The genset has a preheat that you have to manually hold on for about 10 seconds before starting a cold engine, also after it first starts to run you have to keep the starter engaged until she builds oil pressure or the low oil switch will shut it down.
Heres a great site for more info on these...
RE: Re: RE: Another Sprag Newbie Question

I know on the 5 ton you have to go from reverse to first for it to engage the sprag but NOT on the deuce., The only thing with the sprag on the deuce is if it won't disengege you put it in reverse and back up a few feet to help it unlock.

B1s don't have fully syncro'd trannys, both the early m37 ( 51-54) and the later B1's with the NP420 tranny are syncro'ed in 3rd and 4th gear only. Now CDN m-37s have a fully syncro'd tranny
B1's don't have thinner metal then the early 37's, Like most vehicles after 1957, detroit went to a different type ( ie: cheaper) sheetmetal that tended to rust easier.
Very Nice Rig
My StateFarm insurance agent said I'm covered on a new ( purchased) vehicle for 24hrs., What Ins company do you have that gives you 30days??
RE: Here is one way
I know VPW's sold a performance/econo cam for the 230. As mentioned milling the head would help performance, there is also a electronic ign system out there that will fit in the mil dist or if its been converted to a civie dist you can convert that to a electronic setup from...
Yeah Bryan
Like the first 200+ - ,M-37s off the production line had 6v gauges with resisters on them., I'm thinking ( no proof of course) that there was left over stock at the factory that got used up first. As mentioned I did not have a problem either but there is a TB on the matter., just...
As mentioned The idler gear on the pto is always turning when your rolling so clicking would not be intermitent. There is a spool brake ( not the little band brake on the worm shaft ) on the LU-4 that is suppose to catch/lock the spool if it free spins to fast ( little square piece mounted...

I got the photos for Kenny
The only mishap we had was a couple of ticks on my son AND me explaining to him That I was only "Pretending" to act like a sreaming idiot when that damn mouse jumped on my arm when I was fishing around under the pass seat looking for loose...
My 37 had the 100amp system that was burned to a crisp, so I ripped it all out and bought a nos harness and the alt and installed it as described above. I'm sure all you need to do is disconnect the old charging system ( gen/reg ) and do what I did or go buy the conversion kit and tie into the...
Mark
When I installed my 60amp alt on my 37 ( along with a nos frt harness) all I did was run the pos cable on the alt to the battery side of the starter relay, then ran the ground from the alt to the block. I ran the small (12ga) exciter line off the alt to the on/off switch on the dash, that...
