    Squeezed fuel Line

    Just a new thought. Now would be the time to upgrade the system. Starting at the fuel tank remove and replace the feed line and run correct fittings and Synflex to new spin on fuel / water catch filter. You can put this new spin on addapter / filter any where you want and that is easy to get to...

    If you can get the DOT Synflex air line to work and also tuck it up out of the way this time.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Finishing up the last of the repairs. The wood at the thresh hold after 10 years of leaking and some minor rot to start with I am replacing the 1 1/8" x 12" oak double lipped flooring. Only doing one side at a time of the middle steel runner. Forty six foot oak piece to do both sides I had to...

    MEP-501 fuel pump seized.

    Yea sitting up that long without a monthly warm up /test and additives not good. I add Opti/lube to the Trucks plus all the military generators that I had. I also double or triple up on the dose to the fuel. Wonder if the tarnish is the same as we see in the Deuce injection system? Myself on...

    GAA Grease

    They are calling it a biodegradable weapons lubricant. Your truck but there are plenty of EP greases at NAPA that will work just fine in my book. There is no place on the truck that you can't put enough grease to change out what is in the greaseable area / fitting. I like the red sticky EP in...

    Combat Rim O-Ring Sizes

    Myself I just use some of the tire soap on the O ring and make sure the sealing edges of the outer ring is not damaged. I make sure nothing is in the O ring groove and looks good. Here I use compressed air to clean it out and inspect. Then I use the two nuts that came with the wheel that are not...

    Need TM# for Multifuel Injector Pump Adjustment

    Click on the yellow on post #5 to open the thread then open / download the troubleshooting manual. So much easer than typing a page of info. Also there is a sticky in the Deuce forum to make things easer.https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?172002-Injection-Pump-Timing

    M923a2 transmission oil quantity

    Yea Trans/Syd is a great. With Trans/Syd you only save money because it will go higher miles before a change. If you had to change out regular trans fluid every time Allison model called for a change and have to have a shop do it it is cheaper to run the Trans/Syd. and run 300k. My .02 The...

    Inner Hub Seal on rear axle

    Before I got some cork I just crammed some pieces of bounty paper towel in the key way under the bearing real tight and never had a problem. I don't believe if your sliding on a greasy bearing the key way stays clean and silicone likes clean and dry. The industry standard for most bearings...

    Air-o-matic regulator.

    Believe most were leaving the regulator out of the system and just running full truck air pressure. Now just a small water catch would be nice as the Deuce A2 did not have an air dryer. Nice upgrade.

    Idle steadily increases for no reason. (Vid)

    I believe so. If I remember a little air in the system it would idle but if you blipped the throttle it would climb but slow to return. Guys it's been a long time since I have worked on a PT system and most on the 809 series. Did they change the return line system on the 939 series. I thought...

    stuck in full throttle multi

    Should be a sticky. Should be part of maybe half year / yearly maintenance to pull off shut down cover and check for sticky fuel control. Seems like it would be easer to correct / free it up if it was getting sticky before it sticks bad enough to cause WOT. I went to inspect a truck that the...

    stuck in full throttle multi

    But leaving the shut down pushed in if the fuel control sticks it will go to full throttle. Do you want a no start and fix the problem or wide open throttle and have many problems. Leave the shut down cable pulled out.
