While it is possible that the issue is caused by adjustments made during the HH swap, it is also possible that the new hydraulic head now provides full fuel flow - as opposed to the defective old one. This can cause restrictions in the fuel lines to become more prominent. Filters are a good...
Look, it depends where you are at in your life. Here is another video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgX1xYNfZL0
You "can" take the outer half off with the rim mounted to the truck, replace the O-ring, replace the outer half and reseat the bead. Imagine the wheel in the video remaining...

Your airtex is listed at flowing 35 gal/h (free flow) and capable of 14 psi.
The recommended pump (see this thread) from RockAuto is the only 24V diesel pump for heavy diesel...
A resistor converts electrical energy into heat. That is how they work. The electricity not convereted into heat ("the rest") gets to run the fan motor and it is enough to turn it at low speed. For high speed, the fan motor requires all the electrical energy, so the resistor is not being used.
I...
Queen Lola is tucked away in winter quarters, between an Aistream trailer and a PrincessCraft for company. Battery disconnect switch, so batteries will be fine in Spring. I miss her already!
And, as luck will have it, it is snowing heavily tonight for the first time. Winter is here!
You are the eternal optimist! Doing the front seals is rewarding. I have very good experience with the slightly oversized boots from rockwelloffroad.com as well as their modified inner front axle seals with the "sock tube" type of seal that seals better than the lip seal. Not affiliated, no...
FWIW, my Deuce spent its life in the salt-free southern US and I am not going to introduce it to stone salt and calcium chloride liquid that are used around here for snow and ice removal. That sh*t eats your car alive. Mine goes into heated storage next week.....costs money, yes, but so does...
If I understand correctly, you would cut the bus frame behind the transmission mount, remove the corresponding length of Deuce frame at the front end and mate this bus front frame piece to the deuce rear frame piece. You could leave the rear frame two feet longer to give you room for a...
The fuel gauge is a simple set up. I would start by checking and improving the ground. The gauge grounds via the gauge bracket which in turn grounds via the four panel screws. The power feed into the gauge should be firmly attached and not have any damaged insulation where it rubs against the...
I know a yard near me that has two Canadian built M35 with the Detroit Diesel "Fuel Pincher" and the Allison 643. The Detroits do not run but I do not think the trannys were touched. This could be a good starting point...all the mounts and connections are made to fit the Deuce chassis. As you...
It is also a good time to put a bit of air tool oil into the air pack, either through the little plug on the back if it can be motivated to come out, or loosen the J pipe and put it in there.
There are also Anco blade connectors that are a tad too narrow for the clip. They twist inside the clip and break it. Then the stupid wiper blade sits on the window sideways or falls right out. Are you sure you're using the right ones?

Aren't you the optimist!
Seriously, I think you are very diligent in your planning and the follow-up to your work.
After I re-ringed mine and honed the liners, it initially ran with no blowby but developed minor blowby soon thereafter. Annoying, yes, but I chalk it down to the design more...
Looks good. Late model one-colour tarp as well. Clean truck.
As for the tires, if they are the 14.5 tires that were on the truck originally and have sat flat for any length of time, please read about the safety concerns around M35A3 tires. Several blow-outs have occurred with them, especially...
