    Deuce "D" Turbo Piston Destruction

    The truck belongs to a museum where I volunteer. I just posted the pictures to show of the damage. It also shows that a deuce missing an entire piston still is reliable enough to get home, just have some black crap flowing out of the stack when doing it this way.

    Deuce "D" Turbo Piston Destruction

    Just gonna throw up a couple of pictures of a piston from a Deuce. The piston sleeve disentegrated and you can see the resultant damage done to the piston during the drive home. It also destroyed one of the valves.

    m113 woes

    RE: Re: RE: m113 woes Sounds like you have a connection that has gone bad. I would get a TM, find the wiring diagram and starting voltage checking back from the starter to the starter relay (assuming it has a relay/solenoid like some of the tanks I have worked on) and see where you are loosing...

    UPDATE on Event 3621

    I've had mine checked and had a revision needed. I sent my revision back in Friday afternoon. I was told by Brandi to expect all revisions to be posted by Tuesday. Since a revision has been required should be off of the time table of the 7 days for the original requirement. You only have a...

    UPDATE on Event 3621

    Don't know, all I know is last night it was all turned over to Brandi....... Gotta feel bad for Aaron though, I'm assuming he was new to the job and thrown into the fire/under the bus. Only hope he is getting proper training now and was not canned.

    UPDATE on Event 3621

    I've been working with Brandi and Merideth all day on mine. I had an issue to correct on my EUC, but other than that should be good to go. Those 2 ladies are great in my opinion of working with them today.

    Deuce fuel leak....WHERE IS IT?!

    Another thing to check for would be a pinhole leak in the injector line (not sure of internal pressure on a deuce). To check for this do not use your hand as high pressure liquid is not nice to skin (usually ends up as a hospital visit), use a piece of paper/cardboard with the engine running...

    RE: Re: RE: Re: Aaron No, I'm stilling waiting on them to acknowledge that they received it. Did a live chat yesterday with Merideth and was told by her that they have it, have sent it on to the EUC processor (in this case Aaron) and it should be posted soon. I was to check back on Monday if...

    what would cause this failure of a crank?

    Could just be metal fatigue. We had a farm tractor break a crankshaft in half during startup once. It was just a little 4 cylinder gas engine with 65 hp. Of course, Murphy's Law was in effect during the break......we had a hay barn catch fire and this was the tractor with the loader on it...
