Don't forget to replace all of the fuel with fresh gas as this crap we buy today has a short shelf life. You can almost us it to put out fires after sitting a year......

Don't forget to check the screen in the fuel inlet to the carburetor. If you are missing the other two filters, there is a good chance that the little screen is clogged with debris as it wouldn't take much. Here is a link to some good information about the fuel systems filters...

When the engine is under load it takes a hotter spark, (read more voltage out of the coil) to fire the plugs. Remember too that the coil is firing BOTH spark plugs at the same time, the one on the compression stroke is called the 'event spark', the other cyl is the 'waste spark', but they both...

Thanks Snowtrack nome, forgot to add the choke flap check. Point gap is important, not only does the contact surface of the points affect the amount of spark the coil throws out on the secondary side, but the gap has a big effect on the timing as well. When you change the point gap, you also...

Trying to diagnose problems on the internet is like doing it on the telephone, you can only throw out ideas of things to check. There are 3 things needed for combustion, spark (at the right time and a fat spark to ignite the A/F mix), fuel (fresh fuel in the proper amount), and compression...

Remember the acronym, K-I-S-S (keep it simple stupid), not to insult you, just reminding you to check all the easy stuff first as that is where you will usually find the problem. Remember too that anything that electricity runs through needs clean and tight connections. Good luck

You might check the spark plugs and check for fouling of the spark plugs especially on the driver's side. You should check the spark plug wires, as well as the cap for cracks and carbon tracks. With the wires out of the cap you can hook up a jumper wire between the two contacts of the cap and...

One of the many problems with that rot gut ethanol (gasohol) fuel we are forced to buy is that it has a very limited shelf life. Starts causing problems at 6 months old, and anything over a year old you could probably put out fires with the stuff. That and the stuff eats up all rubber fuel...

Be sure to take a half dozen or so heavy duty ratcheting cinch down straps. You may not need all of them, but you probably will find a use for them. Good luck, and PLEASE post photos for us!

I hope this link works, so here http://www.homedepot.com/p/Ohio-Steel-2-000-lb-Capacity-Set-Arched-Steel-Loading-Ramps-1084/202324400 I bought this ramp for my F250 pickup and LOVE IT! I welded on some reinforcements on the tabs on the ends as they were starting to bend when I backed my mule...

Hi Jeeptj1 PLEASE take photos of your big move. You are buying a mule with a VERY RARE accessory, and all of us are interested. BTW, I can tell you how NOT to move your mule. My first mule was an A5 and I thought I would use my 95 Ford Ranger. Well it fit, (sort of) in the back with the...

Great photos, thanks for posting them. I am currently in Tonopah Nevada right now and having bounced over several miles of off road trails yesterday in my mule, I can only imagine what that would have felt like with your temporary wooden seat..... It would be brutal. looks like you are...

Deleted, duplicate post.

Sorry the deal didn't work out. I would feel bad if the seller had no clue of the value of what he had, but your guy is asking at least $10 grand too much for his mule with the 106. Better to walk away and not get frustrated by trying to work out a fair deal with that guy. Some of the items I...

While I myself would love nothing more that having a 106 mounted on my mule, my logical side tells me what am I going to do with it. It weighs over 500 lbs, and is longer than the mule, and just about kills any other use for the mule other than running it in parades. Having said that, I see...

From what I am hearing from you, the fuel system is probably to blame. If you can disconnect the fuel line that screws into the carburetor, and hook up a fuel hose to catch the output of the fuel pump in a can, you can crank the engine to verify that the carburetor is getting a steady stream of...

The 3 things you need for combustion is spark (at the right time), fuel (in the right amount), and compression. If you have a nice fat spark, and the timing is correct, you might get a change of spark plugs. Since you only need two, it shouldn't break the bank. The next thing is to do a...

Neil, are you aware of Whiteworks? They have every TM you could ever need about Mules. See http://www.whiteworks.us/TheMule/manuals/TM_9-2320-213- 34.pdf start about page 35 for your drop down gear issues, and READ EVERYTHING SEVERAL TIMES so you don't mess anything up or miss anything...

Hi Neil, I don't know if you resolved your issue or not, but here is a link to a 4 wheel steer installation that should give you some ideas on what to look for. http://g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=148&t=136533 there is a home page if you look at the top for many other topics as well. Do you...

Hi, I belong to a railroad museum and have several of these pumps I bought years ago, and we hope to get one running for our fire patrol speeder. Is there a TM for the operation of the P-250 pump? Thanks, John
