A picture. Circled parts "A" and "B" are vulnerable to hard particle damage, possibly other parts too like the injectors themselves. PS. Kenny, I know we have covered this many times, so I try to add a little each time I post a reply. :-)

Thanks for posting Will! Working on odd vehicles does not produce a lot of responses, so thanks again.:-D Edit: Oh, yeah, could you expand on this "I will steam the parts real good", please.

The FDC, actually a device that adjusts the fuel delivery to the engine IP based on its viscosity, not density.... For the fuels specified for this engine in the TMs and on the dash data plate, the "heating value" is directly proportional to the viscosity. That means that if you run on #2...

Yes you can, but the lamp current will be handled by the turn signal switch, with all its gold plated contacts....in an emergency it should be okay. I think some grade school kid designed some of these flashers, I took one apart one time and found a simple oscillator plus a power transistor...

If you jump "K" to "C" then you'll bypass the 3-lever light switch. The "A" pin must have 24 volts on it as well. Edit: Adding that I have some reservations here, looks like you'll need a new light switch, since other circuits may be effected also.....

The boost gauge is simply a mechanical pressure gauge, use copper or fuel resistant plastic tubing, like "air brake" tubing (NAPA). 1/4 inch OD is perfect and fittings are available anywhere, 1/8 NPT for the engine intake manifold port......

Yeah, I believe he got the same Crosby hook I have, found mine on ebay for $45 a few years back.... Edit: added image.

You can always read up on it, TM 9-2350-247-10, -20 etc. I believe that they were originally able to "swim", but later only fording was covered in the manual(s). May have been a safety thing.

Joel, I see you found a hook. I have a hook that was not rated high enough in the early days and it began to change shape under load, make sure you have a hook rated for you crane...about 8 tons or so, or be mindful about what you lift.

The multifuel engine in the deuce uses 60 lb/hr (about 8 gal/hr) at full power. Even with 2 or 3 times that amount pumped thru the system for IP cooling etc, you are fine with your first choice of Racor filter (500FG). Also, as a primary fuel filter/water separator the pressure drop is minimal...

There is very little crankcase pressure from blowby and the gasket at the "adapter" on top shouldn't leak other than some oil perhaps. Fumes from the breather tube is normal, more if the truck has been idling a lot.....

Clinto, I got a full set from kcgonzo a few years ago at a very good price.....

Thanks, I'll contact David.

If the engine TM is there, please point (TM5-2805-204-14?), thanks.

The flasher unit case (housing) is not grounded, the unit is grounded via the "C" wire, which should have a ring terminal crimped to it......

The TMs for the genset may be in the resources section, but probably not the one for the engine itself. TM 5-6115-275-12 and -35 don't cover the engine, but should be in the TM5-2805-204-14. There are generic kits for converting to propane.

Gotcha, thanks, I go out on a branch sometimes. :-)

Some -20 TMs have extensive sections on the use of the "Low Voltage tester". The TM 9-2320-260-20 (1972), for example has 20 or more pages on the use of several models.....

Yeah, and the motor is magnetically coupled to the impeller, so it's not easily damaged.

What you need is one of these, it keeps a warning light on when the pump is running without the engine being "on".;-) Edit: And please, tell us how this resistor wired in, you are killing me (us?)..
