Are you sure the solenoid is going all the way? Make sure the solenoid and linkage are completely clean. I sprayed carburettor cleaner on mine when it was sticking. I still sometimes have to manually pull on the linkage if it sticks.

You probably don't live with your parents, but you may be able to get it covered through your parents insurance company with you listed as an authorized driver. I know someone else that had a similar problem, although it didn't involve an MV, it was a muscle car. The guy convinced his Dad to...

The generator head on the 30D36R is made by Baldor and is a standard commercial item. I was able to obtain the original military manuals by contacting Andrew Spencer at Baldor. He was very helpful and since Baldor sells generators globally, he may be able to provide assistance. His contact...

If work doesn't interfere, I'll be there. Probably bring my A2 if there is room to park - it needs the exercise. Almost exactly 100 miles from my house.

I've welded with Hobart welders for many years and never had an issue. I currently have a Handler 187 with argon and it is great. Definitely get a 220V model. I've never used a Miller, but I know a lot of people that swear by Miller as well.

After you clean it up, try using a mirror on a stick to view the bottom. Maybe you can see where it's coming from with the mirror.

If you dismount it, I would highly recommend that you go ahead and replace the gaskets involved.

When I've recovered trucks and trailers, I've always gone to DMV ahead of time and pre-registered for a temporary tag and I've also gone ahead and received an insurance policy on trucks from State Farm. I wonder if GL is contacted ahead of time and proof of registration and insurance is...

Just because the NOS pump from TNJ Murray quit on you, don't assume it is a bad pump because your old pump was bad previously. Troubleshoot the problem and confirm that it is indeed a bad pump. It could also be a bad fuse, loose connection, etc.

I have no idea what those wheels are, but those are definitely not A3 rims. You can tell from the number of nuts securing the two wheel halves.

It looks like you have a heater from your avatar. Make sure the heater blowre switch is off as the heater is not powered through the master. Otherwise, do as others have suggested. You have a current draw and you need to isolate it circuit by circuit.

Caveats on the CTIS being operated in cold weather. 1. The CTIS should never be used below +20 F. and the ECU should be turned off. 2. Above +20 F. the CTIS should not be used (ECU turned off) before the truck is driven a minimum of 3 - 5 miles. 3. Anytime the CTIS is not being used, the...

Pete, The 14.5 X 20 Michelins do really great in the snow. we had several feet of snow last year and my F-150 4X4 was stranded. My A3 with the Michelins climbed right through the snow and was our only transportation the 10 miles to town for a few days. Made my wife like it better! The tires were...

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! You have come to the right place and have gotten started off right, by reading the posts. There is a lot of information here. You should also start reading the TMs on the A2, especially the operators manual. You will enjoy your A2 when you find it.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! Ditto on the VIN Info Thread.
