    Greetings from Florida new member with M1030M1

    Now I am wondering where is the leaver for the compression release? The small engine I have it is on the the head. Is this one on the handle bars? Does the bike have kick start? It makes no sence to release compression if your not trying to start it. The compression ratio has to be high on the...

    Greetings from Florida new member with M1030M1

    If it is like any other small diesel compression release it closes it's self. Don't know your set up but leaver in open position and hit the starter. Compression will close it and if it does not start open it again before cranking the second time. The fuel barge I work on had a small two...

    In most cases the compressor feeds the air dryer then to the wet tank / primary tank. Is your air dryer in and out pressure the same. Then go to the wet tank and look for a one way valve. Then work you way to all other tanks.

    Pretty sure my air packs shot.......

    Looks like what we are trying to do is keep the felt ring saturated with oil. That way it lubes and keeps the bore clean with every stroke. I will stick with air tool oil. If at all possible the best thing if not and air dryer would be a water trap on the air-pak supply line. If we go buy the pm...

    Well if your going to disconnect the line at the T case I might put some oil in the hose before you reinstall it.

    R985 radial engine Pratt Whitney

    I posted the pics here on SS but I lost all mine when the old puter crashed. Guess you could say I have got my hands dirty on a Radical engine and troubleshooted on a fighter jet engine.

    R985 radial engine Pratt Whitney

    Don't know if you still have the same pilot for the B-24. It's been years ago at the Keystone air park in Keystone Fl. but I helped and use my M816 to change out one of the engines. Even helped to wrench on her plus my free ride and it was very cool.

    Super singles on M920

    Yea the problem with that diaphragm is it has a metal plate built into it so it is not a standard all rubber diaphragm. I got lucky and had extra parts truck.

    1968 Deuce, new owner - new member

    Are you sure you intank pump is running. When you open the bleeder that is between the secondary and final fuel filters it should be squirting out at 4-6 psi. You just have to crack it just a tad till you see fuel /air bubbles coming out. Don't open it up all the way and start old faith full.

    M35A3 front axle will not disengage...

    When I posted I was not thinking A3. Yes try and go neutral to reverse and I bet it will disengage. The air cylinder is a pain to get off so if it does in gage I would leave that alone for now.
