Maybe because you no longer need an exhaust pipe extension for fording. All the LDS-427 multifuel turbosupercharged deuces had rear exhaust, same as yours. Puts the “coal” right in the automobile driver’s window.
Air drop door windows same as regular FMTV. Download the parts and operator manuals from the TM section of this website under “current conflict vehicles “. The TM will give you the part numbers you need to be able to start your parts search.
My guess is someone whacked the hand lever and broke the gear or pinion. The solenoid provides pilot pressure to move the spool. The function would likely work electrically.
They are called blackout marker lamps. There is another one in the grille called the blackout driving lamp. See ebay for these, the ones you want have black rubber connectors.
Funny story on this. My shop is right near a property with bee hive boxes. On Sunday when I was going to work on the truck, I noticed beekeepers removing the boxes. No big deal I thought until I started draining the radiator and was ATTACKED by pissed off BEES and bitten 5 times ouch...
I’m a little confused, if the truck is working, why do you need a starter? FMTVs have lots of gremlins but the starter is not one of them.
On the window, that can be problematic. Check ebay and call around to all the dealers such as Eastern.
No, you can start the engine with the cab tilted. Also to answer an earlier question, when the master warning panel says "stop" that is just a suggestion, there is no electrical interlock. But if you don't you will quickly regret it.
If the ambient temps are above 40 or so the fan will need to come on. You will need to diagnose this issue. The TM with diagnostic fault tree is located in the TM section of this website.
Do you have a voltmeter with you? Is the troublesome thermal switch on the starter bypassed? Look for two small wires that go into a module on the starter not associated with the solenoid. If it's connected still, cut the wires off and twist together. Does the PDP click when you press the...
Certainly don’t replace a GEP engine with a GM engine and certainly don’t use the computer controls the GM 6.5 came with.
Put 12 volt solenoids in your existing injection pump.
Got a multifuel deuce in and crank pulley/harmonic balancer totally loose. For anyone that has run into this before, is this a busted crankshaft? Before I tear into it just wondering.
