Going through the TM trouble shooting chart can be a big help. One time I had my deuce sitting in the driveway idling just like normal, no missing, no surging, nothing out of the normal and it just died like I had pulled out the stop cable. I could hear the in tank pump running so I opened the...

Welcome from the Peoples Socialist Republic of Maryland. Maybe this would help...:-D http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?105141-Radar-deflecting-camo-nets

Thanks for the link. I bookmarked it and hope they come up this way at somepoint. Of course I keep hearing these rumors of some kind of MV rally I think in Ga. Maybe I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone. :-)

Great work. [thumbzup] ​Another excellent job.

Something don't sound correct. Did the kit you installed come with a new master cylinder and proportioning valve ?

Welcome from another Marylander. I think you have it right, get one of each and you have it covered. :)

The spec for the rocker covers is a lb/in not lb.ft so 30~60 lb/in isn't very much. :)

From the Continental Aviation and Engineering Corporation manual for the LDS-456-1A, 1968 Turocharger to exhaust manifold bolts: 23 to 27 lb/ft.

Congratulations on the new truck. I keep playing with the idea of getting a CUCV but just have to much on my plate already.

Also be sure to check the cables and connections for the magnetic relay and the starter soleniod.

Man I loved those planes, large and in charge. When I was growing up in Annapolis the Blue Angels flew them and I couldn't wait for graduation at the Naval Academy and the demonstration they would put on. Man those planes at tree top level then hitting afterburner and going near vertical would...

Two aircraft I would love to take a flight in is the UH-1 huey and the B-17. Maybe someday.

They seem to have a knack for the ugly. :roll:

Checkout TM5-6115-585-34, Chapter 7, Sec 7-3. It goes through the throttle cable and governor adjustment. Mine always starts out running a little fast but given 5~10 minutes to warm up, depending on the outside temp it settles back to where it was last time I ran it. I haven't moved the throttle...

If you do that. Be sure to double check the bore and the piston seal grove to make sure there isn't something like a burr or nick that cut the seal.

Sounds like the piston seal in the airshift solenoid is bad letting the air pass into the transfer case.They make a replacement kit that has a new piston, seals and boreliner. I would give Kublos a call and let them know about the problem. They may send you the kit gratis sense you just...

:ditto: That's what got me into the mv hobby. I am a mechanic at heart and just wanted something I could wrench on and didn't need a computer and hundreds of dollars in software to work on. I enjoy the shear act of diagnosing a problem and effecting a repair more than just riding around town in...

When I made a living as a heavy equipment mechanic for a large construction company back in the late 70's to early 80's all the Cat equipment, from the little D3/931 up to the d9's, 631/637 pans and everything in the middle used 10 weight motor oil for the hydraulics. Not sure what they use now...

:funny: Just like a radial engine. If it's not leaking it needs oil.

I also just print what I need and take out with me while doing the work. I don't have to think twice about them getting trashed because I just toss them and print new when needed.
