    Blown multifuel motors

    I'm thinking 'turning up the fuel' or the spin-on filters or the pre lube systems.

    Blown multifuel motors

    I more or less was interested in a count of blown motors over this year, it seems two motors just blew in as many days here on the forum posts......and a couple last month. But if modified motors blew at significantly larger or smaller number some correlation might be arrived at, who knows.....

    Blown multifuel motors

    With the recent number of multifuels that have cut loose lately, I thought those who experianced a grenaded engine could post when and the extent and the theory of what might have been the culprit. So if you could list the type/manufacturer of motor. What aparently blew. The date (aprox). How...

    55Mph Detonation. . .

    Unless the spin-on's reduced the flow, it's doubtfull, but that would be reflected in oil presure at the gauge. Oil volume and pressure are two different things here though. but theres been a rash of explodeing multifuels in the last couple months.

    Howdr from Dallas,Texas

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers. It looks like your progressing right along. Get rid of the surface rust spots and the looks will come right along too. It's amazing how just that brings a Deuce back and gets you jazzed on getting it all togather. I give you two or three month and I'm sure the before...

    Rules Concerning Posts About Guns

And I'll tell you this..... man some of those sites are anarchy..... with the places frequented by...

    Two Freeze Plug Block Heaters?

    I was thinking in terms of a block heater and one in the lower radiator hose, the reason being, the circulation factor. I understand the cold verses hot fluid causes a circulation, however the next post states that a circulating system is no good due to the temp required for the thermostat to be...

    What is this?

    Capt.Marion is right, in the coldest weather around here 20 degrees it will start easily enough with the manifold heater. Granted He's in the South along with myself, but I don't like either as I suspect He does not as well.

    bobbed deuce

    Way better the way you did it......heat-torch/frame-cutting = bad.... not good for the frame to heat and torch. The verry rear of frame's not so bad, but usually a torch should be avoided directly on the frame-rails anywhere between the bumpers.

    bobbed deuce

    I'd plan well ahead if you intend to Bob, before you start yanking stuff off and cutting. The length of the driveshaft is typically going to determine the length/ placement of your rear springs/mounts for starters, however, it can be longer or shorter by shortening the driveshaft or also...

    deuce exhaust sound...HELP!

    I'm leaning twards G-Force Wonder if a rocker lost adj. or a bent pushrod? At idle, you pull out the dash cable to hit the sweet spot and set it there for idle, "vibration bad" and will destroy things, the TM actually addresses this very thing.

    International Title Service. Any problems?

    I think thats why its SO important to follow through with ALL the paperwork and emails or phone calls and GET a title......boy what a headache without. The way things are going nationally, I think it won't be too long before they (states) stop accepting this type of titleing of vehicles. To...

    Deuce Jackshaft

    Well guys, I was heeding Speddmon's advise actually. I'm getting to be not so agile as I once was, 58, and figured it a good call to go ahead and pull the seat and tunnel to ALSO have a look at the stuff in close proximity and give attention to whatever might need attention. I havn't got a...
