    ignition coil blew up today...

    With few exception, there is no such thing as a 6, 12, or 24V coil. When GM went from 6 to 12V, they just addded a ballast resistor to keep the current within limits. I have measured numerous reo and gmc coils and each measured identical to every old old 6 or 12V coil that I could find. The...

    Correct Deuce Air Filter - Donaldson P11-7551 doesn't exist?

    If air flow with the smaller filter is really a problem, it should trip the air filter indicator. If it does not, the air filter is fine.

    Rod knock

    4000 hours is still respectable for a tractor of that era using oils of that era.

    Rod knock

    8000 hours is about double what has been reported on the internet: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/73830-oliver-2150-multifuel-4.html but most of the trouble in the tractors seems to be related to leaking fuel injectors. The multifuel has a 22:1 compression ratio whereas the tractor is...

    Drag Race Tranny

    This would assume zero wheel slip and no clutch slippage. Doesn't the clutch slip and gradually lock up?

    lds wastegate turbo on an M35

    I talked to the folks at a regional turbo repair shop. They brought up a few points: -This is a very old design (384 were built in 1969). -While rebuild kits for a basic 4LE are available, housings and turbines are no longer supported by Borg Warner. -Very few turbos had wastegates during...

    lds wastegate turbo on an M35

    I found two pieces of the wastegate valve seat in the turbo. Looks like it has been that way for awhile. Going to rebuild it.

    lds wastegate turbo on an M35

    Well, I put the D turbo back on. The best that I could get out of the LDS turbo was 8 psi and that was with the FDC bypassed and the temp rising fast. Swapping the D turbo back on with no other changes yielded 13 psi and much lower EGT. I suspect that the wastegate valve is leaking or the...

    hydraulic power steering kit

    Why would you try to fit a "common" pump to the multi adapter when you can go a populer online auction site and get one for $150?????????

    hydraulic power steering kit

    Sure, but they are out there and only a phone call away. The acquisition cost may not be cheap but they are an EASY solution where there isn't much room for a belt driven pump.

    hydraulic power steering kit

    There are CAD dwgs for the fame stiffener which make that component's fabrication trivial. You can use the frame stiffener and a hand drill to mod the frame. The 8.5" pitman arm on the 4-line boxes works fine, and the draglink is a simple sleeve that anyone with a lathe can make. Here are the...

    hydraulic power steering kit

    Their catalog shows all of the components; but they make a dedicated kit too? When I asked about just the valve, the cost was $1200!
