    Brake vent tube?

    No. Mine started as a small drip-drip-drip, then it turned into a stream every time the brakes were depressed. Maybe try a little air tool oil at the back side of the air pak, the seal in there might be dry.

    new enthusiast pre deuce purchase help please

    I think Armada and Recovery are both right. Yes it looks like a cluster, BUT, there are still parts on it that if one were to buy from Memphis, AV truck, e-bay or what ever, would be $100.00 or more, + shipping. Doors, fenders, any glass, stupid little items like knobs, handles, window...

    Explain Multifuel

    I'm running FedEx's mix of gas and diesel. Put around 800 mi on with it with no issues. I figure it's about a 50/50 to 60/40 mix, more toward the gas side. The only thing I notice is that if there is too much gas in it, the engine will have a tendency to "hunt" at a hot idle, so, i just add a...

    John Deere 1020 engine problem

    If it's a Bosch or pintle type injector, i've seen the spring on top of the pintle break, allowing the compressoin back into the fuel system. Depending on the spring, being broken or just deciding to loose some of it's tension, it will start and idle for a bit, start running rough, start smoking...

    M812 Cummins oil pressure

    Check it with a known good manual gauge, Daves correct, 35-40 at hot idle and 60-65 high idle. Usually not too many o/p issues with these engines. Depending what type of lube system you have, FFC or non FFC, you can check the regulator without removing the pump. Check the gauge 1st, it isn't...

    how hard is it to replace the oil cooler in my 68 deuce?

    Remember, oil or leaks in general don't run uphill. Make sure you torque the cans...I think it's 65 ft lbs, and don't let them turn when you tighten them or they WILL leak. They all will smoke, especilly if you let them idle for long periods of time. 56 MPH at 2500 is pretty much normal too...
