It might be a couple of weeks, it depends on how the deal works out around the holidays. Definitely would be picked up by no later than the end of Jan.

Staging area for M936A2 near Ft Jackson
I won a M936A2 and might need someone to hold onto it for me for a week or so while I arrange shipping if I get it. It's a non runner so it would need a tow.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Joe
I'm going to be driving my Gasser M35 in the parade on Saturday so I'll try to keep an eye on fuel consumption for you and report back with my results.

It's inside a black box under the dash near the steering column. To make sure the relay is bad or not, take a jumper wire and ground the terminal with the blue wire to a good ground and the relay should clunk. If it does then the relay is not the problem.
Second note, don't buy a cheap Ford...
I have the same problem on my 53 gasser deuce. My only problem with Muratic Acid is finding an environmentally friendly way to dispose of it after it's been contaminated with fuel residue. Any suggestions? (BTW, the radiator shop near me wanted $175 to clean the tank)

Yes, that would be a 10 Ton
It always amazes me how big those things are... and you have no idea until you are in front of one in person no matter how many pics you see of them.

If it doesn't 'appear' to be hooked up, no... but if you get caught with it feeding the engine and it has red fuel in it, you're in deep caca...

To check the king pins, jack up the suspect wheel, place a 2x4 under it for leverage and lift up. If the tire/wheel assembly moves, either the wheel bearings are loose or the king pins are worn out. If there is movement, have a helper watch the steering knuckle while you lift the wheel again to...
I'll second that, you don't have to prove anything on the side of the road... the longer you argue, the longer it takes and they get paid the same either way. Press hard, 5 copies.

Download the military technical manuals for it on this site in the 'Resources' tab because they are MUCH more detailed than the shadetree manuals could EVER hope to be, and as an added bonus they're completely free.
They are the 9-2320-289-## series of manuals.
-10 is the operator's manual

A man in Charlotte NC was fined $1000 by the state and $1000 by the feds for driving his 1981 Mercedes diesel on 100% vegetable oil.
In Colorado, they don't do a lot of checks (About 21000 were done last year) and they only caught 23 trucks using dyed fuel but other states are different...
What was the temperature difference between yesterday and today? The temp gauge tells the controller when to cycle the plugs and when not to. It doesn't happen every time you start it, but as long as they stop cycling after a few minutes at most, things are fine.

Red diesel can not be used in agriculture if the vehicle is operated on public roads. It can only be used in vehicles that do not leave private property.
State tax officers set up random checkpoints in rural areas to stop all diesel powered vehicles and dip their tanks to determine if they are...
It is normal for the GPR to continue to cycle the glow plugs for a few minutes after starting to prevent white smoke and smooth out the idle until the temp sensor detects some heat.
If you mean the GPR was constantly on after startup, that is bad. It won't hurt the starter or alternator, but it...
