    PTO Identification

    Easiest is just leave it without anything connected.

    Carburetor flooding...

    No. There is no fuel return line. You might be confusing the vent tubes.

    PTO Identification

    I have one just like it. It's civilian. Mil never used the cable pull control.

    M52 dump

    I told you wrong earlier, the temporary fuel supply needs to feed the primary filter behind the tire not the secondaries on the engine.

    M52 dump

    Yes it's very helpful that the electric lift pump works to prime the system after filter changes. Suggest you do the following if you are in the early stages of keep vs get rid of decision process. Get a 5 gallon can of diesel and a new electric pump and feed diesel directly into the edit...

    Unidentified 4 Pin Cable - marked 762 A thru D

    X-DCR is transducer and it's the useless sensor that usually sticks up out of the top of the fuel filter which sends fuel pressure to the diagnostic plug in device called the STE-ICE which is Simplified Test Equipment-Internal Combustion Engine.

    New Forum member and just purchased a 1078a1

    Welcome. Alabama to Wisconsin is quite a ways. I highly recommend having the truck hauled by a knowledgeable trucker. Do a careful financial analysis, you will arrive at the same conclusion. Too many things can go wrong leaving you on the side of the road.

    Found another part. Is it Halftrack DUKW or CCKW?

    Well it's a hydrovac brake booster, I want to say that is the model used on the GMCs. Problem with it is there are no fresh rebuild kits available for it. So most of the time people upgrade to newer types.

    Why is a Deuce and 1/2 called this ?

    No rudeness intended, sorry

    Why is a Deuce and 1/2 called this ?

    Has to carry 2 and a half tons and do this without breaking anything. Now do you understand?

    Is this 6.5 a lost cause?

    Actually a competent machine shop can sleeve the pitted cylinders and you go on with life. I would only do this to a GEP engine however. My 6.2 looked like this a long long time ago and I sleeved several holes and it has been fine ever since. Might be cheaper than finding another engine and...

    I’m new here! I don’t know what I’m doing.

    Welcome yeah looks like the previous owner got carried away with the train horns and flood lights. And questionable demands stenciled on the bumper given the 55 mph top speed. Army trucks are supposed to be inconspicuous at least in their natural habitat in the field.

    Welding on rockwell axles

    Those axles started life as flat plate that was formed into shapes and welded together. No issues with welding to cast material.

    MUTT engine prices?

    Yea kinda a dead item. Back in the 90’s when the Army was dumping the M151s, they would let the scrappers pull the engine before squashing the body flat as a flitter. So there is an abundance of engines here and there in warehouses for the demand that never came. Now 30 years has past and who...

    1953 Air Force M38A1

    EXCELLENT observation on the rear USMC crossmember! That explains everything. The main data plate shows procurement "US NAVY" because that is who buys stuff for the Marines! The main data plate is indeed correct. You have a USMC Jeep.

    fuel tank problems.

    I have a clean undamaged takeout. Shipping will be ugly. PM if interested.

    Recovered two M422A1's from GA

    Did they buy all Sam Werner’s stuff from Tracy City?

    Electrical Gremlis:

    Nice how TACOM tried to blame lack of PMCS for failures really due to the CRAP design Leece Neville charging system.

    Which CUCV is this truck?

    The registration number from the data sticker is 88B4273, the 88 is code for 1988, and that format registration number is USAF. The truck entered service in 1988, it’s a type B vehicle, and it’s the 4273th vehicle purchased by the USAF in 1988 more or less.

    Electrical Gremlis:

    Check voltage levels here there everywhere. Especially check the stupid LBCD under the spare tire. Volts in and out.
