    Xm1098 water tanker pony motor problems

    With a photo, I'm sure one of us could get you fixed up. We have a brush truck with a Hale gasoline pump, wiring will be similar.

    Wheel spindle lock washers - am I missing something?

    Oh for an independent auto parts store where the counter person would take the sample and come up with a new one. I'm glad to have that in my area.

    Plastigauge

    What engine are you working on?

    Plastigauge

    It varies by the size of the journal as I remember. Find an older Motors Manual. It has information on plastigauge use and bearing clearances, maybe on the engine you are working on.

    Darley P-100 Water Pump - Corrosion

    Good job on that. Even if the seal leaks, it should be good for your purpose.

    Fuel Tank Condition

    I had excellent results using KBS sealant. You can use 5 gallons of vinegar on the Jerry cans. Let it work a week or so.

    Fuel Tank Condition

    Your plan is good. After washing, treat the tank with Ospho or something similar. Weld the tank back together and coat with GOOD tank sealer. You'll be golden. See one of my previous post about sealing Jerry cans.

    Bad Starter or Flywheel?

    I know it will be a pain, but pull your starter and check the stroke of the solenoid fork. May be grunge or rust causing it to not move the pinion into engagement. If the truck will always start after a few tries, I'd live with it for now.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - July VOTE HERE!

    Don't even think about making dummy HazMat stuff! You will have BIG problems if you are questioned. This is from my perspective as a volunteer fire fighter.

    M35a2 weird brake system issues

    I've done master cylinders and it worked ok. I was very poor then and I don't recommend the practice.

    Looks promising. Best of luck.

    24v led lighted license plate

    The LED bulb shouldn't pull much current. Pretty much has to be another issue.

    1978 M416A1 Rebuild

    Older model jeep rims will do. You can buy new 16" rims but you'll have to use tubes.
