    I guess pictures would help.

    Can anyone identify this spring base?

    Can anyone tell me what these bases are for? They have 1" -14 threads and no markings. It looks like a lot of antennas use the 6707 and 3900 bases which look like they have a larger thread. I modified 2 of the 4 I have for CB antenna use but would be nice to know what military antenna I could...

    Multifuel Deuce Injector Pump Lube

    I think the tm says to add 1 quart of motor oil per 25 gallons of gasoline. But also says to do this in a emergency and to drain the tank and fill with diesel as soon as possible. To the original question. I always add either stanadyne lubricity formula or ashless 2 cycle. I used to use new...

    Safe boost?

    6psi and 900 egt sounds right on. The engines are tuned so anyone can operate them like a chainsaw all day long. I have since installed an egt monitor along with my boost gauge. I have an alarm light that kicks on at 1150 degrees (can't miss it). My boost hits 16 sometimes. I have decided that...

    Hmmwv won't start

    Starting fluid and glow plugs are a big no no. Sounds like bad glow plugs to me.

    2k miles in a hmmwv? I would definitely do it if I had the time. If you can think of it...bring it. Keep us posted and lots of luck.

    Jolt when Shifting from stop

    Yikes, never drive on dry pavement in HL. Mine clunks from N to D and N to R sometimes. Not bad but kind of like it's taking up slack in he drivetrain. I'm not sure why but if I move the gear selector more slowly it smooths out considerably.

    Random items found in HMMWV

    My 998 was pretty clean. The only interesting thing I found was a .45 case with an Israeli defence forces headstamp dated 1989.

    Could the fan be making the noise?

    6.2 disel clatter / rattle.

    The making noise and then going back to normal is the part that has me miffed. How's your oil pressure? Has it's running pressure changed from when it didn't make the noise? As for the fan, search for trouble shooting procedures. Its pretty straight forward to test them. It did it with mine...

    Nice. Looks just like mine except for the addition of the expanded metal guards on the cow catcher.
