I can't give you an answer but maybe I can help narrow down what you are trying to figure out. I just rebuilt the front axle wheel cylinders on my M135. The truck was rebuilt at the Tooele arsenal in 1959. All four wheel cylinders had a bore diameter of 1 1/2". Haven't gotten around to the back...

What is the bore diameter of those cylinders?

We could probably use the spark plug adapter (lower piece in the middle) hooked up to a running truck and touch the other end to someone's tongue to wake them up a bit. I hope I don't get in trouble for saying this.........but check ebay. There have been several sets for sale on there lately...

Electrical Test Adapter Set I picked this up today. Hopefully it will come in handy. These are easier to find than I thought they would be.

It will look like this when you get it apart. Try to round up the seals and things you need before you take it apart if you can.

It was pretty bad and not really the most fun I have ever had, but it needed to be done. There is junk in the carburetor. One of these days I may try to start the blue truck. It was dark by the time we got the other truck out last night but I think the rat nest in it may be as bad if not worse...

We had to jerk on them a little bit but not too bad. The blue truck rolled great. The rear wheels on the green one would roll a little then lock for a little bit and then release and roll again. The front wheels were free. The ground was moist so the back wheels slid ok. We moved them 500 feet...

Okiem1008morrison and I got the last truck out of the woods this evening. I need to clean a huge rat nest out from under the hood still to see what is there. This was a big job getting both trucks out. Lots of good parts though.

That is neat!! Here is some info on the 5th US Army. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Army_North
