    Be careful of the motor oil in the gas burners. But...add 5 to a maximum of 8% diesel to completely kill the effects of the ethanol. Addresses most if not all of the vapor lock and returns the energy content of the gas. We run this mix in all our gas burners, including 2 strokes and...

    winch cable experts?

    I will snag some of the pictures for reference, hopefully tomorrow. The synthetic is lighter. easier to handle and has an ever decreasing strength. For example, full rated pulls can only be done once, then the derating starts. Just a little info, it is virtually impossible to inspect synthetic...

    winch cable experts?

    Lots of good info. The 2-1/2 uses 6x19FC, IPS, 1/2". The higher strand count that you mentioned is easier to bend but does NOT have the crush resistance of the 6x19. On a multilayer winch soft rope will crush in the lower lays and that is bad. A good replacement is 6x19IWRC, EIPS, 1/2", that...

    M35 (Not A1 or A2)

    Guys, A good friend of mine is looking to sell his deuce. It is an M35 w/w, the truck is complete, stored under cover, and has not been altered or abused. He has had it for roughly 30 years and is wanting to formally retire. Any thoughts on what value he could be looking for, or are the...

    Aftermarket Carb Question

    You do not have the fording air cleaner, yours is the open one, so no restriction there. The OEM carb is just fine, just rebuild it or have it rebuilt.

    Injector pump leak.

    A typical place for the HH to crack is between the line ports. Clean it real good, push the water caps up, dust it with baby powder and run it. See if the leak is not between the ports and not at the threaded connection.

    Can a Deuce to tow a Deuce on a trailer without a CDL ? Yes.

    FWIW, over 26,001 combined GCVWR is CDL land for commercial, makes no matter on the GVW's of the parts. Yes, a 1-ton at GVWR of 13,000 and a trailer at 13,001, (rated not loaded) is a Class A, CDL, IF commercial. States vary all over the board. Recovery...do not be so harsh, it is events like...

    Shear pin for winch , i wonder !!!

    Not getting into this on shear pins, the info here is good and should be heeded. But, the comment in post #1, yes the 10k OEM winch will drag an empty deuce with all 10 locked. DO not believe the sales ads that a 3/8" lined little commercial electric winch will do the same thing.....we got...

    BE CAREFUL, learning winch operations can be dangerous. Do not do this alone, and go slowly.
