Well, started the day by deciding to replace the radiator hoses on the deuce, since the hoses from the water manifolds were hard and leaking. Drain the coolant, the draincock screwed in, but no coolant..hmm. Tighten it up, find out the draincock has dirt packed in it. No biggie, used a scribe to...

Bjorn, when these engines were made and now, big differences. That's what all those SAE ratings are on the oil container. The additive packages added to the oils make the soot and other particulates be suspended in the oil and not drop out so they can be carried to the filter. When the multi was...

Superfuel, I was there last Sunday! That is a bitchen truck! I wanted to hunt you down to talk to you, but got too busy. To all, this truck is beautiful up close and it sounds impressive! What's it got for power? A V12?

Good choice for the power plant!

I wanted a heater inlet scoop, so, Devin had one that I copied. I had 10 of them made. They are made of 16ga steel. It cost me 130.00 for all 10, so, if anyone is interested, 13.00 is what they will cost, plus shipping. Please PM me if you want one, don't reply on this thread...or check the...

Lemme, try here, might not work from here,

The return for a bypass filter should be returned directly to the crankcase. Flow thru the filter isn't enough to be put back directly to a component that needs pressure and flow. Damage to the component will occur.

That's 'cause you can make it probably alot cheaper than Memphis sells it for. It's only a 1/8 NPT on 1 end and #4 swivel on the other end.

RE: Cummins NHC 250 The hose from the top of the pan goes to the outer most port on the lube pump, the one from the bottom of the pan goes to the inboard port on the lube pump.

RE: Reduction geared lug wrench I've seen them on e-bay once in a while. Didn't think they were for 1 1/2 in. lug nuts.

If the FDC is still hooked up, don't see a reason you couldn't run it, just do a 75 to 25% mix w/diesel, and it should ne fine. The diesel and oil will have enough lubricity to not hurt things. It doesn't separate in the drum does it?

Is this the correct winch accessory for the deuce? $110.00 a good price? Hope so, cause I bought it!

Mike and Jon, I'm up for a trip to Walker and Barstow. Maybe Devin would come too. Give me a couple o weeks to get my wife up and going strong again though.

Bjorn, These engines have a different head gasket than other engines I have been around. There is a groove or sipe from the fire ring to the outside of the head gasket right under each exhaust port. If the gasket is blown, it will make a very noticable tick tick tick, mostly at idle. It goes...

Is it the pulley on the gen. or the pulley behind the damper?

The piston cooling nozzles aren't cast into the block. Early ones were metal, later, 1980 and up, are nylon. Higher HP, 350 and above, engines have the places for the PC nozzles machined into them. The block casting is the same from a Piston cooled to a non piston cooled engine. Machining is the...

Chad, yes I did, forgot about it. I'll PM ya.

OK, here's my 2cents , Most all air horns have an adjustment at the rear for each trumpet. But, some horns just screw into the housing to a pre-machined depth...most Japanese/Asian trucks are like this. The ones that have the adjustment at the rear can be adjusted, but, if you try to adjust...
