    Air Ride Seats - best place to tap-in for running air to seats?

    That is why you carry electrical tape or vice grips with synflex. Cut it bend it over and clamp with tape or vice grips. I tapped into the air and so have others in the cab at the back wall. I did not add a regulator. There are three fittings down by your right side coming out of the floor by...

    Tom's Overdrive kit

    Yea sad that Tom is slowing down and looks like a great product. Think most are stepping up to 5 tons and all the newer stuff 939 series and FMTV's plus seems like Deuce owners are ok with using the Deuce for local stuff and not worried about higher highway speeds. I still have two Deuces but...

    M915A1 Air Valve leaking,please help :D

    You sure it was not rated for 50k. Yes it will do a lot more. First what did you get the truck for cross country or local hauling. With the stock set up it she will pull real nice on hills. I have a 915A2 and 4.56 gear set Allison four speed. My top speed is 60 mph at 2100 rpm. Now I was...

    M915A1 Air Valve leaking,please help :D

    Agree on the up grade to air ride seats. I did not like the fact that if the cooler leaked it would put coolant into the fuel. Also forget but if I remember for every 10* in fuel temp we loose 2% HP.

    M915A1 Air Valve leaking,please help :D

    My 915A1 had the fuel line heat transfer thing. If I remember there are coolant line fittings on the back side. Since we want cool fuel maybe it was put there to prevent gelling? I never liked it and was going to remove it but sold the truck. Can't help with the valve.

    302 vs 331 Holley carb

    They make epoxy made for gas tanks. I keep at roll of it in my truck tool box. As for jetting I look at the ground strap on the plug and there should be a visible color change heat line right at the curve. Farther to the tip is colder / rich and farther down past the curve down is getting a...

    starting question

    Remember just because the in tank sounds like it is working does not mean it is pumping fuel. Happens when the bottom plates fall out sounds good but no cigar. You could just try and leave the master on longer or in tank run longer before you hit the starter. You can also check for air at the...
