Use a 10mm wrench and open the bleeder on the back side of the injection pump and pump that button until a constant stream of fluid comes out. I recommend putting in a schrader valve on the fuel cap and pressurizing the fuel system gently to find leaks (if any) also you can avoid pumping...
If I was closer I'd be game but it sounds like you have bad fuel lines. Very easy to do. Just put a schrader valve on the fuel cap, pressurize, and you'll find the problem. No Soldier B required. :roll:
I've noticed this too, a deuce may do the job if the trailer is unloaded but a 5 ton is what should be pulling it. I've also had a lot of ticklishness with the brakes on all 3 of my 1082s so I just caged them all and even then they need a little bump to get moving.
You can cage the brakes like any commercial truck or trailer, you will need 4 nuts and bolts to do the 4 chambers (2 per wheel) which look slightly different from this commercial one but the steps are the same.

Depends what you can get an engine for? I get used running 250s for under a grand around here, maybe it's worth it to you but what's your end game? Toy or $$? If it's a toy then put something else in it like a 6CTA (I've always wanted to see what that would be like in an M809 truck) but if it's...
I've had 50+ trucks of all the variants and I agree "there's no replacement for displacement"..unless you're trying to make that 250 climb a hill, tow a load, at highway speed, at high altitude, etc.. pick two and it's a turd. Now the 400 is a monster but that's not a fair comparison. Yes, the...
That's a rare setup and neat that it all works but putting it into recovery service will be a stretch if it has any on-road driving to do. Yes the over width is an issue but as is the low top speed of 43 mph, couple this with low MPG (TM shows 300-350 miles per 2 tanks of 83 gallons each for a...
Sounds like a solenoid was stuck in the replacement box. 939 series boxes work with the M809 trucks but not vice versa but that doesn't seem to be the issue here. At the moment there is no permanent workaround besides replacing the relays, the box, or jumping the truck manually at this time...
