This thing, deuce on civvy truck axles, gloss black deuce with chrome accents... why do some people have a burning desire to out-ugly each other?

As long as you're not putting out more than 30 psi boost it should work OK. The vacuum portion isn't gonna do you any good as diesels don't produce any. The bigger the sweep range of the scale, the easier it is to see the difference between say, 16 psi and 17.5 psi and your gauge looks like it...

Never seen a military rotary snow plow. They did try a small jet engine mounted in the bed of a pick-up to try to blow snow and ice out of the ground tracks of aircraft hanger doors. Here's CSX's spin-off on the idea. In addition to the snow and ice, can you imagine the rocks and debris this...

Just went to the ISSPRO site; went to pyrometers, then to installation, selected R605. The wiring diagram shows two leads (positive and negative) from the thermocouple to the gauge and no other wires... and no 12vdc feed. www.isspro.com/installation/IS119revC.pdf Might need 12 volts for a...

Never seen an EGT gauge that has a dc voltage requirement. The thermocouple supplies the voltage to operate the EGT gauge on all the equipment we have. The only thing the electrical system voltage needs to drive is the gauge illumination. If that's your situation, then just swap out the bulb...

I asked our motor pool guys and their procedure is this; On a warm day (so that the cover os as pliable and "large" as it's gonna get) position the cover on the truck and get it as centered as possible. Thread the "o-ring" cord through the eyelets and leave a "little slack" between each eyelet...

Here's the proper way when you get to tying off at the rope hooks. Hope this helps.

NDT, it's not a near instantaneous change from workable to hard like Bondo. It's just not good to open a gallon of CARC to do spot painting or touch-ups. (They put out a kit with a throw-away aerosol "rattle-can" for that). I'm looking into RAPCO's CARC substitute myself for my own stuff since I...

You're right, Chuck. I just pulled info on the CARC we have on hand in our paint locker. There have been several versions of both the two-part and the one-part CARC. Adding to the confusion are different interpretations of terms like waterborne vs. water dispersible. Like I said; this is just...

Water dispersible CARC is one part. The moisture in the air acts as the catalyst. Two part CARC requires a mix-and-spray part B catalyst and isn't water dispersible. One part is product # F93H503, "MIL-DTL-64159. CARC, Tan 686A, 33446". Two part component "A" is product # F93H1...

That nut looks like a pretty simple project for a machinist to turn out. And you're right; the nuts could be made to accept any size whip-- just dependant on what size hole you bored in them.

My FS-595b Color Fan Deck only shows a couple of colors darker than the 34079; then you start drifting into greys. Take a look at 34064 or 34083. Go to www.colorserver.net Lots of good info there including a search colors features and a copy of the FS-595b.

Looks like an "American Growler" with a slightly different front end configuration. Here's some more pictures.

I see several lower hoses in my TM9-2320-272-24P-1. The manual lists both NSN and part numbers. If you think it will give you the info you need, PM me an address and I'll get you a copy of the manual headed your way.

Top notch work Rory. My hat's off to you.

Subtle differences throughout the family like filter location, turbo or not and things like improved cylinder wall squirters. Here's a pretty good read on all things Multifuel though it is an older pub.

The bad ones are the LDS427s. Don't even waste your time with one of them. We've found that the 465s are pretty bullet-proof as long as their needs are met-- regular maint., fresh air, clean fuel and clean oil. For the most part, the -A, -B, -C, and -Ds just have little design improvements...

Road breather- a little bit of drool there is normal although, if you're leaving puddles, you might have blow-by from worn rings. If anything, put a length of hose on the end to get the drip down past the frame rails. Turbo seal leaks are bad news. If in doubt; pull the flex hose from the...

Not sure either. One possibility is that with close tolerances they may have figured that a "Mechanics" type u-joint would be easier and faster to change out than one you had to thread the ends of the crosses into then bring in the caps with needles and hope that nothing dropped out while...

All the baby HEMTT's drive line bolts are fine-thread grade 8s with deformed thread locknuts against flat washers... no lock washers. Most of us, me included, tend to re-use but I've yet to find any fastener mfr that recommends re-using the deformed thread locknuts. They're a one-time deal--...
