I used to leave my truck at work. No problems for about 4 months and then ~$1000.00 worth of damage from vandals. If it was me, I'd take it home.

I took three photos of the switches and one of the pneumatic lines going to them. It was very hard to see everything at once. I also went underneath the truck, but the location where the lines go through is not visible due to the transmission. After looking at the switches, I really think...

I'll try to take some photos for you. One question - was your truck originally a winch truck? If not, perhaps whoever installed the winch screwed up and reversed the lines.

This has me confused as well. As you say, this is a very simple setup. Are you absolutely certain that the airlines aren't switched? That is the only thing I can think of. If the lines are switched, air pressure will go backwards through the switch and energize the winch with the switch in...

If the 12 gal generator fuel tank is clean, I'll take it.

The first thing to do is get a full set of the TMs and read!

Ask for new photos of the gauge once pressure has built up.

Sorry, I read M54, not M51.

No, they are not the same. Edit: I mistakenly read M54

I would keep it simple and use the 24 VDC pump.

When I was on active duty, one of our guys put a recap on the front of a 5-ton. This was strictly forbidden. Only new tires were permitted on the front. One of the recaps blew out, he lost control of the truck, crossed the centerline hitting a civilian car, and wiped out an entire German...

The Prestolite alternator in my M35A3 has been declining for a few months. The needle is now firmly in the yellow on the gauge. I checked the voltage with my meter. The alternator is putting out 27 VDC regardless of the engine RPM. Then I discovered something interesting. The data on the...

Don't forget Swedish. Learning Swedish is compulsory in Finnish schools because it is a legal language in addition to Finnish.

Did FLU419s come with a removable ignition key? In my experience, most U.S. military vehicles did not come with keys, simply an on/off switch. Some military vehicles with keys had the key glued in so that it couldn't be removed. My M1030M1 USMC diesel motorcycle is such an example. My SEE...

It depends on what State you live in.

Get it resurfaced.

Yes, about 3 - 5 seconds.

I think the switch is designed to dump air from the line once the switch is placed in the off position. Otherwise, when you turn the switch off, the line to the winch will still hold pressure and although the switch is off, the winch is still energized. When I switch the winch to the off...

You will really like your MEP003A genset. Mine sees a lot of use as a backup for my whole house. I've been using it over eleven years with virtually no problems. I like the fact that it is air cooled. One caveat, don't idle the engine. Shut it down at full RPM / 60 Hz.

I started de-rusting my current 160ATSA195 Oregon bar that came on the chainsaw and which is the correct bar. The bar has damage from the jack hammer laying on top of it. I've now trashed it. As I mentioned, Oregon has no records of manufacturing this model. I talked to someone else at...
