One cautionary point: Ether can be used to assist a cold weather start or you can use the built in manifold heater. HOWEVER do not use both AT THE SAME TIME! THE ETHER WILL IGNITE IN THE INTAKE AND DAMAGE THE MANIFOLD. The Army has a number of trucks that come with ether kits from the factory...

It is a 12 volt circuit and the "glow plug" is on the intake manifold. Used in con junction with the hand fuel pump by the steering column it burns fuel in the manifold to heat the top of the engine. If you can get it spinning and everything works the truck will start in 10 degree weather There...

See if the -10 manual has any instructions on restarting the vehicle when out of fuel. With a 1009 you put 5 gallons of fuel in the tank, remove the pink wire to the injector pump so the fuel on off valve will remain closed, open the bleeder on the fuel filter and crank the engine over until it...

Try getting some air tool oil and feed that to them. Otherwise get new.

Pic of Kem tire hammer to break beads. I saw someone on U-Tube using a pick like this and if you are going top throw the tire out anyway it might work, but a sharp tool is as risk of damaging the sidewall of the tire and render it unserviceable.

Attached is a pic of battery configuration on a 2 battery truck. Rear right is positive, rear left ground, front positive and negative hooked together to make it a series arrangement. Just for giggles, does your truck have the regular military 3 lever light switch ? Is it still straight 24...

I believe the relevant TM is 9-2320-211-10 and 20. The 20 manual should include a wiring diagram and an explanation of what the numbers on the wires identify. On a 2 battery truck the lines to the starter and the ground originate from the appropriate terminal on the ends of the batteries closest...

Reference post 20: Scrounger is correct about the operation of the 809 series transfer case. The deuce has a rod going from the transmission cover to the transfer case to do this. The air operated device is to engage and disengage the Sprague. Only the newer trucks have this feature.

Reference the wires to the starter button: the trucks were built so that it was not necessary to turn on the lights to operate the starter. Some of the wheeled self propelled cranes did require the light switch to be on to energize the starter. Look in the publications forum on this site for the...

The ratio of cable to sheave size it 12:1. If you have 5/8" cable an 8" sheave would be indicated and such a block should be as strong as the cable and able to accept any load the cable does .I assume you are going to pull the 936 back to the road Are you are going to get a 923 with winch ...

I hope the previous owner has not "customized" the wiring to the point of destruction with unqualified personnel with unauthorized parts and tools working on it. Grease is cheap, parts expensive. Get ba lube order and read it. There ought to be at least 40 grease points on a cargo truck, 4 on...

Put the truck in high gear and stall the engine.

There is a picture on the dashboard that tells you where the gears are. 5th is in the front 4th is in the back. Understand how the light switch works. In "off" no brake lights or turn signals. There are 2 fuel tanks. There is a switch on the dashboard for fuel left or right. This changes the...

Check Doyle's book on Dodge military trucks. Side doors may have been locally fabricated rather than an issue item.

If you can get your trailer home google "Axle Surgeons" They have a facility in Kentucky from which they service southern Ohio. If it still in AZ they have a facility in Phoenix.

Well sports fans: trailer in question is no longer on the side of I 17 in north Phoenix @ 1400H 03.11.2019. If DPS has it, BRob18E look over your shoulder as AZ has an abandonment fee and I am sure some clerk somewhere will leave no fines, fees, or penalties unassessed and uncollected. If the...

I believe this equates to 12:1 which is the common ratio of cable to sheave size which is designed to keep the cable from folding too tight. A thimble is also put in a loop to protect nthe cable from flattening under load.

Reference is made to post 9: in order to get mechanical advantage a block has to move. If you count the capstan of the winch as a block and you establish a stranding block somewhere else and do not come back to the truck and you are not trying to winch the truck out of a hole then you have only...

Ratio cable to sheave is 12:1. If you have 1/2" cable you need at least a 6" sheave. A WW truck is issued 1 block, utility chain, a hammer, and punch above what a WOW truck gets. The hammer and punch are to drive out broken shear pins. If I was going someplace where I might get stuck I would...

he snatch block is your friend. The issue for a WW truck is one but I would carry more if I was going someplace where I expected to get stuck. A block can do 3 things but one at a time: develop mechanical advantage, change the direction of the pull or serve as a trolley block. The ratio of...
