    M916 Engine Oil and Filters

    That’s a good question. Since oil changes on these is like a $300 deal, I tend to stretch the intervals since the oil always looks amber on my lightly used 400’s. If you operate in dusty environments, keep with the lube order.

    My first multifuel?

    Manufacturer is Kaiser Jeep. M39A2 series. Could be 1965 to 1968. You need two oil filters. Can you start a thread on your M724 please?

    M916 Engine Oil and Filters

    Agree with Hammer, that lube order info is dated. I run Delo 400 SDE 15W-40. Takes like 2 buckets and 2 more gallons.

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    That ship sailed 2 years ago along with $3000 M1025A2s. GovLiquidation was a huge zero in getting the ridiculous sums that Richie is seeing.

    Failure rate for Cat 7155 shifters?

    If you run the 7155 it makes sense to have a spare shifter for each truck. One day soon the supply will be exhausted and then finding one if needed will suck.

    Assessing tire condition- NDT bias tires

    The 8 on the rear can be ho hum but your steer tires need to be exceptional. The military tires are special OZ rubber that can last decades, as opposed to the commercial tires uncle started using recently. Well not exactly recently, 20 years ago.

    Every time I think I have found/fabricated every last GMV nicknack you guys come up with something I didn’t know I needed.

    $350. That is an obscure item not in high demand.

    Shelter/van body mounting options

    That Deuce M109 shop van box is ridiculous heavy, at least 2 tons. The aluminum shelter is how to go. Lots of people (myself included) have 280s lying around for camper projects that never materialized.

    KY CDL announcement

    This is not unusual, Ky is following the USDOT laws. TXDOT told me the same thing 15 years ago, I have kept up my CDL ever since. Medical card, drug testing etc just to drive my old army trucks. I see it as a back up career, if everything else fails, I can drive a garbage truck tomorrow.

    CCW Front axle

    You need to find TM10-1423. Nothing special about the front brakes, they adjust with cams on top and eccentric studs on the bottom.

    Transmission Module won't light up, preventing normal engine start.

    Check all the connections between the display and the WTEC. Check breakers feeding the WTEC. Check connections plugged into WTEC. If everything checks out, send your WTEC for diagnostics to Transmissioninstruments.com. Yes the WTEC must be alive to allow engine cranking.

    That fuel hose and the little clips are the same as civilian 6.5, hose kits available from Leroy Diesel, S&S Diesel, others …

    Need Help Starting 2003 A1 M1078 - Addison, Texas

    Agree, this sounds like cable terminal ends, what can happen is corrosion occurs between the copper strands and the crimped on connector, leading to intermittent weird behavior. Get your voltmeter, starting at the batteries, work your way towards the pdp until you find voltage dropping off...

    Need Help Starting 2003 A1 M1078 - Addison, Texas

    What is going on in the relay box next to the battery box? Are the relays coming on? There is one relay for 12 volts and one for 24 volts.

    What year should I put on the SF97 request form?

    Its a 2001 year model. Go with that.

    M916 Alternator Trouble

    The transformer rectifier device is potted in, meaning the components are surrounded by solid potting material. It's not fixable. Disconnect the wires going to it before it catches fire.

    Do I have a transfer case problem?

    The automatic transmission “windmills” the internal components even in neutral. That’s why you are getting the grinding.

    LMTV Cargo Cover install questions

    Looking good. Valence can make those stupid long straps so you can replace the temporary orange ones. Suggest you start a different thread for the surging issue. Check belt tension. Check battery terminals. Check LBCD for bad connections.
