Got the fuel tank selector valve out the other day, took it apart tonight. Removed the hoses and will get new ones made for it. It was gunked up in the valve. Got it out and used parts cleaner to get the heavy stuff out. Still some gunk in it, what's the best way to get it clean and shiny?

I got the fuel selector valve out of the M818 the other day and just removed all the hoses (to be replaced) and took the valve apart to clean it. It was kinda frozen in place. I used a lil' gun oil on it and worked it a bit and it broke free. It was pretty gunky in the valve. I used parts...

I got the selector valve out of the truck and lines off to be replaced. The valve was stuck in one position and had some build up in it. I spray parts cleaner inside of it. No out of the ordinary wear. What is the best way to make it shiny and clean inside?

That would be a good thing to have available....:)

I removed the fuel tanks for cleaning. I removed the spare tire rack....it's scrap because it was hacked apart before I even got it. Drained out the crank case. Next is to drain the coolant and pressure check the radiator. I have a "laundry" list of things to check and go through. The...

I got the tanks off and the fuel lines have been messed with along with the vent lines.

Anything updates for this thread?

No worries. I'm not in a rush.

That would be great.

I pressure washed the years of land fill build up off of my M818.

Just some of the lines on the tanks up to the fuel switch, nothing crazy. Overhead pic of the lines on the tanks would be great. Thank you.

Ordered a replacement fuel filter kit and a dual fuel line feed kit. Then going to work on the tanks and replacing all the fuel lines to and from. Need to drain and clean the tanks. That will be a good start. Need to get the passenger side diamond plate fuel tank cover and the diamond plate...

Excellent job!!! Can't wait to get mine done. Have to get everything mechanical working first.

Does anyone have some good pics of the fuel lines on their M818? I have the TM up and I am looking at the schematics. Just wondering if anyone has pics of the way the fuel lines are on their truck. Thanks.

I need one of these, where can I source it? My googlefu is not turning out any results.

If they were the stock lines I would do it in a heart beat....but they are all cobbled so I don't know what is original or scabbed together.

I'll check your post out. Those sound like a good upgrade.

Going to be tackling the fuel system with the 5 ton shortly. What fuel line should I use to replace what's there? Going to be replacing the filter and everything. Also going to get the dual tanks working. It appears they hacked into them and made a mess trying to keep it running.

I just picked up my M818 today....I know the feeling!!!
