    M35a2 block heater

    I used to plug in over night but had one short out and burn the barn and truck down... That really puts a crimp in livestock feeding ;)

    M35a2 block heater

    Convenience can be free. He doesn't have to sell a heater for 100% above MSRP. This is a forum, the purpose being to help each other out. If you wanted a block heater you could post a thread and I bet a dozen members will offer the part number for any heater you want...at absolutely no cost for...

    M35a2 block heater

    Tm: your own measurements show heat going to the radiator. My measurements show heat going to the radiator. When you put a heater into the coolant system it will heat to a peak temp for that wattage and then level off... I am using that feature to measure radiator loss by occluding the bottom...

    M35a2 block heater

    Well for what it is worth you would be doing well to get a freeze plug heater and put it in the block. The farther back the better. I am doing some measurements on the heater in the water pump and trying to get an accurate measurement on the heat lost at the radiator and so far it has been...

    M35a2 block heater

    I too wish had posted that earlier and saved you the trouble. Didn't ocure to me until you mentioned that you were going to move the heater line. You may not have the clearance behind the upper plug for the heater, My understanding is that you need about 3 inches, my truck does not have that...

    M35a2 block heater

    This triggered my curiosity so I went and fired my truck up and let her come up to temp for 20 minutes. I took a IR reading at my defroster and the temp read 168 F (ambient temp is 52 F.) I then shut down and moved the intake for the personnel heater to the upper port above the water pump and...

    Anyone use a Deuce for a hauling business?

    On a side note: It is interesting that some of the same people who would blow a gasket if anybody mentioned moving a deuce without perfectly working brakes are now the ones advocating overloading one.

    Anyone use a Deuce for a hauling business?

    Very good points above. Also check your local EPA laws. Around here if you track dirt/mud off of a job site and back onto the street you are responsible for the costs of cleanup.... Also water meters are often buried under stuff and when you run those over it destroys them and that is also out...

    M35a2 block heater

    My oil cooler has two more drain plugs on the very bottom. Mine have thread locker on them and I have been unable to remove them, but I imagine that one of them is coolant. I don't know why they would put two oil drains side by side.

    M275 Deuce tractor on C.L.

    Ohio seems to be the place for mil vehicles right now. Guy on Cincinnati CL has a 5 ton wrecker, some dump trucks, Deuces, and "box trucks" which I am guessing he means m109s.

    Anyone use a Deuce for a hauling business?

    As long as he stays under 26K he will not need a CDL. Depending on what he is hauling that may be very hard to do. If he is hauling out of a quarry I can say from experience that if you tell the loader operator not to put more the x amount of weight on you they are usually pretty good, but will...

    SF-97 in KY

    I can't get mine into the garage here for the inspection so they told me to have the sheriff come out or take it to another county. We have found out how different county to county has proven to be, but maybe you can go to another county as well. Also the sheriff didn't need the title, just a...

    SF-97 in KY

    You should have gotten a title for the truck from the state of Florida. Kentucky will not accept a SF-97. The sheriff dept came out to check my trucks vins and charged me 30.00 to do both of them. There will be a penalty for not transferring the title within 15 days of purchase, but I don't...
