That is about the only thing that would do it. Under normal operation, that button never leaves the cam piston. The plunger spring keeps constant pressure on it. So if the plunger sticks or gets sticky and allows the button to loose contact with the piston it could fall off.

I have come up with a new theory as to why we loose the clips. When the deuce is allowed to set for long periods the old diesel fuel gets gummy and causes the plunger to stick in the bore. Then when you go to start it up, the first time the plunger hits the top of it's bore it sticks and looses...

Check out the site "Beyond Biodiesel" found.

I would contact the dealer and see what are the sizes of his adapters. Looks good though.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. I was off line for a few days. The 12 point bolts are a stronger replacement for the older 6 point bolts. The torque should still be the same though.

I plan on making my own. I looked a while back and no one had them.

Yes. Replace all the hose's. I replaced mine with Stainless Steel wrapped Teflon hose. The shop charges me about $20.00 each. These hoses will last my lifetime and that of my sons.

Hey Chris, I've tried to get ahold of you for a few days now. I think your message center is full.

Well it appears that a number of people here still have trouble believing in adding an oil additive to the deuce engine oil. Several people have contacted me with questions again. This time I talked with my best friend who also is a master mechanic (we both went to trade school together and...

What a waste ! :-(

I guess the centrifuge cleaner is the way to go then. Costs to much for me right now though.

Well one good thing about using used engine oil. You have no rust in your tank !!! Do you have some kind of "prefiltering" of your oil ? Like it goes through a filter into a 55 gallon drum, then gets pumped into your fuel tank ? I was thinking about doing something like that for mine. I have...

To bad they did not build them like MAN built their bus frames. They used "box" channel framing and coated the insides and then filled them with some kind of "expanding" foam. You where "never" to cut or weld or drill on their frames without proper clearance from MAN. Those crazy frames lasted...

I was told it stood for F@cked Up Data . Kinda like "FUBAR" .

Sounds like your "power" piston (I don't remember it's technical name right now) seals are leaking. That is the small piston that "pushes" the air valve open. That allows the large boost piston to apply. If the seals here leak, it will send brake fluid out the air bleed line which used to go to...

I was wondering about that. Fort Lewis has a couple and they all must be mutilated. The trailers all looked fine too.

Now that is a great idea ! Hey, just an aside here. I'm getting sacked from this site soon due to doghead not liking my comments or me personally. Go to the CUCV section and look at the thread "bolt on box framing". Go to the last two pages. So I would just like to say your a great bunch of...

That's the correct way. Dimple down.

I think I saw that guy on a ship once !!! Hey just a heads up. I'll be getting the boot off this site soon due to my "bad" post which Doghead did not like. So I would just like to say your a great bunch of guys here and I'll miss you all. Take care, rustystud.

Need to make a "air dam" like the semi-trucks use. That would help a lot I'm sure.
