    Fuel not getting past Hydraulic Head

    Well your not going to get fuel at the injectors without the engine running or at least spinning over. Also you do not need to bleed the Deuce injectors. You do need the in tank pump working to bleed all fuel filters after filter change at the bleed between the secondary and final. Did you...

    Replacement two-piece rim nuts?

    Not dumb what ever you think is best. Yep cleaning them up is a good thing before install. Here is the response from Meritor to me post #79 Wheel Lug Nuts & Studs and Anti-Seize | Page 4 | SteelSoldiers

    Replacement two-piece rim nuts?

    Believe you are correct about the TM Frank plus no wheel manufacture ever said to use anti-seize only light oil. To each his own but I looked on my can of anti-seize and it no longer says for wheel studs. Just my .02 but light oil and the threads under the nuts seem better shape than the ones...

    M1083A1 - non runner 50 miles from St Augustine

    Yea mine were to much trouble to play with so I cut them down here at home. Also my truck did not have any diaphragm problems when I brought it home. Here he is picking up a un known truck so it might be better to have the cut ones on hand. He can play with it when he gets it home as there are...

    Injection pump head m35a2

    Most all of the time all we worry about is the red scribe mark and the head pointer being on mark then remove. I say most because when the head is installed correctly when we go to remove it ever again we line up the head red scribe and pointer and pull head. Now there has been motors with head...

    MEP831A won’t turn off only when disconnecting battery

    Kloppk has helped me with my problems as I know nothing about mine. Maybe I am wrong but your last pictures you have the black throttle knob in the off position. I believe that should be in the run / start position and with motor no load running then you measure the gap?

    M1083A1 - non runner 50 miles from St Augustine

    Thanks for the thought Wes and I will catch up with you when your back is turned. WassawBound I am running antique tags and I would not want to risk any problems on the road. Plus there is somethings that do need to be done and checked before the truck could even be flat towed. Myself best thing...

    Fuel not getting past Hydraulic Head

    Yes leave the center cap alone for now. Post #2 is the thingy ( delivery valve ) we can check for a no start without removing the Head. Please do not loose the spring. Might start there first then you might have to get into removing the Head and check timing button. deuce wont start. | SteelSoldiers

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2021 - July VOTE HERE!

    Why would someone yell election fraud if your vote was cast when the poll was open. Now if someone was to reopen a poll and cast a vote and it changed a tie well yea. Just because I figured out who opened a closed poll and changed the tie last time does not make me the bad guy. Still could have...

    Maybe we should reopen this poll and see if one of the 22 other truck voters wants to change there vote to tie it up again? Since we can change the rules when ever. Faceoff

    M101a2 wheel bearings question

    Wonder since most roads are crowned and driving in the right lane the passenger side might get a little hotter. That and if you loaded the passenger side of the trailer heaver plus crown might heat up that side?

    She won't start

    Bottom petcocks are for water draining. The system air bleed screw is the one between the secondary and final fuel filter up on the block by firewall. Yes we do it after filter change.
