Pizza and beer for 3 was probably cheaper than the forklift rental! Good job, she looks like a much improved truck! Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

1) Yes, it does. Bypassing the FDC has the same effect as "turning the fuel up". Why? At startup, FDC bypassed, you begin with a fixed quantity for fuel delivery and increase from there as you press the throttle, basically what the FDC would do if you were running gasoline (a lower viscosity...

"Flasher unit is new" does not equal "flasher unit is functional". Especially the newer ones are POS, in my humble opinion, and the ones making it onto the civilian market do not appear to be of outstanding quality. I wasted 3 or 4 times the 50 bucks one cost, before I did this...

I put a brand new "D" on my LDS and it easily boosts to 15psi if I don't pay attention. It still "whistles" but in the quiet and subdued manner of any modern turbo. I have a muffler and you can still hear it spool up. I figured, the higher hp LDS needs a capable turbo. The original Schwitzer...

How did you hook up the camper to the military 3.5 inch 5th wheel? I always thought you had to have a civy 5th wheel hitch. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

That is one neat and clean install! Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

Also, some manufacturers of gauges (Westach is the one I worked with) will set the dial faces up to your needs, including custom colour ranges for green-yellow-red warnings. If you really want a matching set and displays that show what you need them to show it is worth talking to the...

Jeepsinker, out of curiosity, what is your background? Mechanic? Welding? I admire the work you do (and blatantly envy you for your work space).

https://www.eriksmilitarysurplus.com/hobuswkitfor.html This is just one example; many vendors have this part.

By all means, get the new version button. I remember doing what you did - sitting in the cab with the assorted pieces, going WTF?? I did get it together, eventually, but it never fit totally right. New button, problem solved. If you want to play...

:roll: I really did not WANT to be right! It does not appear to be a severe bend. As long as the extension runs in and out without binding you will likely be just fine. Maybe it can be straightened. **thinking of boom on wooden blocks and a heavy loader gently pushing down in the middle**

Is it an optical illusion or is the boom bent? Congrats on getting her running!

The flasher units are known to go bad. Cheapest bidder. Still $$ to replace each time. There is a thread on how to build your own with a 24V flasher relay. Did that, never looked back.

If it hits with some starting fluid, you know it has air and compression. If it does not stay running, it does not get fuel. If the in-tank fuel pump is actually pumping and producing pressure (verify!) there should be fuel delivered to the high-pressure fuel pump at the injection pump. The IP...

Lola got a thorough after-flood-service pressure wash. Gone is the sand off the cargo deck and even the inside of the cabin is clean again! Engine block got a wash, too. There is some weeping from the head gasket, never mind that it is brand new heads and gasket, torqued and re-torqued. Oh well...

Yes, the symptoms you describe point to the airpack (hydrovac) needing to be rebuilt.
