    M923 No Mess oil and filter change.

    WR, The adapter kit I have in the classified is complete with correct bolt and Fleetgard spin on filter. As for a drain pan to catch the oil pan deluge, a small kiddie pool is not a bad idea. JC

    Trip to Coleman's Surplus in Millersburg, PA. Nov. 23, 2013

    Buy that truck before it disappears. Temp gauge problems are easy to fix. Everything on that truck is easy to fix. I paid 3200 last year for a '73 that the brake were out. That truck will last forever if you give it a new home. Have fun JC

    PCB and pencil questions

    Frog, Try Avroe flat black, typical flat. Rapco 383 green works for the green or the flat camo colors for hunters at HomeDepot work well, the brown is real close. Experiment with distance when spraying. Sometime a light overspray work. JC

    PCB and pencil questions

    Frogman, Try red Scotch-Brite and a little carb cleaner. Most of these trucks have several coats of paint and I have worked the area with the Scotch-Brite pad until the grease marker is gone, still leaving plenty of paint to work with. Flat black it the trickiest, but easiest to touch up with a...

    Oil all over motor, where should I start looking?

    Start fresh, fill all fluids and start it up and monitor the temp. Check for cracked oil feed line or head gasket. You might have two separate issues. Let us know what you find. JC

    M923A2 Slow air leak from far rear wheels

    The wheel tie bolts are only half the work, separating the bead from the wheel halves is a task. The bead lock works well. Take Wreckman's advice and take it to a big tire shop. I did 4 wheels off an M35A3 myself. The 2 off my 5 ton went to the tire shop. Well worth the expense. Erik's had...

    GL- SF 97 - Arizona DMV Title

    AZ titles from GL make it real easy in KY, the inspection is a VIN number verification only. Now a "rebuilt" title will result in a full vehicle inspection; everything gets checked.
