    M37/M43B1 engine weight

    The engine alone is around 600lbs pulling the whole powerpac is around 800lbs. Taking the whole powerpac out is easier then just trying to pull the engine.

    Diesel additive

    I like Stanadyne Jr ( not the performance formula). Early diesels ( thru 1995) were designed to run with the higher sulfer fuel which provided more lubricicity then todays ultra low sulfer fuels. I also like Diesel Kleen by Power Service which is also a great fuel stabilizer/conditioner but...

    Trailering a deuce

    "The firetruck was about 8,000 lbs. Verified on the scale" Well if his entire load grossed out at 43,000lbs then that firetruck weighs a heck of alot more then 8000lbs, just do the math yourself: tow vehicle,7500lbs, deuce 13,500lbs, trailer 7000lbs ( these are high #'s ) comes to 28,000lbs...

    Trailering a deuce

    RE: Re: RE: Trailering a deuce Lets see 12,000lb deuce, I bet the fire truck is easily 8,000lbs, the trailer 4000lbs and the tow vehicle around 7000lbs , so that 31,000lbs +/- GCWR being pulled by a one ton?? duelly WOW.
