    Trying NOT to slay the Draggin'

    The engine runs great, climbs well, etc. I do have an overheating issue. Changed out the thermostat and now have the rad in a shop to clean it out and do some repairs. I do have some oil in water(but it's not bubbling like before the HG's) which I think is from having shaped my own gaskets for...

    Cold start Ether kit vs Intake heater

    I actually get better results w/ a hand held can. The kit in my truck hits the engine hard, much harder than if I'm using a can. Maybe I'm just good w/ a can ;) But I have heard that my engine might not be turning over fast enough to use the kit. Have also thought of moving the either injector...

    Trying NOT to slay the Draggin'

    Thanks Gimpy, knowing that I could twist them helped loads. I didn't want to risk that having never looked at one out of the truck. Went to Waterloo but didn't find anything on Head Gaskets, am I missing something?

    Trying NOT to slay the Draggin'

    Now that I have the engine stripped down to take the heads off, a couple questions. When you pull the pushrod out "incorrectly", how do you set the lifter back where it belongs? :) And, Do you need to take the injectors out? If so, how do you make them come loose? Thanks all

    How stuck have you gotten your Deuce PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN

    Didn't do it, . . . but I watched it happen ;)

    Changing the thermostat questions

    No. Only the middle part should move.

    Survival 109 build

    I've been in that rig. Met them at the first Dirtbag Gathering we went to. Don't have a clue how to find them. He sure did some nice work though.

    M109 She Beast is down - Fuel System Failure

    Cool, if Doghead wants to come out we'll be happy to put him up. He could even stay in one of the builds. :)

    M109 She Beast is down - Fuel System Failure

    Hey sorry this got left hanging. It was sucking air right before the booster pump, bad hose. She was also hard to start a lot. That's been replaced and loads of other little stuff, she even has new shocks. :) Haven't been thinking much about her, w/ my trailer build.

    M101A2 Brake Lockout Hole

    I have one w/ that issue. I just want to lock it out untill I get a chance to redo the whole brack system. The MC was empty when we got it, and right now it only gets used to do dump runs.

    That's a secret ;) , but there may be a small half-shelter camp under Rayzer's awning at the Fla Rally.

    2014 SoCal Fall Rally

    Got it on the calander. I'll be up that way already. If all goes well I'll hit it on my way back to our base camp.

    the XM971 "command camper" build

    This is new to me, how are you going to hook up the plumbing (water, gas, drain) w/ it sliding out?

    Starting my M146 Build

    What's the non-pump line go to? I see that it also comes from the tank.

    Show us your Military Trailers

    Hate to say it but, that ladders on the wrong side. You'll never get in that way ;)

    My M146/future camper build.

    What he said. Have 4 on site and they all have had leaking roofs. Used that same coating and sealed. As far as temp drop, when I had the ceiling out of the one I've been redoing, you could put your hand on the underside of the roof . . . not hot at all. Sam Franks was shocked when he was here...
