Check the torque converter to flywheel bolts too. Mine made the noise at odd intervals until I pulled the cover and found one of the 6 about 1 turn loose.

Depending on the housing you get. Spacing it off the fire wall might be needed. I didn't like mine when bolted to the stock mount because the filter can was just about on the valve cover. So, I removed the stock mount and used a cut off piece of M35 troop seat leg for a spacer to mount the...

Will the GSA truck flat tow? If you guys really are bringing something of somebody elses to my place, then it would make sense for me to have the GSA truck at my place for you. If you aren't bringing the thing belonging to somebody else to my place, then I would be out of the way for you...

It reads as if yours does the same as mine. No clicking related to the light coming on and off, the truck starts right up and sometime in the first 30 seconds to 1 minute of running a click can be heard and the volt meter jumps up to the green from just below the green in the yellow. Warthog...

They are ebay almost constantly. Spin ons seem to be the wave of the future though.

Mine has the resistor not only bypassed, but on the shelf in the shop. I figured if 12 volt plugs don't ever need to see 24 volts, the best way to make sure they didn't was to make only a 12 volt power supply to them. We have had mid 20° mornings the last few days and we might see maybe...

I have done a 40 mile away recovery of a pair of gassers, 200 mile away recovery, a 400 mile away recovery of 4, a 800 mile away recovery and a 1100 mile away recovery of Dueces. Each was driven or flat towed. Adding up all the cost and the miles brings it to about $1.00-$1.50 per mile. Some...

Right at the yellow and green line is an indication that 1 of the alternators is working and you have around 26 volts in the system. My #2 alternator was suffering from a bad diode trio when I got the truck. Since that battery is only used for starting, I went ahead and drove the truck while...

Was your check valve on the top of the IP dirty? How about your exhaust, is one of the pipes flattened as if a fork lift picked it up wrong and pinched it shut? Air in doesn't help if you aren't getting air out. What kind of mileage are you getting? Keeping the truck below 65 mph should...

Go back over the glow plug system and verify power is getting to each and every plug. It should fire up in less than a second with working plugs.

With the truck running, check each battery individually. With it running, 14.4 volts is what the reading will be with a good alternator. Should be 12.4-12.6 volts with the truck not running and the key off. What does your in dash volt meter say? If one or both of the batteries is not...

Allen, Red Rock Duece/Boxcar should make it as well with his M35.

Here is a kit like what you want: Rostra 250-1223 Universal Electric Cruise Control Kit JC Whitney might have it cheaper but I didn't look there this morning. You can put the magnet on the drive shaft for the VSS. A mid '80's Dodge Omni had an electronic VSS built into the mechanical...

I like it. Thanks for working on this.

Your starter is bad. That is way to slow cranking for a new set of batteries. The pink wire is the one you pulled off and put in the air intake to bleed the fuel filter. Make sure 12V is getting to the end of the pink wire and that you can hear the on/off solenoid inside the injection pump...

Can you tell a difference with the new filter?

Check the timing too. That silly 230 will run 40°-60° off time. It will seem to run pretty good that far off to. Just not very fast. Also, pulling the spark plugs would be a good idea. They are kind of difficult to get to and people tend to just not check or change them. It is also a...

I third what Warthog and doghead wrote. I will also add this. You can not "flood out" a diesel by pushing the pedal with the engine not running. It is a mechanical fuel injection set up. Pumping the pedal until your leg is cramping is no different than never touching it as far as the...

BFG 33 x 12.50 AT tires went on yesterday. No more shakes above 62 mph, looks better, is way more stable at speed and hopefully, the mileage will stay about the same running a few mph faster. Replaced all the filters and fluids a week or so ago. The Transmission drops down to 1st when I am...

I plan to get the check in the mail tonight or Wednesday. Thanks for doing this.
