    MEP 802A Ruined by Open Stack?

    I have often wonder what effect a uncapped exhaust has in the long storage. Myself if it is a single cylinder and a pull start or a way to rotate the crank leave it on the compression stroke buy pulling the pull rope or rotating the crank. Seems like a twin or more cylinder would always have a...

    LD/LDT vs LDS Hydraulic heads

    Fuel to the injectors is controlled by the control collar. The lower the collar rides the more the spill port stays open through the plunger stroke. The higher it rides the longer the spill port stays closed and more fuel is delivered. The plunger rotates. Sure seems like that would produce...

    LD/LDT vs LDS Hydraulic heads

    Don't want to step on toes but the holes are the spill port. I don't think they would affect timing Rusty. It would allow the plunger to hold more fuel longer if the hole was higher. The control collar is what slides on the plunger and keeps the holes closed. When the control collar is down then...

    Engine Runs Like Poop

    Are you are sure both your timing marks are on and the HH is one tooth to the rear. Then do a pressure test. In tank pump close or over 4 psi. Idle 30 psi. and 2000 rpm 60 or over psi. Is the FDC bypassed? Get all that done then tweek fuel on the IP with pyro.

    LMTV braking question

    Lots of people forget that hard shifting is what you want when you have heavy loads slow ground speeds and high rpm plus off road ruff running. You don't want slipping and as Scottmandu said it's not your slip and slide powerglide. As said above you might be able to tweek the trans and also if...

    Sudden Deuce Starting Issue

    I might check the delivery valve spring first as it is a quick and easy. Just don't loose the spring or needle. Also is your FDC bypassed. That needs to be done.

    Rear air tank install

    Yea Rusty I did just about the same thing years ago. I put a smaller unit on the tank and line that just feeds the air pack. At least yours protects all the tanks and feeds.

    Sudden Deuce Starting Issue

    The Head removal is not hard and I am betting on the button. Now there was a thread where the delivery valve spring was broken and that corrected the hard starting problem. There is also the overflow valve that can cause hard starting problems but I have never seen a thread with the problem...

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    I'm packing now and chopping at the bit to get up there. As I said before I am packing light and only one person has said he wants one of Hemtt air ride seat. If no one else says they would like one or at least would like to see one then I will only bring one extra. Good time to get one or two...
