    M109 Trip to Owls Head, Maine

    Try this next time when you run out of power in fourth. Downshift the transfer case to low and go to fifth with the transmission. If you still lose speed drop to fourth. That big gap between 3rd and 4th is a killer on the hills. Fill the hole using low range. Besides, split shifting is fun!

    I.P. Hyd. head and fuel shut off question

    I installed a NOS head for member Alanb. We unwrapped the the head and the button and retainer were laying in the paper! There does not seem to be a pattern to them falling off.

    Not if the button on the bottom fell off. Prepare to pull the HH.

    Hale P250 Water pump

    How do these engines cool themselves? Do they have a radiator? What about a coolant pump? Let me guess, they use water from the pump. Close up pics of the engine?

    What's an acceptable daily voltage drop for a battery if the truck is just sitting?

    What is your resting voltage? Let the batteries set for a day and monitor the voltage every day. I think you have a weak or dragging stater. Check amp draw when cranking.

    What's an acceptable daily voltage drop for a battery if the truck is just sitting?

    Remember that a fully charged battery that has rested unused will read 12.5 volts. If you check battery voltage after shutdown it will be higher. Alternators typically put out 13.8 volts. Check for amp draw at the battery terminals with an amp meter. The only way to find it.

    I'm using tapa talk app on my phone. I touch and highlight each post I want to quote. Maybe someone using a browser can chime in.

    1987 deuce recovery

    If you go aluminum you will need a fuel pump. My bobber runs a 24v frame mounted. A dual brake truck, cool!

    You can do multiple quotes in one reply. Put your responses under each quote. That is your homework from the school of Steel Soldiers!

    Unique battery wiring screw up on 09

    My stays in the yellow until the glow plugs turn off. On a cold engine they put quite a load on the drivers side alt after start up if the resistors are bypassed. Run the truck and get the engine up to operating temp before checking your charging system. Or disconnect the GP solenoid once it is...
