    Please don’t say head gasket…

    After doing some reading, it looks like I need the “special” head bolt wrench. Anyone have one to sell? Or know where to find one? Or a good link that shows a DIY I could make? Thanks

    Local zoning is targeting my trucks

    Yep, I’d ask for the actual code number in violation; and then read it myself.

    Local zoning is targeting my trucks

    I am in Ohio also, unfortunately about 180miles away or else I’d offer to let you park on our 20acres, we are outside of city limits and sit back off the road in some woods

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    It takes a few extra cranks to get her started, but I also blame that on my wmo/fuel mixture. As for smoke, it has never seemed to puff extra smoke. It does puff a little blue because of my wmo/fuel mixture, but has never puffed any “extra” when reving or driving hard that I have noticed...

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    In the meantime, I would also like to thank everyone and the knowledge shared here. We all kinda know things, but it’s always that one rare case that someone somewhere has dealt with that gets shared As of now, the valve cover gasket areas are 100% dry.

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    Every time this truck gets started it’s driven, but there’s literally only been one time I drove/creeped it 2mins to my barn and shut off. Other than that, I start the truck, idle for 5-10mins then drive it, usually at LEAST 25miles if not way more at a time. I pulled the #6 injector last...

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    I haven’t had the time to poke around yet; unfortunately. I’m sure this coming weekend I’ll find a few hours to get into the garage.

    Random PTO question

    How can I find out what all types of PTOs fit on the deuce? Is there a list somewhere? I’ve come across this Chelsea unit locally and was curious how I would know if it would work/fit? I’m not saying I wanna buy it(although it would be nice to have a pto driven pump). I know that’s a very...

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    I’ll probably pull all injectors and test them. Finally got all my fittings to convert for a pop tester.

    Got my new deuce!

    Slobber tube. It is open to the atmosphere; normal. Some people extend that just below the front diff to help cut down on the oil spray/mess.

    Please don’t say head gasket…

    Looking over the truck this afternoon and I noticed a wet area around the #6 exhaust manifold. All areas around the intake manifold including the coolant passages, and valve cover appear to be dry. It almost appears to be black and sticky. Maybe a bad exhaust gasket, and the “fluid” is my wmo...

    Cleaning out and resealing old Jerry Cans

    Although caution must be used, I use Muriatic Acid to wash my tanks, $5-$7/gal. It eats away any rust and any paint/coatings. Then I reseal using a “tank sealer” of choice.

    In-tank pigtail/twist lock

    I ordered two of these kits shown below. Everyone seems to be out of the parts kits, but I found these pre assembled ones. I’ll cut the wire and add on the length needed, then heat shrink/silicone/heat shrink/and so on. I’ll test my waterproof connection in a bucket before the fuel tank. For...
