    Changing all 4 belts.

    Don't you just wiggle the belts over the fan? Removing the fan is no fun.

    Resurrecting a waterlogged mep-803A

    Good luck with it, the engine may come back to life. I bought a M880 truck (318 engine) long ago that was full of water, it fired up and I drove it for years.

    How reliable can I expect a "new" 2012 MTV to be? What locking diff options exist?

    Since so few Cummins powered Brazos were sold, there is literally no field experience with them. If you are buying your chassis from Worldwide in Houston, I can give it a going over for you as the dealership is close to my day job.

    HMMWV Headlights go out intermittently. Bad switch????

    The scenario you are describing has not been discussed here. My guess is that the alternator voltage regulator is failing, and your LED headlights have over overvoltage protection that is cutting them out.

    daily driving m35a2

    My only problem when I was daily driving my deuce was that when you put all your bags of groceries in the bed, they get scattered all around the bed by the time you get home.

    FMTV engine won’t start ... engine oil pressure?

    There is no auto shut down circuit on the FMTVs related to oil pressure. Oil pressure is not required to crank the engine.

    Deuce crash in Winston-Salem, NC, 11/2017

    Deuce headlights not burning either at night. I'll never understand why people think they can get away with "driving dirty" just because they are behind the wheel of a former military vehicle.

    Original SW M37 temp gauge issues

    Since that gauge is aftermarket anyway, throw it away and get a new one. Factory was a 24 volt electric gauge.

    1954 Studabaker REO rear window

    Rusty that is an aftermarket hard top. That is why we are all so befuddled.

    Great new video about the CAT 3116 history, problem areas, etc

    Thanks for the link. Bottom line is leave injector work to the cat house.

    Parts truck

    Sure lets see it. If the frame is cut and the cab is trashed, it's probably a candidate for getting cut up.

    Need alternator and transmission for M915/916/920

    The stock Leece Neville alternator is 12 volt with a POS "transformer-rectifier" attached to it that makes 15 amps of 24 volt juice. The basic alternator is a common item but the rectifier is getting hard to find.

    Can you post a picture of the entire top? Sounds very intriguing.

    LMTV Arctic Bed Heater

    Mainly just curious about it. Looks like you could burn a nice sized log in it. Of course I'm sure it's fuel burning. My 1078 came from Alaska and has arctic kit items on it but not that huge thing.

    M1097 a2

    You answered your own question. Figure out why you have a fueling issue. It could be air leaks on top of the fuel tank, bad fuel pump, plugged fuel filter. Verify no bubbles entering the injection pump by temporarily placing clear tygon hose between filter and injection pump. Worst case you...

    Slave Receptacle Question

    Yes, you must tape up the positive terminal real good and whatever you do, don't unplug the cable until you shut the slaved vehicle off.
