    M8 Greyhound brake help

    Here's some pics of the brake stuff. The first 4 are of the stuff in the M8 in question. The next two are of the MC and hydrovac of an un touched M20 showing the two line MC. The hydrovac on the M8 is larger in diameter than the one on the M20. The last few are of the "touched up" M8 we are...

    Bad trip.

    Maybe a front crank seal or the oil lines for the front of the fuel pump. Or a head gasket.

    M8 Greyhound brake help

    The M/C on it is the exact same one as a deuce...don't know if it the stock one, I asked Craig to check it against the unmolested M20 in the back 40. IIRC, it is a1 3/4 diameter unit. It has been bled with a pressure bleeder, multiple times and the system split in half and bled. The springs are...

    M8 Greyhound brake help

    Thanks for all the input, keep it comming! I isolated the M/C and Hydraboost from the rest of the system and bled that half...had a hard pedal. I hooked up the rest of the system, bled it, and the pedal action is still the same. I did go through the hydraboost and it does work, no fluid...

    M8 Greyhound brake help

    Well, i'm stumped. I have read and been told that the braking system on the M8 and M20 vehicles are a biatch, but how bad could it really be :roll:, right? Well, I gotta say that they are the most difficult ones I have ever done and I have hit a wall with an issue that they have. Rebuilt the...

    Stuck injector

    I forget if the multi is direct injected, if it is, and you aren't gonna try and save it you can pop it out from the bottom by hitting it on the nozzle end. If not, spray some penetrant on it and just keep twisting like you are doing now. I'll bet that the seal wasn't put on the injector the...

    Pulsing vibration at 35mph+ in Deuce

    Check drive line phase and for loose flange bolts. Also check the shaft between the trans and t-case..those are always comming loose. Check to see if the drive shafts are bent and for too much slop in the slips. I had a harmonic vibration and It went away after I swapped from a sprag to an air...

    Oil Additives For Turbos?

    Oil additives...snake oil IMHO. Seen lots of engines apart with regular oil and additives. No difference inside. Oil manufacturers don't spend millions on R&D on their products for nuthin' 2cents

    Need to change hose connected to t-stat housing

    I have sets of hoses, top, lower, the ones behind the oil filters, the little ones on the water rail. $35.00 plus shipping. PM me if interested. You can loosen the upper radiator support and the upper hose comes out and goes back on easily.

    Operator's TM size large

    WOW, that's a mess of reading! Guess if you have to drive a techno blimp, the manual needs to tell you how to do it correctly.
