Thanks for the info! My A3 purrs right now. I will have a CAT Technician perform all the work it will need. I can fiddle with a big block or a Briggs&Stratton or even a 6.2 but I'll leave the CAT to the men with the tools. The engine runs so well I'd like to keep it that way. I have decided...

Welcome to the site. I had a cracked line to the left front wheel. It kinked and cracked. I have one wheel that deflates over the period of a week to 2 weeks. The CTIS will inflate the tire after a bit of button pushing. After the engine is warmed up, set the cable throttle to some RPM...

What is the service operation being preformed on these engines when it is referred to as a top-end? what adjustments are being preformed?

WE need a Rail-Road Forum! WOO WOO chug chug chuggaaa............WOOO WOOO RATTatat tat Bzzzrrruuwwww........:mrgreen:

yes what they said plus you can put the end user's Id on the form somewhere in the checked box area. that way you are approved. you are best off doing it by the book so when you get one it is on the up and up. Now find someone to bid on the truck.

Cause my A3 is quiet and the pheasant roosters have come up to the front tires trying to drive if from their territory and the 11 point buck just ran a few yards to get off the path and stood there and watched me watch it and I told the buck I would have been eating him If I would have been...

Hi welcome to the SS site! check out this link for some pictures of tires in 9.00 x 20 military. http://www.100dollarman.com/tires.html:driver:

Since it is multifuel, just add nitromethane to the diesel fuel in percentages commensurate to power level you want. The diesel fuel is just to ignite the nitromethane. I think you could get as much horse power out of that engine as you want. I don't think it will last very long though.:mrgreen:

You will have to complete a circuit to make the electrical do-dad work. BUT YOU CAN not ground anything to any surface of the truck!! If you use the rear battery for 12 volts to power something, you must ground it back to the rear battery and no where else! For example, if you mount a stereo in...

Think of it like this. If you take a positive lead and a negative lead(pair of jumper cables) off of the rear battery(next to the firewall) and stand away from the truck, you will be at least 12 volts(negative lead) higher than the fender you are leaning on. Now you tap the positive...

Doh I did a search and found it. it's even sticcky:rolleyes::doh:

SSsnot yet, Waz the part number?:deadhorse:

WWYD? M929A2 vs M929 Dump Trucks or install a Dump box on a M931A2 Tractor? Here is a picture of the dump box and hoist on the 56 Ford. Don't worry, the Ford is being sold as parts to restorers. This is the dump box I would have installed on the tractor. Which engine will be more servicable...

WOO WOOO, ding ding ding ding, when are we getting the railroad forum?

Awesome Truck! That is what I would do with a tractor if I did not have my A3. Now you need a 5 ton flatbed trailer to pull around.:-D

How about assembling tinned tubes and fins as described before and sandwich .025 shim stock between each fin and the next fin across the width of the radiator and tighten the stack of shim stock and then connect the stack to one side of a resistance soldering outfit and hook the tubes to the...

HOw about fluxing and tinning the tubes, then fluxing the fins, then assembling the radiator and then baking it to flow the tinned tubes to the fins. The brain slowed the rate of spinning long enough for this idea to pop out...... :doghead:

AAamazing! If one where to convince one of those micro model engine builders to make a working scale 250 and get a set of those working model rockwells and make up a tiny transmission and transfer case and tiny steering box.......... My brain is starting to spin like Linda Blair in the Exorcist...

USSR Your posts are always fun and informative. Thanks very much for posting and becoming a member to this site. On a lighter note, I am single and went to a site for Russian-Ukrainian ladies on a whim. I have much respect for the people I correspond with. If I find one, what do I have to...
