    M939A1 NHC Turbo

    Now I was told by my injection pump man that had his own shop and worked on the Cummins in the military stock 250 rail pressure not to go over 200 psi. It will do nothing for performance and just put more stress on valve train / cam shaft. Yes on bringing rail up to 200 max and do not go silly...

    Tire / wheel standing up and tire soap packed between bead and wheel is what I had done before. Or for the Brave Heart the starting fluid trick.

    Engine quits suddenly -M37

    I do not know if that is the OP's problem but I add a small sheet of asbestos to my metal shield. Got it off an old house that had the asbestos shingles for siding. Been keeping it around for when I use the fire wrench to protect something I do not want to burn. Just cut off a piece and bolted...

    What have you done WITH your FMTV ( trips, Rescues etc) NOT: fixes, updates etc

    Look at the left rear rear tire see the mud spinning off the tire and the lugs on that tire are clear. Yea lockers might have helped but I am not putting any more money into this truck.

    Who are you hurting by limiting classifieds?

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    NY Tom got a pm from the op and you guessed it just needed to get the system fully primed. That is much better than having to remove the head to check assembly.

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    Yes If the plunger guide was put in backwards it will throw off timing / correct stroke big time. I will look for the thread on the same thing that happened or get you pics of the correct way it should look when assembled. OK could not find the thread but hope this helps. With the Head out...

    68 years new... Hello all from the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania.

    Are you talking about the two straps that hook into the windshield brackets or the two footman loops on the back soft top frame work. I got the straps when I got my new canvas top made from New Life Canvas.

    a strange noise coming from an NHC250 water pump

    Wonder if they switched when the 939 series came out. All mine were 809 series mid 70's.
