PAPPA D Try changing all three fuel filters, also pull the fuel pump in the fuel tank out and cleen the pickup screen. If that doese'nt cure it then you may have a kink in the line or a blockage. Try a filter job first and look for algae of slime in the tank. Let us know what happens
TM 9-2320-209-10/1 lists commercial avitation fuels (JET A and JET A1) as permissible fuels. FM 10-70 lists MIL-J-5624 (JET A) as kerosene-base. I would cut it with diesel and or used motor oil to offset any pump lube worries. Lucky you! I cut diesel with used motor oil to help with my fuel costs.
Trango. First take the 3 nuts holding the cover on the lift pump off. there will be a Buss fuse under the cover. If it's blown then the most common cause is trash in the pumps impeller. Pull the pump and using a small screwdriver try to turn the pump impeller. Sometimes you can free it up by...
If you have the solid cast iron 1 piece manafold, use the plug at the front of the engine. By #1 cylinder. It's facing the grill and a 3/8 ratchet takes out. If it's not stuck!
Pulling the front drive shaft by it's self with a air shift won't help a bit. Every body is still turning. If you go with the lockouts and a air shift you will see a big difference! My truck came with a sprag(thank god it's gone!) After switching to the air shift and the lockouts i can drive...
There is two kinds of slack. Slack in the steering weel and slack in the pitman arm shaft. If it's in the pitman arm shaft then you have to change the bearings" brass bushings" the gear oil usally leaks onto the pitman arm when the bushing wear out. If your truck came with a sprag T-CASE this...
DR, good job on the rust proofing! I should have had you take the heat gun with you. I guess we'll be spending some quaility time with the middle axle when you get back.
I keep it at 1800. Fuel cost too much to run it that fast! I like to keep milage in the double digits. It hums right along at 1800 without lugging even with 8 yards of wet sand in the bed.
6BY, Yea i've been down the VT-135-M road, with a 715 i had. Trust me the idiots is austin will throw it out without the inspection and weight ticket. After that you can run without the inspection. The problem i had with that regestration was too many rectrictions. If you are only going to use...
6by Before you go to the tax office, Go to a truck scale and have it weighed Austin won't title it with out a weight recipet. Then get it inspected, tell the saftey inspector you need the green form. Also needed by austin. They will ask you for the body style. TEXAS does not reconize "cargo...
Jreb i'm assuming you use your truck off road like me. If you plan on going through hub deep water you will fill them with water. The selectro's are NOT WATERTIGHT! A while ago someone posted a new style of lockouts that i'll probally try. The selectro's function well and seem to be quite...
PK, he isn't kidding. I've had a muffler for a couple of years now and his is much quieter than mine. So i'll swap to his style muffler. You can actually hear the fuel injector lines tink when the fuel goes though them.
Anything above idle and the fan noise takes over. At 50mph we were talking...
My guess is becuase the knuckle rides on the inner seal holding plate. And grease is used to prevent gualling. The older models had the ball and cup design, so mable fittings were there in place of the plugs. I just rebuilt mine about a month ago. I coated everything with boat trailer grease (my...
