Kudos to TNriverjet, who went above and beyond the call of duty fiduciary or fraternally and sent me another tachometer. [I WILL get one back to you soon's as I figure this out]. I could use some help troubleshooting this, folks. Anyone with some direct experience/knowledge please chime in...

I would and I could, but I'd rob you of the pure joy and priceless learning experience of working with the manuals (TMs) to find the parts you're looking for. Took me about an hour including time spent on the evil auction site and several MV parts sellers. Start with TM 9-2320-280-24P-2...

Says "commercial use." Right there on the paper. Not "private" use. :deadhorse:

Welcome. You'll find more information here than you can possibly absorb - but feel free to look around, soak up as much as you can and ask questions. Thinking about buying a trailer myself. Keep us posted with progress/mods, pictures if possible.

MEP-802a here, and I keep a 4x8 foot heavy-duty tarp on it held down with 1 pound lead weights I cast for bullet-making (.45 Colt, .38 S&W as I tend to go through several thousands of them every year, more when my wife and/or kids shoot with me), just drilled 1/4" holes in them and ran black...

Or this, if you want to remove CARC too: https://www.amazon.com/Citri-Strip-QCG73801T-Varnish-Stripping-1-Quart/dp/B000QFCP1G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1488380053&sr=8-1&keywords=citrus+paint+remover I've used this on several parts already and it's fairly fast, definitely will remove carc and...

Or, in true old-school military fraternal fashion, find the aforementioned individual and get him alone for some wall-to-wall counseling and/or a blanket party. Or the digital equivalent of same.

I got lucky. Was replacing the batteries the other day (Optima yellow tops - prior owner put in some cheap garden center tractor batteries about a year old now - genset would start, take an hour to recharge. Optima? Starts FASTER, recharged in less than ten minutes), got to thinking about...

Milemarker hydraulic uses a different controller. Yellow, IIRC. Top two pins are reversed. There's several posts here on changing the pins. You basically take the rear components off the cannon plug, disassemble the plug, push two pins out, switch places, reassemble, works great (mine...

Correction. Measured the sender (tachometer, mechanical) resistance and it varies 0.1-0.3 Ohms engine off. Like I said, engine on, nothing. Wiring's good, good continuity everywhere. Definitely getting voltage to the tach with switch on, 25+ engine off, 27.+ running/charging - needle...

Wired in tachometer but it doesn't work (yet). Will troubleshoot that tomorrow. Got the light switch panel plugged in, still tinkering with wiring/connections, but the overhead lighting works great - it's on a dimmer. Just bought a 10M roll of 24V leds, ran a double row in the back (44" x 2)...

Well... Got everything plugged in today, wiring harness connected, splices done, switched power on, needle jumped a bit, started truck and... nothing. Will poke around again tomorrow maybe, check again for power/ground, but I'm wondering if the wires coming off the tachometer mechanical...

Cool.

Welcome, thanks for sharing.

Came across this today in my FB feed and it reminded me of many posts here (and elsewhere) including several of my own. When speaking with professionals, experts, it helps to be specific and know the right words to ID parts, procedures. Some might laugh, others not, no offense meant.

Am I correct in assuming the tank vents (fore and aft at the filler) shouldn't need to be changed? Only handling fumes, they seem in pretty good condition.

Thanks. I will need to siphon as I don't have a rack and a 25 gallon container to catch the flood. Working my way through 24P-1 adding up hose lengths as I go. It's a lot more than I thought, several feet already. I figure if I do this just once, for the rest of the time I own the truck I...
