    M35A2 "Big Iron 1-7" (my first Duce)

    Well... It's been 2 years... What's Big Iron 1-7 been up to in the mean time? oh, ya know... Big Iron stuff!! We responded to: Hurricane Laura, TS Beta, Hurricane Delta, the Lake Jackson water supply crisis, and Winter Storm Uri. It's been a very quiet 2021, but I did get some heavy...

    The truck is down here in Texas now, but if you're good with setting timing, come on down!! At this point, I think that it has to have skipped a tooth on the timing chain... I'm really tempted to throw a 6.2 in it at this point!!

    Stryker Horn

    Longshot... does anyone have the part number for the Stryker horn? I know they are civilian off the shelf units (you can see the chrome if the CARC flakes off!) but along the way, I misplaced the part number...

    I ran a continuity test. And they are new wires (About a year old. Have sat most of that year.)

    I've checked the wires... I have not checked the timing for a broken tooth, but things did improve when we retarded the timing a bit

    I will! I didnt, because it's not a CUCV, and I didn't want to get in trouble. But, I'm at a loss. It bogs down and dies at speed. Idle? Purrs like a kitten. Not a fuel issue, not a spark issue. 3 days in, and I, and my mechanic buddy's are out of ideas... I've replumbed the fuel to come out...

    Making my M35A2 submersible

    Look up the Tactical Repair Channel on Youtube, and search for Central Vent System video. There is a 3/8" fitting on the bellhousing that gets no more than 2-3PSI for positive pressure ventilation. (I've heard that an M35A2 air shift lever will do the trick, if you put in a regulator.)
