Changed the head gasket, ran into two stripped head bolts, bummer, still have white oil, but my guess is, I'll have to run several flushes to get all that crap out of the engine. One strange issues is the filler neck vent tube is actually sucking up a good amount of the milky oil from the filler...
Were they like that when you got the truck? If so, mostly cause by - drivers running with front wheel locked on dry pavement! If it happened after you had the truck, I'm sure you didn't do that, so it would most likely be the alignment.
Holding off on pulling engine, gonna try a couple of tests first! We just have that Milky oil everywhere, oil, intake..... Might just have been some loose head bolts, gonna flush the engine and see what we get first!
Agreed KansasBobcat In my days in the Army (1972-2013) we always called them jeeps, I never heard MUTT until I started following forums a couple of years ago! LOL
Now the bad news, as y'all can see above we took her out for her first run, bad news we now found out the block is cracked! :cry...
27th and 28th August! This year our members voted to move our show into August!
A flyer will be completed shortly! Same location! Overnight primative camping allowed! Huge field setting, with huge public parking area!
More to follow!
Sorry, but thanks, it is rebuilt, it's had panels replaced from previous owners, and there is rust holes, just can't be seen here. We;ll just make sure they don't get any worst!
At the 8th month mark now and yes, I've had a few scratches, but with extra paint form the gallon, it's a fast easy fix. So far this MASSTERS paint scheme is still holding up!
The Deuce was our second MV, our first was a museum aircraft 10 years ago and that one is still holding up well as well...
Starting our next MV project! I did have some trouble this time at HD with the code, for some reason they had trouble with the 24087?
But we worked it out!
