Heh.

Removed the fuel line, rather, disconnected it, because I couldn't BUDGE some of those clips, even with a 1/2 breaker bar.. Removed the fuel filter.. OMG.. glad I did... Rusty, SLUDGE in the bottom, which is why it wasn't draining.. and .. yuck.. already have the fuel filter housings, and...

You probably toasted the THERMAL flasher.. It heats up, bends a contact, which breaks the connection, cools down, touches, bends back, etc... running 24V through it probably toasted it. The newer electronic versions are like 5$...

Didn't want to start a new thread when this was so close in topic, albeit older.. Thinking of doing the same thing on my M934... Why not just run a line at the bottom edge of the tank to the other tank at the bottom edge of the tank? The fuel level will self adjust, no worries about pumps, or...

Did you get the refund for the commercial plates? What's your ETA to Seattle?

Transfer case max speed is 55... You'll notice it takes am act of god to get from 55 to 60 vs 50 to 55... Dont over speed the transfer case. Call me when you get in town... I got a place you can ****, shower, and shave.. Or we can grab a beer or something and compare notes. Did you get...

He already got beat to it :-p

Love it. I was planning on using folding boat steps like you did, how were those secured? Did you weld a back panel on the back then cut a hole and mount a door or ???

You have jacknuts that do pretty much the same thing, without specialty hardware..

Buy some Group 31s from Costco, or from Interstate... They're both made by Johnson Controls and are excellent batteries.

Does OP realize that the ONLY thing that gets 24V is the starter and glow plugs, and everything else gets 12v? I'm thinking he put the 12V feed on the + of the second battery and is now pushing 24V through his 12V system.

Just a heads up! I made this mistake. Bought the Gates hose and about 10 miles later blew it out. I didn't notice interference when I installed it, but it flexed in use and... *pop* My fix. I cut about 3" off the radiator end on the hose, then secured it to the radiator.. This required...

Rough numbers so far.... Pretty telling... Avg a little over 5 MPG for the M934.. I'm betting having a flatbed instead of the cross dimension of a 2 story brick would help fuel consumption.

I have pics to post but haven't touched my laptop in weeks before this post.. I need to sort, edit, then post pics.

Bring 'Soldier B'... heh. a cushion or 5 for the seat needs to go on the list.. I would also get a cheap 5 gallon air tank, and fill it before your trip. If your truck is not running, you have no air. If you have a leak, you have no air, etc. Shoot me your number via PM and I'll give you a...

Definitely... And thanks again for the help.. It was a learning experience for sure, and as such, plans come out of it to make sure future occurrences are eliminated or reduced. Not much went wrong, but spare parts should be carried.. I brought belts, and nothing air related... That...

My concern is the lines blowing out... Rather.. One line blowing out twice... If one will, others will. The lines were sitting for at least 7 years and plastic gets brittle over time...

I'm not much for rules and regulations. Safety is more important to me than the 'right' way. If it's safe, do it. No warrant, no inspection. Wanna crawl under the truck? Don't complain if you get run over.. All I know is I had 3 air related failures... And I want eliminate future...

So the supply to the filter assembly (not the tank) 1/2 inch compression? But if I'm changing it out... Might as well replace the supply from tank as well... Line is cheap. I'll get a comprehensive parts list together and post it to help others in the future, as soon as I get this done.

I've gone over what seems like 500 threads on fuel filter spin on mods... A bunch of people selling stuff... But no real data. M934, nhc250... I need to know the thread size of the supply (input) line into the filter housing as well as the input to the IP. Any help would be appreciated...
