    Looking for picture of temperature sender location

    Temp sender is beneath the oil filter canister, in the back corner of the block. I'll try and find a picture, I have one somewhere. And I'll check on the oil pressure sender.

    Recovering Sarge's M49C

    I would believe he is commenting on a lack thereof... Glad the recovery went well!

    M37 Driveability

    I bet the parts for that Taurus will cost 2 times as much, and you'll have to take it to the shop to get it fixed, too...

    M37 Driveability

    Well, you're in Long Island, so there has to be someone near you in NY, PN, or NJ that has to be one you can go take a test drive in. Just keep your eyes peeled; I'd advise subscribing to the Power Wagon Advertiser; its a pretty cool magazine, and their classified section always has something...

    M37 Driveability

    When nothing else will, the M37 will start, run, and get you where you need to. It is pretty quiet (compared to a Deuce), and the most comfortable ride out of most anything I've driven or ridden in. 45 is your top cruising speed, but if you are driving an MV you shouldn't be in a hurry anyways...

    1954 M37 Distributor help needed

    Can you read the numbers on the tag well enough to post them? All I could make out was that its an Auto-Lite distributor...

    Got stuck with commercial plates in ny, whats the weight of an 08?

    It's funny, because I tend to see a LOT more pickups, alot bigger than any CUCV, on the Taconic. And they're all flying past me on the left at 80 mph...

    M43 (M37) water pump leak. Odd....

    Doesn't seem to, based on pictures. Later I'll trek out to the barn and take a peak. Mine's a '62 block, I'd assume the head is the same. Would there be any changes in the markings on the top of the head? Sorry for the massive thread hijack, Irv, but I'm intrigued...

    Marines new ride - Growler

    And it's just a pretty modded M151A2... Hell, they should just use the M151 as it was, they are plenty easy to drive, and learn to drive if you can't drive stick. But, hey, its the US Gov't. Talking sense is like trying to catch a bucket of steam under the midnight sun...

    M43 (M37) water pump leak. Odd....

    My apologies, Carter, didn't mean to jump all over you about that. @ Sasquatch: That's pretty interesting, never woulda thought that there'd be a difference like that. Did that prompt any change in head gasket design? Or would it need to?

    M43 (M37) water pump leak. Odd....

    He did say that he gooped up his gasket with the Permatex gasket sealant to see if that helped, and it didn't seem to. I'd dry it off, fire it up and go out in front and watch it and see if you can see where the water originates from. The head gasket idea may be viable, the hoses too... Can...

    African CUCV smoke trouble

    A good run on the interstate may be good, to burn any residue out of the exhaust system. Especially if it seems to be running even and no lack of power.
