    Cat said that? 220 means pump is still turning! What about IAPCV?

    Early Wheels

    I don't think any GMC M135s were delivered with combat wheels, but what a cool upgrade! I doubt you will ever find a set of 7 in one place. I have 6 and I got one here, two there etc. Suggest pm the OP, he's looking to sell.

    Just picked up a M54A1C fire truck.

    Welcome, looks like a great start! Got a day or two of torch work ahead of you! The FD put a GMC front bumper on it, the stock bumper has no holes. Post up your progress.

    The two left breakers in your second picture are Federal Pacific and they are widely regarded as defective. They won't trip when needed to. Consider replacing them.

    Transmission questions

    Put a vacuum gauge at the modulator, vacuum should replicate what a gas engine would be, 25 inches at idle and 5 at wide open throttle. If no vacuum the issue might be the valve on the injection pump, called the VRV. If you have plenty of vacuum, and a new modulator, the problem is internal.

    Aloha, ‘67 M725 no reverse

    Stock is T98. I would pull the transmission cover and look for worn or broken shift forks.

    Isn't that switch for the panel voltmeter. Should not matter.

    Need some help from Venezuela

    We can help! Sorry for what your country is going through. Hopefully the opposition will prevail and democracy will return. I hope you have a hand held voltmeter. Start the unit with only lighting loads and verify the output is stable. Flickering voltage will quickly burn up refrigerator...

    1950 Korean War Deuce

    Put the truck on Craigslist etc to see if you can re-home it. Pics posted here will help with appraisal. Scrap money after the trouble to process for scrapping is not worth it.

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    Here's a pic of these trucks over at Ft Carson not more than a year ago. Looks like a creampuff to me. Thanks to Lionel for providing intel that indeed these trucks have age related issues. I have driven COUNTLESS trucks that were freshly excessed from Army service hundreds of miles for FDs...
