    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    Fuel Pump Rebuild Project Part 3 (Fuel Pressure Gauge) Since I am in the fuel system, I decided to add a fuel pressure gauge to the system. This is something I have been wanting to do for sometime. A tachometer is still on the project list as well. I saw a Gama Goat with a fuel pressure on...

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    Fuel Pump Rebuild Project Part 1 (Disassemble) Well, as you know I've been having issues with the truck. We have narrowed it down to the fuel system (hopefully). She is acting like she's not getting enough fuel all of a sudden. On the last start up, she idled like a charm. It wasn't until I hit...

    Bus Bar (secondary) I attempted to get to the bus bar under the radiator to no avail. I'm still wondering why they put it in such an inaccessible area. So rather than mess things up, I placed a request in the classified ad and m38inmaine came through for me! Thanks Mark!! Unfortunately, I...

    Gama Goat Truss Kit and BII Wrench Well, shoot!! I've been riding the fence on this Rare piece of kit. I justified not buying the Truss kit with the understanding I could just put a spare tire in the carrier. Then I read M38inMaine's outstanding Goat thread and saw he got the remaining parts...

    Just had a memory flashback about my fuel issue. I remember when I first got her, there was fuel on the inside of the tub. Note I've gotten to know this Goat and the 353. The fuel was dripping from what I now know is the fuel pump. Thanks Tom, after reading your response again today, I...

    Fuel Pressure Gage Options??? Before I get going on breaking down the fuel system, I've been wanting to install a mechanical fuel pressure gauge off the secondary fuel filter canister. With this current issue that's going on, this project is being moved forward. I've been wanting to be able to...

    Added gasoline to diesel tank - how much is bad?

    I'd throw some Walmart outboard 2 cycle oil in there as well to keep things lubed up.

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    Hey Tom, after thinking about it all night, everything seems to point to fuel issues. One my last trip out (loss of power trip), whenever I accelerated I heard a different sound that I've never heard before. At the top of the acceleration, I could hear the engine pulsing like she was up against...

    WSUCougar's M925A1 Acquisition and Build Thread

    Holy smokes, has it been over a year since I touched this thread already? Darn Goat is taking all my time away from my favorite truck. I need to make a project up for this truck so I can keep the thread alive.

    Well that didn't work. She immediately idled rough and quit. As things would have it, batteries went dead from not charging all this time. Back to the drawing boards. I still need to remove the valve cover anyways. I've been wanting to check the valves. Will keep this thread posted.

    Intermittent Rough Idle issue The last time I took the Goat out, my wife and I went to the grocery store. Along the way, I noticed the Goat wasn't sounding or running right. Felt like a loss of power and the engine sounded like she was up against the governor. Hmm, I thought it may have been a...

    Where is the coolant going? A couple days ago, I decided to check all the fluids. I wasn't planning on taking her out nor did I really have any concerns. Just thought it would be a good thing to do. Everything looked good until I got the the coolant. I had to grab the flashlight to see where...

    Transfer case oiling

    I've thought about adding an inspection hole in the doghouse to monitor it. I added Lucas Oil Stabilizer and she keeps her prime after sitting.
