    Installed remote brake reservoir today

    That vent runs to other components- I don't think you want to fill them up with silicon fluid. A remote reservoir is vented already- so you won't need to vent the MC at the MC. The MC does need to be 'vented'. But only to prevent a vacuum from forming. If you are using the same parts, it will...

    M146 RV Conversion

    Thanks! I wanted to keep it and do what your doing, but I didn't have a tractor, and I was trying to save my land at the time so I sold it. And the M35. M215 has the m146 trailer now, for his GMC tractor. I know he's been working on it. It was complete, had 3 ladders even. Did have some broken...

    Nevermind, I just looked good at the pics and saw that you are filling it from the top. aua Did you pull that plastic line out of the water tank?

    Wreckerman's Wood Fired Waste Oil Heater and Possum Parcher

    I would run a line from the top of the tank, down the side, and put a valve. Open when filling. That would be your vent. It might not have filled over half way because the pump can only deal with so much head pressure- if your filling from the bottom the pressure the pump has to overcome builds...

    SC Antique Truck Law

    The state would make WAY more money by not allowing us to get antique tags, and all of us having to get weighted tags. By letting antique trucks have a special registration and tag, the state LOSES money. Lots of DOT regs exclude antique equipment, not used in commerce, specifically in...

    M146 RV Conversion

    I forgot the pictures in my last post. On level ground I could do 55mph- But I kept it around 50. And you *can* back one up.

    SC Antique Truck Law

    Butch- I have IFTA stickers on my commercial truck- if it were gasoline, I STILL would have to pay the IFTA taxes for other states that I traveled through. The CDL thing is still very clear in SC. 26,000lbs or less, and not used in commerce, no CDL. 26,001lbs or more, or used in commerce...

    M146 RV Conversion

    I moved from VA to SC with a m146 on a dolly behind a m35. Total weight was 39,860lbs. All my shop tools were in the deuce and clothes and furniture in the trailer. And you can back one up- if you are really good and have patience. [thumbzup]

    XM818 of Death has died

    Well, score one for me. Instead of testing it, I just pulled the water pump. Here's what I found: It looked good when it came out. then I tried to turn the impeller- it turns on the shaft. Pulled it off, all the splines are sheared off, so it just freewheels on the shaft. Problem solved...

    XM818 of Death has died

    I did chew the driver out- but I'm not going to charge him for any parts. As was said, I chose to drive it home without fully diagnosing it first. I did the simple thing first- I replaced the thermostat. It became obvious that was not the problem, only AFTER I got off the interstate. I was on...

    XM818 of Death has died

    I know Bubba, it doesn't make much sense. But the temp gauge doesn't seem to be working right at all, so I'm not trusting it and will be changing the sensor and possibly the gauge. The TM says that's the first thing to check, water pump flow. Next is to do a pressure test of the cooling...
