Sweet? You BETCHA!!! 1986 M1031 SECM with 9009 miles ORIGINAL on the drive train, ONE HOUR on the 12 kW Lima MAC generator. Two sets of NATO cables, one long one. Tow bar pads (clamp on) and a mystery box of fittings, could be just a box. $4601 plus tax and buyer's premium. It has street...

14 days from submission to customer notified. EUC submitted 6/12 Customer notified 6/26 FIRST TIME.

EUC submitted to Battle Creek 6/12/2012 DLA Letter Received 6/25/2012 Customer (me) notified 6/26/2012 Now the MAD DASH to Ft. McCoy. :grd:

Sonic energy is the non-uniform pressure. These pulses in the exhaust manifold upstream of a turbocharger ARE a significant part of the total enthalpy (that is energy) which is extracted by the turbine. Heat and pressure, the "sonic" moniker distinguishes this as dynamic pressure, rather than...

The injection timing in the DB2 pump is controlled by three mechanisms, one of which is centrifugal. The mechanical advantage of the mechanism rises with speed, it can go over-center which will lock this timing advance. I've heard of this rarely but it can happen. Normally, if this happens...

Minimal improvement, the exhaust is already dual and more than sufficient for naturally aspirated. Turbocharged trucks can get by without a muffler because the turbine absorbs the sonic energy and converts it to mechanical energy which then goes to compressing the intake air.. Temperature...

Army Oil Analysis Program, AOAP. Used for periodic monitoring of wear metals, fuel dilution, soot load and lubrication value. Saved a lot of oil, samples were initially drawn using a Vamp Gun (vacuum pump with disposable straws, sucked oil from dipstick hole directly), then valves made this...

My first EUC was sent to Battle Creek on 6/12/2012, the letter was mailed on 6/21, I received it today, 6/25 (a Monday). I'm watching invoice status like a hawk.

One other issue with fuel, the little hose between the final filter and injection pump could have collapsed. This happens because the tank cap has a vent which must be open to run but closed during storage. If stored with minimal fuel, temperature drop causes a vacuum to form, causing this...

Plus with this conversion, clutch safety switches can be omitted. Starting with clutch depressed assures bearing wear until oil pressure increases. There is one other reason for this conversion, on my (soon to be released) M1031 SECM, the PTO driven generator will have much easier frequency...

Not a good idea, mechanical pumps are diaphragm type and failure mode is ruptured diaphragm. If you were to use an electric, it would either draw air (down stream of mechanical pump) or force fuel through the diaphragm (upstream of mechanical pump). Fuel pumps are easy to change, I've done...

Nice. All I really need is the NV4500 to NP 205 transfer case. I can get the rest locally for less. Still wondering if the thrust bearing can handle the clutch load.

Couldn't hurt, just be sure to flush it out of the injection pump. You do this by hooking up the supply lines and then running the return line to a waste container instead of the tank. It is the small line on the tank. I fear something else is amiss in the injection pump.

You are most welcome. Back when I was a young buck private in the US Army, we were getting these in. People may say they are loud, they are whisper quiet compared to the 5 and 10 kW gasoline units. Plus they use half the fuel, meaning you can get a week with a 55 gallon drum and a 5 gallon...

Looks great but quite expensive. I'm looking at Lizardskin thermal on the outside and sound on the inside bottom with thermal on the headliner. Then custom fit rubber mat on the floor. This will help on the heat and noise.

The water heater with central air will be an issue. If you can work without the AC, you should be fine. Or live without the water heater. Even better would be running the house off one 002A, then using another to drive the AC. You can break out the feeds and use the low voltage control...

Sorry, family issues

If the solenoid does not lift off the injection pump control lever when in start and run, there are two switches which interrupt current to it. These are the low oil pressure switch and over-temp switch. When the master switch is in the start position, these are bypassed. The solenoid is...

Does the lever on the injection pump rise when the cut off solenoid energizes? If not, no fuel will be injected. These gum up easily. Berryman B12 carb cleaner will dissolve diesel gum, just make sure to flush it from the pump, don't soak more than 15 minutes as it can swell the o-rings.

If you cut and transplant the top, be sure to cross brace both the remaining cab and replacement top. Use weld-through primer inside the weld joint area, the touch up with a good rust proofing primer after welding using a straw and small holes from the inside.
