    XM818 a semi failed recovery

    Once we get him home I'm gonna strip the system completely & replace every line front to back. Probably stick with just one fuel tank. Might put the extra in tank deuce pump we've got in there as well. Do t know yet on that. Requires more reading and thought yet.

    XM818 a semi failed recovery

    I'm learning towards a air leak i can't find, or a something is stuck in a line somewhere. I hope it's not the pump. The truck itself just about broke the bank, the trailer home has more than smashed the bank. So a new pump would be many many months out. I do suppose the fuel line could be...

    The screen wasn't bad. The screw is a pain to get out of there though.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Since the deuce has become my daily driver, & I've finally gotten the 12volt set up working right. I added a radio. Now I can listen to the news on the way to work. About 30 minutes each way.

    Thinking of MRAP super singles

    Get a mount / dismount tool. I used these for years while working at Goodyear / Wingfoot. They're great for getting tires on and off the hubs once you figure out the technique. They're about $50 online. I'll be trying it out on 395's on MRAP wheels next week. So we shall see.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    More like in the last 3 weeks than just this week. Replaced the axel boots, & regreased the front end. Completely rebuilt the 12volt system. Blasted fire department must have added a mile of extra wire. Replaced the pyro. Again. Bought new shoes, 395/85/r20. Ordered MRAP wheels & adapter...

    Prius pulling. A recovery of sorts.

    True statement. Funny thing here, that our IP is but a few months old. Was reman by AMBEC back in 99 and sat in a box till we put it in back in February or March of this year. It's a late G code pump I think, has no FDC from the factory, To add some more humor here, I drove around for 3 days...
