The best place would be to put it in line between the fuel filter inlet and the lift pump. You can use the mighty vac as a pressure pump to circulate fuel up to the injection pump.
The "civilian solenoid" was probably a starter solenoid. They have two load terminals, a + coil terminal, and a ballast resistor bypass terminal. The case is grounded. If you install one of these it will fry your controller.
The correct solenoid is just that, a general purpose solenoid. The two...
I use Diamond Diesel at my job. I was mostly sending them Denso common rail pumps. I never noticed any difference between their reman units and new OEM. They use OEM parts. With that said, I don't know what they charge for a DB2. I think it may be $850. Worth a look. They sold me a seal kit to...
Stainless steel will still bleed rust when installed in wood. They are sensitive to crevice corrosion. You'll want silicon bronze or monel screws for best life. The new generation of coated construction screws are pretty good as well.
Generators are used for typically hotel stuffs such as lights and air conditioning. There are also a few pumps. Our sets are large because they also provide power for the winches. Our boats have 75 horsepower electric winches and up to 100 horsepower hydraulic winches.
I'm not a military guy, I just have a CUCV. I do operate a fleet of tug boats with 99-150KW generator sets. I have non-specific experience. The rectifier rings should easily tolerate 1800 and 3600 rpm conditions. What rpm do these MEP sets operate at? I've been assuming 1800 like most commercial...
If you buy Benjamin Moore paint, ask them to cross "US Government" for the brand. You can use the FS numbers from there. Perfect match. Other manufacturers may be the same.
The door is 1986 CARC, the fender is Aura.
I just assembled my 6.5 with the Lucas assembly lube. I don't mind the stickiness but every time I walk in the garage that dang bottle is on its side, leaking. I always used the Lubriplate stuff from work because I end up with cases of it after an overhaul but we've been buying mostly new...
I run Marathon generators in my fleet. I have 8 that were removed from service at 35000 hours and 14 others currently in service with hours ringing from 3,000-30,000. I have never had a rectifier failure of any type. I did have a stator failure.
With that said, Marathon generators are...
What I need is the entire back piece of the dash, the white/light blue-green part. Mine is crumbling. I wouldn't mind having the other bits, I would like a speedo to tinker with as I have some thoughts on how to fix the bouncing needle.
All of our shops are closing. They are too expensive to operate..I believe you have the same problem. The things you know about USA are quickly changing. Just keep that in mind.
Otherwise, to avoid special tools you only need a band saw. Get pre-formed bends and cut them up to get the angles...
K30 and CUCV except M1009 chassis, exhaust are the same.
Stainless steel exhaust parts aren't exactly on the shelf here in USA either. Nearly every needs to be custom made. Out here on the USA west coast the custom shops are inundated with vintage Ferrari restorations so it's difficult to get...
If it has sat for an extended period of time and the fuel pump is older, a bad throttle shaft seal will allow the fuel injection pump to drain back into the tank. You'll need to go through the priming process as if you put a new injection pump on to get everything going. A new lift pump can mask...
