. Well, by gosh and begorrah it seems that you have found something good to do with your truck! Happy to hear it! Glad to hear that your local MV Collectors Association welcomed you into the fold. There was an event planned in Monroe NC that was cancelled last year. It is planned for...

. Yes sir. You may already have "wet fuel" but definitely new fuel would be worth a try too!

. Wonder if a quart (in a full tank) of Dextron or maybe a healthy dose of Seafoam would help? Sometimes the diesel in the tanks seem to be "dryer" than it should be or "normally" is. My Cat 3126 had a problem surging at idle. Quart of Dextron took about 25 miles on my loop around town solved...

. Dextron of any type is what you need. It is oil based rather than vegetable based.

. Yep, me too. It was a bit of a calamity for sure and I sure didn't help that situation. Somehow, I was under the impression that the LMTV and the MTV's were the 2.5 and 5 tone Stewart & Stevenson trucks. Thought the FMTV was the US Marine special version 7-Ton truck. Ah well, it is solved...

. I am sure there are other opinions, but the gladhands being open will invite more trouble than good IMO. Seal them things back up! ;-) Having just graduated, I am sure you don't have a lot of bread to go around. I am sure that at some point soon that paying for what you learnt is going to...

. Nice sunset! Especially with the truck in the background. Hope you guys had a nice cruise!!

. She made it home (to my place) today. Wish I had more room, but she has her own personal container. Snug, but with enough room to open the door to get in and out. Picture will be posted on the Front End Friday page in the morning!

. Well, most car parts by anybody other than us wouldn't call that transmission "Cute" but is sure does look sharp! Theory is with a brand new rebuild from the factory, at least it only has to be installed one time... (or at least we sure hope so!)

. THAT is cool! Do all you can while you can with him... I remember one of my car projects where I had a pair of milk crates for seats for several months. I drove it like I stole it - even with the crates for seats. Never fell out on the floor either! :cool: How goofy can you be when you...

. Yeah, the crummy part is that the aluminum pedal on the steel hinge. There is a fancy multi-syllable word called Galvanic Corrosion at work here. The two pieces of metal are incompatible. They die a slow death. Looks like you found the solution. Cut out the old and replace it with...

. The hard part is that if the company had access to your cart, they would also have access to your credit card information (or might). Stupid as it sounds - they can't see your cart until you hit the order button. I definitely agree with the ability to take phone orders! In a few instances I...

. A different browser really might be the fix then. AND they are free downloads too. If nothing else, you could download one and test it. In answer to your question about online ordering, yes. I have. I have experienced the same thing you described (or similar) and said bad words...

. Perfect. That was what I thought I was saying several posts ago - but all is well. We have it aired out as it should be now!

. Sorry... Looks like I was busy typing as you were posting. Seems that both of us were saying the same thing. Maybe between us, Maxjeep1 will know what he needs to know. :) Things are definitely more difficult than they need to be!

. You need to be using a different Browser. Yahoo and Google are web search engines. Meaning Chrome or Brave or Microsoft Edge or Firefox or Safari (Mac) and whoever else decided they needed to be in that business. OPINION: Way back when, there was a browser standard. HTML was Hyper Text...

. Thanks for the info. Still, not sure that the 7-Ton trucks are part of that same family...

. As odd as it sounds, all the rattle-shake action that happens on diesel trucks kill more parts than actual wear and tear. When you have time, pull out your books and a torque wrench. Tighten everything in sight TO SPEC and you will have a much happier truck. Chances are you will be a...

. Right. That is what I typed. BUT the LMTV and MTV trucks are 24v. I don't think the LMTV and FMTV trucks are in the same family. Right?

. Sounds like a really nice patch of nice! North Carolina isn't especially better. The really big plus is that you don't have to go far to get "out in the country" around here. Something definitely needs to change and I just hope for the sake of the entire country that it improves. Soon.
