Nice story and pics. Nice to hear that folks are still coming out ok on some of these. Guys talk about the good ones being picked over etc. etc. but looks like there was at least one more out there.
Speaking of unusual deuces, Question for you central Texas members. While stationed at Medina annex to Lackland AFB, we had a brush fire on the range (tracer shot into drought grass in the summer). We had fire crews come in from all over and one of them was a deuce brush truck that said either...
Great! thanks for the assit. Is the unit listed the first unit the truck was assigned or the last? Also, what does the following signify ? Manufacturer: 65909 Nov 1981

I'm having similar problems. I just bought a 77 multi and drove it home. Ran like a top for 40 miles or so. I suspected fuel issues so drained and cleaned the tank. Replaced all filters and bleed the filters and injectors. Started up pretty quick with the 6th injector open still...
Glad to hear I'm not the only one. About 5 hours ago I snapped the bleeder off. Wasn't even close to tight. I'm a long way from everything so I think a bolt or pipe plug is in order. Anyone know the thread size?
My (new to me) truck quit on me. The fuel looked like bad chocolate milk. I...

Thought I'd chime in on topic as my first post. This is my new deuce as purchased from our local fire dept. Not sure if the color is going to stay but it will do for now.
