    Need a preview of it so the he knows if it has any issues. Will they allow the tank to be started in the lot and moved to make sure it works ahead of time. Plus, need help with load out and a good trucking company to move it...

    Darn...stuck my forklift!

    Those all-terrain forklifts are nice but I've seen several of them get stuck very easy due to high centering. You'll enjoy you gun mover.

    Right and wrong way to start a deuce

    Chuck, To answer your question about the pump I have to say I do not know. The engine is a Hercules (not that it matters) and was rebuilt in 1993. I do know from an unfortunate experience that it will dump 5 gallons of oil on the floor in about 15 seconds or so through an incorrect oil...

    Right and wrong way to start a deuce

    15 - 20 seconds for full engine pressurization???? Mine is popping up at around 5 - 8 seconds depending on outside temps with stock filters. I would be concerned if mine took that long to pressurize.

    Winter driving means slow down

    Common sense dictates this to be true. I agree with your post completely. Thats why I put in my post about not regarding safety but just mechanically if it would handle it. There is no way in **** that if I have to be in 6x6 to go anywhere in my deuce am I going to drive it anywhere close to...

    Winter driving means slow down

    You just raised a good point Chuck and I now have a question related to the end of your post. What is the max speed you can drive a deuce with the front end locked in? Not max safe speed but max mechanical speed. I'm assuming that since the front end is spinning all the time anyway there is...

    Burning B20 in my M1009

    What I've seen happen when running older vehicles on B20 or any bio-diesel is that it will clean out the inside of your tank/lines so carrying spare filters is a must. Just ask Wreckerman what happens when you clean the inside of your tank out.

    Series & Parallel Hook Up

    Thats the exciting part of electrical work. Best one I did is I welded my boxend wrench to the turret bussel when installing 6 batteries in a M60A3. Oops.

    Winter driving means slow down

    Because there are tree huggers and "gansters" all over the states. They just haven't figured out that have a lowered car up in the snow states is nothing but a snow plow waiting to head to the ditch. On the flip side a lot of people up here with 4x4's think that because they have 4WD they are...
