    engine air filter

    If I understand correctly most of the parts stores air filters don't meet the cfm requirements of the original filter. I bought an original one from Saturn.

    4 Color MERDC Pattern Needed

    It seems that only the 1976 edition of TB 43-0209 covers the M35A2 MERDC pattern, the other manual does not, it has other variants of the deuce but skips the cargo truck for some reason as well as the M151 jeep. Still looking-thanks.

    4 Color MERDC Pattern Needed

    I tried downloading TB 43-0209 here but it stalls out and I don't even know if its the 1976 version. If you have a copy of this pattern from the manual I would greatly appreciate it.

    Fuel heated heater controls

    Sampled the two drain plugs and nothing which is good, I am sure what little I got from the prefilter plug was it. I did my basic training and 12B mos at Ft. Leonard Wood in 85. I will box the heater up and get it out next week, the only part I don't have is the fuel pump that was mounted in...

    Composite Light Lense Fit/Availability

    I recently bought 2 sets(front/rear)of composite light lenses from Frank's for my deuce as the ones I have now are badly faded. The lights are original Prestolite units. When the lenses arrived I noticed the screws were pretty flimsy, not like the origianals which appear to be stainless or...

    Winch lube

    I believe the left side looking at the winch from the front uses 16oz and the right side uses 20oz.

    winch drum brake

    I believe the brake band on the pto side only works when the clutch is in, when the clutch is out the drum is disconnected from the drive side of the winch allowing it to free spool. In order to "control" the payout of the cable you would have to reverse it out under power or have someone put...

    Stencils, solar charger & gas tank mounts

    3M makes a spray adhesive that works great, just spray it on the stencil and it will prevent the overspray. You can get it at hobby/craft stores. I found paint mask stencils do a much better job but they are a one shot deal.

    Aervoe Paint Warning

    The advertiser is sending a replacement can. I called Aervo because it was them that mislabeled the can, I was hoping they would go good for it to save the dealer from shipping costs. I will continue to use the paint but I am very disappointed with the customer service. My main reason for...

    Aervoe Paint Warning

    I ordered a can of Aervoe 997B(24084) semi gloss olive drab from one of the MVM advertisers. When it arrived the label on the can is correct, however the cap and inside under the cap on the can lists WWII 987A. So I tried some and sure enough it was WWII 987A. I called Aervoe customer service...

    New Deuce Win...

    Make sure your panel light switch is on bright and like the previous poster said clean the dash light holders and clean the outside portion of the gauges(behind the panel)that the light shines into, they are plenty bright, also make sure both bulbs are working.
