I don't for the life of me understand why something wasn't designed into the dash of the deuce to allow better access to the wireing.
Given that these trucks have been in production for years one would think that over the years some sort of a dash mod would have been implemented somewhere...
I've installed twin fuel pressure gauges --- one pre primary fuel filter and one post primary fuel filter.
I figure by monitoring the pressure spread before and after the primary filter I'll be able to tell when I've got a filter starting to plug, jell, of ice up.
After a recent fuel...
Perhaps it's just me but I've always found the search function difficult.
I use it when I can but I'm guilty of asking questions.
I always try to repay the favor of people answering my (sometimes) silly questions by making it a point to share the histories of my projects and what I've...
RE: what r duece worth now (newbie)
This doesn't give a definitive answer to you question but it isn't what you pay for a vehicle, It's what you have to spend on it to use it.
Hummm ... Raindeer Dung.
That might be a good reason to keep Rudolph around for a little while longer.
If I have to bail him out of jail one more time he's history. He didn't get that red nose from eating sugar cookies
Never fear ... Old Santa will have the red rocket up and running by...

I considered installing a dual tank system for an 80/20 WMO-Diesel blend. I guess if it works for bio-diesel it would also work for WMO-Diesel blend.
Assuming it would work on WMO, A dual tank system would have it's limitations for short runs. On a January morning it takes...
I've always wondered if there is enough area (height wise) to somehow add an extension out over the top of the truck cab (hardtop) for a bed --- like standard slide-in pickup campers have.
RE: Re: Whistler turbo vs. Non-whistler turbo
I'm under the impression that the D turbo has better heat shields that protect the bearings/seals. The C is less forgiving to being shut down to quickly. Note: I'm not suggesting that the D turbo doesn't need to idle down/cool down period before...
Hey maxim ... Concerning the in-line filter ahead of the in-line pump ... what are your feelings about fuel jell ans/or icing problems in the filter? I assume you live in cold country where icing and jelling can be a problem. I considered installing an inline filter but was afraid to. Running...
This evening I decided to inspect the in-tank pump that has been producing low fuel delivery pressures.
I removed the pump fron the tank thinking that the shims in the bottom might have come loose. It was still all in one piece. I checked all the wires to make sure there wasn't a lose...
Years ago, instead of a buzzer trucks had a devise called a wig wag. It's an air activated valve that's mounted over the drivers windshield and causes a small arm to swing down to alert the driver then air pressure starts to fall. They are still availeble...
RE: Re: RE: LDS-465-1A Powered M35A2
Congratulations!
Yo --- One Mo!
The LDS is a BIG improvement.
I may be off base here but I think with the standard deuce air breather you're going to need a pyro to keep the exhaust gas temperatures within save range.
My deuce mounted LDS-1A has to be...
