Well glad you got it figured. You did throw us off with saying new filters so some of us dig right in with other things that could be wrong and it was just filters / tank sealer. Guess the first post about what is wrong should be change all filters and see if that is the problem. Yea the stuff...
Yea the asphaltenes were sitting on the bottom of my tank. I reached in the bottom of tank and scooped some up with my finger and as said it is like tar very sticky. It can get into the whole fuel delivery system. Reading up on fuel pressures the fuel rail pressure has to come up pretty quick...
Is the black algae more like tar/ candy taffy? I used FuelOx for Asphaltenes on my MTV fuel tank with great results. Now just for my own curiosity sounds like you hooked up a pressure gage after the fuel pump / governor and did a running pressure check. With all the check valves would seem like...
I would think that a pressure drop when the motor starts on your in line pump would be normal. Would seem like the inline pump since it has restriction from filter / lines and booster pump it will build pressure. Now engine starts and booster kicks in and restrictions become much less and in...
M35A3 Fuel Pump/Prime Issue | SteelSoldiers . You said you checked the check valve under the fitting on the Governor and it was not there. Post 12 shows the check valve out and where it is.
Corrected my post about the secondary fuel filter on the Deuce was thinking about the FMTV's. Been a long time since I have seen / sold mine in the A3. Correct me if I am wrong the 3116 in the Deuce did not have the primary fuel filter with primer ball system but could the Deuce 3116 be up...
Believe it was member Gunfreak thread had trouble like that. His was the IP booster pump. The over pressure valve on the secondary if it opens can cause a loss of fuel pressure if it opens when running also.
Believe it was Fuzzytoster had a thread. He took off the line and fitting on the Governor that fed the fuel filter. Behind the fitting was a check valve if I remember.
Yea that is one nice machine and as they say " old Harleys never die they just go faster" I will go with microjeep this month. If his was not on the vote I would have again voted for yours.
If you do a search as I forget where the thread was but there was a mod. Member had FDC bypassed and rigged up a cable control on the FDC servo piston. It could adjust fuel on the fly. To bad there is not more space between the main fuel control and the Head. The stud of the main fuel control is...
Well I made the mistake of turning in my blue antique tag I had on the 1088. Then I decided to tag it again years later with the blue antique tag but they said now I have to get it inspected and get the former military tag and branded title. I believe if you tell them it is a military truck then...
Correct me if Iam wrong as forgetting everything. If we just hook up service air that will not fill the air tanks ( remember correct me if I am wrong ) then drain the air tanks if they are holding air and check to see if sprag cylinder / poppets are holding it's pressure. As said reverse to...
Yea believe he could have made a better choice on the MV to take. At least if he took a tank his ride would have been a lot longer but maybe same jail time.
Yea my bad been 40 years since I worked on my 6v92. The truth never had compressor problems with my truck I bought in 1981. O well hope you get it figured.
Were is the unloader valve on that model? Quick Google looks like it is on the other side of your pic under a plate? Governor easy enough to check, the unloader valves a little harder but not bad you would think as you have some room to work on it with compressor installed.
He bought my NOS springer seat top and added 20 bucks more on top of what I was asking. Shipping cost was over 100 bucks alone. These days with money tight and the World gone crazy you can always tell the good guys.
Yea my tare weight is something around 8160. Got the title from Govliquidation and had the wrong tare at 18028. Never worried about it as I just used it for storage. Now with tags in insurance thought I would get it straight.
