When you start it back up, check the output on the generator. It may have gone north, and is charging at a very high voltage. The fix is to just undo the black wire, then you will be running off just the batteries.
I would be there with the M814, but I am concerned about the dripping oil part. While it is not a big drip, I have some off the diffs, like a drip every two days when I use the truck. The front boots also drip, about the same rate. Can we put paper down? The M814 is also not "pretty" It...
Mine swears up and down that I have "stuff" stashed all over SC and GA. She just knows it...........
Well, I do have a CUCV hidden away, but let's just keep that our little secret......
Which full size model of truck are you using to build the model? Early 5 tons with the gasser, multifuel, or Mack, or the 809 series, with the Cummins engine?
Why in the world would they add a pump between the filter and the IP? Sounds like they had problems with the fuel system, and came up with the extra pump to solve it.
Check the fuel transfer valve on the floor(left side) and the flexible line from the filter to the IP. Either one or both could be your problem. AMGeneral has a thread on how to rebuild the valve, and NAPA makes hoses.
MV on snow? No problem, just air down the tires a little, and use common sense- a lot of common sense. Ice? Forget about it. Even with chains on all tires, driving on the roads will be tough- just google ice driving. As the case may be- it won't be you, it will be the jerk in the subcompact...
We may have to back into the LZ to fit, but I am sure we can get 20 trucks in there. If not, we can always use the M37 test track(those of you that were there last year know what I am talking about).
I wouldn't worry. You weren't the first to forget the valve on the floor, and you won't be the last.
I chased air leaks on my fuel system for weeks. My friend and hero told me to change the flexible line from the filter to the IP. I refused, thinking that it would be wet if it was letting...
WHen that happened to me, it was the complete failure of the clutch pads. All I had was a mound of clutch stuff in the bottom of the bell housing, and two metal plates trying to rub.
Maybe we can give then some shotgun seat time. I know they would have a blast riding in the "Long Easy" or in Ferro's M37 with no windshield or top. I could even drop the troop seats in the back, and let them have a load of fresh air.... I bet that would be nice after all the hot air under...
