Data point on the 19.5 Michelin tires. Our local surplus tire seller, Gensco, got a huge batch in a while back, and promptly began selling them to the car haulers and others that run that tire on trailers. They had to refund every sale. Tires are crap.

While you have it apart, consider retrofitting a tractor protection valve down there. I put one on my A2.

Told you to wait for the experts to chime in. Runaway is a known thing with these engines.

Before you pull the IP wait for the experts to chime in.

Often the reason for no starts on dormant multifuels is a stuck fuel shut off lever, located under the cover where the engine stop cable goes.

Welcome! For sure ditch the 16.5 rims, they are not stock on CUCVs. Go back with 16s and mount up 245s and up.

Suggestion: obtain any and all information about the truck you wish to move: weight, dims, running condition. Then contact a transportation broker such as Joey and let them get to work finding you a truck looking for a load.

Sure. The tank is so tucked up there you can hardly see it. Use any of the "camouflage" colors (Krylon, Rustoleum etc) such as forest green. Or use flat black.
