I have heard of that trick. Been a long time. The detergents in the transmission oil really clean it out. Same theory for the fuel system but with the addition of the friction modifiers, it's like adding sandpaper per say to the fuel.

I see two battery's, two alternators and the resistor installed. So still the stock 12/24 system. Fuel filter mod. Wrong oil fill cap. Needs the vented one. Easy fix. Nice truck.

Agree. Best, easiest, cheapest way most likely is to find a M105A3 that's being parted out. They didnt make as many as the A2 so it might be a challenge to find the parts. I'm looking for an A3 myself.

It helps a lot. The older diesels were not designed for such dry fuel. Very hard on the injection systems. Adding it keeps those small parts from sticking. It's also designed to burn. In my CUCV, I always add one quart per tank Two+ in my 06 LBZ Duramax/Allision since I have an aftermarket...

New bulbs arrived. One was busted internally. Chunk of glass about the size of a very small pea is sliding around. Bulb looks like it will work just fine, but with that small piece of glass resting on the inside, I'm afraid it will cause a temperature imbalance on the glass housing and fail...

No longer needed.

Don't know how big the tank is. On my NF2D, it's a 9 gallon tank. I used a pint. A little much for some folks probably, but it won't hurt it. Kubota engine purrs and doesn't smoke a bit no matter the load.

I know things are done "differently" back East, but outlawing surge brakes doesn't make sense at all. Then again, a lot of things they do don't make sense. The way I use my trailers, I prefer surge over electric any day. Curious to read that statue, if it exists.

Welcome Start saving for another one, plus trailers, as this hobby is addicting. Perfect truck for the terrain around Junction, if your that far West. They are easy to work on, and if you leave it stock, plenty of help from guys here and in the TMs. Read everything you can. Plenty of info...

Properly understood and maintained, the stock system works great. If it's not broke.....don't fix it. Mine starts every time, all the time. Even at -3 below zero. All stock and DH mod completed

Do it right the first time, buy the best parts you can afford and it makes a world of difference. Glad the radiator worked.

Why are they outlawed?

Surge brake shock on my tan M101A2 went out today. What really bites is that I had the whole thing apart two weeks ago. Some bolts on the surge assembly/frame rail were loose. Two were a PITA to get to. They looked fine until I put fingers on them and they turned. Now I get to do it all...

Well Seafoam definitely didn't hurt it. Add some two-cycle oil to tank and keep things lubed. Todays diesel is very dry. I always have a bit of both in all my Diesel fuel tanks.

Agree The trailer can handle a lot more weight than the generator. Try it and see. I bet you'll be ok.

Having lived and worked for an agency in NM for 17 years, I really hate to read that you let him off without calling authorities. Especially him being a state employee. More than a few of them have killed others in DWI accidents in NM. Even while driving their state issued vehicle. You opened...

You will spend more $$$ and take more time installing a button that's not needed IMO. As already said, just fix the problem. The more you try to redesign, the more problematic it will be.

Double edged sword That works both ways. Was he texting before accident and forgot to signal, etc. This is the exact reason I have dash cameras. You can hear on the video when you use the turn signal lever, apply brake, etc.

Up in that part of the state, you can drive what seems forever without a turn in the road. Not a lot to look at either. No external distractions. Beautiful country for sure. Was up there a few weeks ago. Your truck would stand out for miles up there. Always amazes me on the stupidity of...

Thanks to Guyfang for posting the Kohler manuals in the TM section. Was having trouble downloading one and he solved the problem and also combined all three into one thread. I haven't given up finding the extremely elusive TO for this.
