Each time I work on my tires I replace the flaps if they look old. One tire had the flap taped with duct tape to hold it together.

I kind of follow Austin Aviation in looking for M66 parts. Rarely does a cushion appear. When it does, sold quickly. I made a couple of dozen of the cab reinforcement plates and sold them quickly. Another member made more and sales were also brisk. I suspect there is a market for 50 or...

My thoughts were that coolant would find many places to hide in the engine. So, watching the slobber tube vent seemed reasonable. It ultimately was not making so much white 'smoke' which I think was steam. Seems to be the way it was.

We discovered the water when we changed the oil last April. I did not get the o-rings fixed until July. Some water got into the oil though not much. I checked the oil again in September and it still showed some coolant in it. After driving it a few hours, watching the slobber tube and again...

I got caught up with work today and decided it was time to check the oil since the o-rings change on the oil cooler. Nothing but oil. Those o-rings were the problem apparently. :D

I will take two of each

Fox urine is available at most feed stores. It stinks. It will keep rodents and such away. Also humans if you put on stuff. Best to put it in a lid or something so you can toss it out.

No matter whose product you choose, and there are several, you will be doing your MV a big favor by switching to a complete spin on filter setup.

Everyone needs to put the primary filter can into the trash. I have not seen one that is not rusted and nasty. JT makes the easiest of the adapters to install, in my opinion. Very quick to install and works like a charm. If you do not use JT's adapter get another from OD Iron or someone...

Absolutely the best idea and use for a Folger's coffee container. I have been using them for three years. They work perfectly, last a decent amount of time and are easily available for replacement.

I have two Deuces.

I do not think that will be a problem. But, also the magnet is so strong I am not sure glue is needed at all.

1/2 inch rare earth.

OK, it is getting to be oil change time again. I wanted magnetic drain plugs for the deuces. Where to find them? I got four 7/8-18 drain plugs from O'Reilly Auto Parts for $4 each. I got some super magnets off eBay for $8. Smaller than a dime. Some Gorilla Glue and thirty minutes later I...

From reading the posts on this, what may be happening is the alloy shrinks a bit and the gasket is compressed on installation. That may be solved by a re-torque of the adapter. At 56 degrees here, that is unlikely to happen.

It is 51 here and my spin on bases are not leaking.;-)

They are easy enough to rebuild. Get a brake cylinder hone for the small piston area and use emery cloth for the big air cylinder if necessary. Follow the TM and pay special attention to cranetruck's thread on this. Rebuild kits are readily available. Change the rear square plug to a hex...

I was getting coolant in the crankcase. The o-ring that was bad had a small portion of it discolored, they were orange and the defective portion was very dark.

I changed out the same oil cooler gaskets and o-rings. The o-rings were the problem.

I change all my plugs to hex pipe plugs to use hex wrenches for removal. The square head plugs are difficult to remove when painted and such.
