    ‘72 M35A2 dripping Oil front end, bottom of Engine

    https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/major-engine-oil-leak.73622/ He never really diagnosed it but changed the front oil seal. I suggest you try and see where it is coming from. That gives you a better idea of what needs to be done.

    ‘72 M35A2 dripping Oil front end, bottom of Engine

    The oil pan is attached with 30 cap screws and lock washers. Check that they are tight. The top of your engine around the cylinder heads appears dry and clean on the pictures. Any oil therefore comes from further down. I would spray everything that appears oily with brake cleaner and wash it...

    M35A2 runaway problem

    Do yourself a favour and make the temporary fix your permanent fix. Remove the complete flame heater setup and plug the connections. Unless you regularly fire her up in well below freezing you don't need it and if you do need regular cold start help, spring for a KAT 24V ether dispenser that...

    Locker in the rear axle only

    One locker will already eliminate the biggest weakness of the open diff 6x6 drive train - no propulsion power when slipping on all three wheels on one side. So, that one locker already makes a difference in a situation where you are sideways in a soft spot or on ice on one side. I don't know...

    M35A2 runaway problem

    "Runaway" is not the same as "wide open throttle" (WOT). In the former, the engine typically feeds on fuel OTHER than the fuel supplied by the injection pump, such as engine oil leaking past turbo seals etc. Because of the alternate supply of "fuel", the engine rpms are no longer governed or...

    IH DT466 swap

    Loosen the compressor belt and run it... bad compressor can simulate engine blowby. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    IH DT466 swap

    15-40 Rotella also. Maybe it is worth running John Deere break in oil for 500 miles or so to. I'd defer to some of the diesel mechanics here...rustystud...whaddayasay? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    IH DT466 swap

    No negative opinion of the DT466 here. I think I would want to know for sure that the multi has a real problem before embarking on transplant surgery. For starters, I would do the preventative maintenance it needs, load it up (5 tons of sand or gravel or whatever) and run it long and "hard"...

    No/little fuel to secondary and final filter

    How did you get the air out? Just let the in tank pump run for a minute or five to push fuel all the way? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Loss of Brakes (Air Pressure) Procedure

    Perhaps a good start would be to state that the brakes on your truck are hydraulic in function, with air to assist with the pedal effort. Losing air assist does not mean you are losing the brakes. You will be limited in how hard you will be able to apply the brakes without air assist. 98G said...
