Mine does the same thing. First stab at the pedal, goes to a mark on the pedal shaft that comes up thru the floor, about 2 1/2 inches from the floor, the brake lights come on when it's almost to that point. Any time after that, the pedal is only 1- 1 1/2 inches from the top of the stroke and the...

But smoke is a good thing. That means it runs! No fuel tank is a problem. Will the tank from the 656 work? Shipping might not be too bad if there isn't any in the USA.

RE: Tennis Oh, I like that! What did it set you back, and how does one go about getting one...or two?

Well....did you make smoke yet????

So DS310 = Direct support for 950 Maint, 310th veh in division?

Is it possible that the 310th IS the 310th Psych Ops out of Fla? If so, why would a truck based in Ca. have direct support of a unit in Fla?

One more little thing to check. There should be a little knurled knob on the fuel shut off valve, the one the wire is giong to. If the coil is swolen, it will cause low power and hard starting. With the engine not running, turn the knob in, 'till it stops, you might need to use pliers. Start it...

JC whitney. They have lots of stuff for older GM products

Here's the stumper for me, RH side; DS310..Direct Support for 310??? The best I can track down is the 310th Psych Ops...

Hey Patrick, how many miles you done so far? In a few posts pack, you said Clarks had new style wiper blades and arms. Did youput them on yet? Do they work better?

Nice trucks! Why you callin' the deuce "oddball"? the only odd thing I see is a 6 on the bridge plate, it's beautiful! You'll hurt it's feelings! I wish I had the nice wide ope spaces some of you guys have :roll:

Too bad you're 3000 miles away. I know a guy who has 5 or 6 multi fuels sitting on shelves, but, they are less turbos.

Is memphis just out of them? I got a new one from them 2 weeks ago.

You can't use the words sweet and V555 in the same sentance! Expensive when it brakes and V555 is OK. If you're around the Los Angeles Area, Look up Larry Fyke. He's THE 555 guy.

OK, I'm a tad ...how you say...SCARED TO DEATH.. of split rims. I can handle standing 5 inches friom an engine making 600 HP, but the tire thing wigs me out. Is it safe to stand on top of the tire, with no air in it and pound on the tire to take it off??? Is the only dangerous part airing it up?

Pat, even though i'm along way away, I love to read about your visits to the various MV resting places and your adventures from day to day. Someday I wanna do something like you are doing out here in the west. Like I said b4, How come all the good stuff happens EAST of the Mississippi...

Ditto! I hope to find sone good MV salvage yrds in Ca, Az and Nv and plan to do a trip. Hope ther is support there when and if i need it.

No, it's not normal. An 855 will start with 0 throttle in most any weather. Heres my best gut feeling from 3000 miles away. You have almost no smoke wuth a PTG pump that is fresly rebuilt. still have low power and hard starting with new filters. The only thing else I can suggest without spending...

Try doing less gas and more diesel. I get the same thing if I put too much gas in mine.
