Check out the body for rust, find out who owns it if you can and see what the story is and how much they want. I don't think it is worth much.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! This is a great site with a lot of good people and is an excellent resource for information. I visit BC on a regular basis for work - you live in a very beautiful Province. Good luck on your cmp project.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers. This is a great site with a good bunch of people.

Look in the TMs in the Resources section. The rubber cord is available at GMA Cover GMA - Protection Technologies 810-966-8916

If ether is directly injected into the IP, there is no lubrication. Diesel fuel acts as a lubricant for the IP. If starting fluid (ether) is sprayed into the intake, there is no problem.

Most likely a faulty speedometer head.

Don't keep cranking on the starter when it won't start - all it will do is wear out your starter. Also, ether is for cold weather. Ether injection is not good for the IP and should only be used in very cold weather. Deuces are notoriously easy to start when everything is OK. Check and make...

I believe the correct name is 'tubing wrench'. And I agree. Using a tubing wrench will almost always break the fitting free with zero damage.

I agree. I would use SO cable from the GenSet to the transfer switch on the house. Make sure you have a fourth conductor in the SO cable to run the trailer/genset ground to the house. You don't want to ground the trailer separately.

My 1969 Kaiser Jeep has three grease fittings on the pintle. Makes it easy to move around. I think if I had a Deuce or other truck that didn't have grease fittings I'd swap out the pintle for one that did.

I enjoyed talking with you as well. I love GenSets and could talk about them all day. I hope your trip back to Ohio went well. See you next year.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! I'm glad you had a good time at the GA Rally. I think everyone had a great time.

I left the rally sometime around 10:00 PM Saturday night and drove the Deuce home in the dark. The 130 mile trip back was uneventful, but my luck changed Sunday evening at dusk. While unloading 5 deuce wheels and mounted tires I picked up at the rally, I had an accident. I was using my John...

Clinto, you did an excellent job capturing this event!

I'll be leaving sometime around noon Thursday. I'm loading firewood in the Deuce tonight. I decided not to bring the M105A2, mainly because I am too lazy to bring it down from the top of the mountain. Except for the firewood, I'm mostly packed. Looking forward to a great rally!

Look in the TM. There are very good troubleshooting guides.

Nice looking truck! Have fun.

My MEP-003A came with two Optima batteries which were trashed. I replaced them with two Exide Orbital batteries. There were normally expensive, but I bought them directly from Exide at a deep discount, bypassing the dealers.

I've also had good luck talking with the GL site reps who will often go look at the equipment for you and give you a verbal observation. If they are not busy they will sometimes do this, although I don't believe they are supposed to. Most are decent people.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! There are a lot of good people here and a boatload of good information. If you bid on a Deuce on GL I highly recommend checking it out in person prior to bidding or have someone else check it out. The photos are difficult to tell the condition. You can get very...
