    Thanks BC, but I checked and it's not. :-)

    multifuel injection pump overflow valve

    According to my TM, the overflow valve spring free length is supposed to be 1.0000 inches long and compresed by a 4.55 to 5.05 lb force to 0.8400 inches. Maybe the shims are a sub for a new spring......

    FMTV up close

    I like the crane in that location also, better weight distribution. Well, you all know how critical I'm when it comes to new designs and changes simply for the sake of change. Looking at the tire tread, doesn't it look like they forgot the reason for the chevron (tractor tire) design, which is...

    multifuel injection pump overflow valve

    10 seconds isn't all that bad, depends on ambient temp too. The TM will state that if it doesn't start after 3 each 20 sec long cranking periods with a minute cool-down after each try, have you engine checked for a problem. You are nowhere near that. Do the filter bleeding anyway, before trying...

    My M35A2 and M715 Kansas Trucks now in Texas!

    RE: Re: RE: My M35A2 and M715 Kansas Trucks now in Texas! Really look nice! So you have 36!! MVs, must be some kind of record, do you plan on keeping them all?

    updated pics of my hemtt restoration

    Hmmm...at least you don't have to see the old one to operate it.....I don't know, great job in any case.

    multifuel injection pump overflow valve

    So your problem is just that it's "slow to start"... 1) How often do you start it? 2) Run the in-tank pump for a minute or two while bleeding the secondary/final filters. Air here will make it slow to start. As a side note, don't run the starter for more than about 20 seconds without letting...

    Electrical Problem

    Re: RE: Electrical Problem Yes, and the ground for each sealed beam is one wire for each lamp grounded to the frame on each side....no other ground in that circuit. The indicator is grounded via the dash.

    updated pics of my hemtt restoration

    Great pictures! Intersting study in construction method...flat panels, straight lines, the welding.... The lightswitch seems a little hard to reach (and see) while driving.

    MTVR vs Humvee

    Yeah, that must be one of the biggest problems on the interstate when you drive a truck with limited top speed in traffic, a semi is on an on-ramp ahead and you have no place to go except to slow down and hope it will avoid what happened here. The semi rarily has no choice but to keep going...

    Utah to Michigan

    Maybe we can work together on this, I have a truck bed going East from Idaho Motor Pool (near Boise, ID). The bed is 8 ft wide and 15 ft long..... Getting it to Michigan would be a big help.

    Air Presure Issues

    Check the relief valve, it may be stuck open (item 6 in the image). Do you hear any hissing sound(s) after you shut off the engine? How is the tension on the compressor drive belt?

    MTVR vs Humvee

    The HMMWV must have stopped very suddenly for the driver to be thrown forward....or am I missing something...again?

    TACOM SWITCHES and the M35

    Thing is, that there is probably still power applied even when "off". A circuit diagram would be needed to say for sure, but that's my guess, otherwise, the touch pad couldn't be activated after it's turned off. Adding an external switch that can handle the max current rating of the light...

    TACOM SWITCHES and the M35

    The 3-lever switch is connected directly to battery and can be used without the in-tank pump running, for example. A capacitor may or may not do it, a very large zener diode or a varistor large enough to absorb a load dump could do it. Look at the MX-7777 guts (designed to handle all...
