    Bass Pro car show Foxboro, MA 10-3 & 10-17

    So I'm going to try and take the 10 ton to one of these two (or both) of these shows. I finally got the oil leak fixed and I got my filters the other day. Anyone else want to convoy in? These are the last two for the year. Last years last show had a big turnout.

    Foxboro, MA Aug 23rd (Thursday)

    Bass Pro car show is this Thursday August 23rd. I'm gonna be taking the Marauder there. Anyone else want to meet up? I get out of work around 4 so I'll probably be there around 5:30. I'd like to take the 10 ton but it just leaks so much oil I don't quite feel comfortable going that far.

    Cruise Night Mendon, MA 8-17-12

    The big car dealer Imperial Cars is having their annual cruise night this friday. Last year there was a deuce. I'm bringing the 10 ton this year since it's less than 5 minutes from my house. It's a big show, a lot of different vehicles and nice cars. Hope to see some SS there. Imperial Cars...

    MA "special fuels" License:Here is the Legal Docs you need!

    MA "special fuels" License:Here are the Legal Docs you need! Finally found it again; special fuels license and tax documents/info. I kept searching for alternate fuel permit not "special." $25 annual fee for renewal and 21 cents per gallon road tax. Seems pretty reasonable to me. Have to file...

    Hydraulic oil is GOOD!

    Just wanted to share, hydraulic oil is by far my favorite fuel. It had been a while since I got a large quantity of it and I just fueled up over running diesel in the 10 ton and what a difference! Smoother running and a very noticeable increase in power and, surprisingly less smoke! There were a...

    Teledyne and TTC FMTV/MTV Pics, Info, manuals needed!

    Does anyone have any info about the TTC and Teledyne FMTV and MTV prototypes produced in 89/90? I'd like pics of the 6x6 cargos and tractors and the 4x4 cargos. Specifically looking to see how the tractors are set up behind the cab and before the 5th wheel. Does anyone know what the Rockwell...

    NHC 250 Injector and Valve Adjustment Issues

    Now here's the deal: I've got an M818 that was running poorly, smoke, fuel in coolant, no power at all. So, I pulled the injectors and cylinder #2 had no tip left. I figured they are cheap enough I'll replace them all. After swapping the new ones in the truck ran poorly, smoked a TON, and...

    Nhc250 Fuel in Coolant-Worn nozzle, packing, or cup?

    I'm getting lots of fuel in my coolant. which of these is the culprit- the injector nozzle, packing or cup? Would that be #11,12, or 17 in Fig30? Or is it just the orings? What's the best way to find the faulty injector(s) besides finding a cold/cooler cylinder? Should I just rebuild the whole...

    Bought an M123A1C today

    Happen to find an M123 on Craigslist at the beginning of the week and checked it out today. Seems to be in pretty good shape, though there is some rot. It was only about 40 minutes away on a normal drive so it was a slow ride back on the highway. Took a while for the flat spots to finally even...

    Running M818 Without Canister Filter, Won't Prime?

    Ok, So my stock fuel filter was glogged so I order some filter bases and filters to go inline with the stock canister. I hooked up one of the filter bases and took out the clogged canister filter and now the truck won't prime/run. Is there some sort of safety feature built into the canister...

    PTO and Transmission grind with clutch in

    Ok, So I've been having an issue for a while where the transmission and PTO will grind with the clutch in and trying to shift. It seems to happen a lot if I throw it in neutral and cost and then try to get back into gear. I usually have to stop to get it in gear. If I'm stopped or using the PTO...

    No Pressure at Bleeder but Intank pump works

    I was driving my Deuce and it had a severe lack of power and would keep cutting out like it was staving for fuel especially when I shifted into 4th. I figured it was the filters again. So I changed out all the filters and went to bleed the system but I hardly get any pressure at the bleeder...

    Oil Based Paint as fuel?

    I've heard that recycling centers take oil based paint and mix it with other "fuel" to burn for energy. My question is how can this be adapted to the deuce? Would it require too much filtering to even be worth it? Does anyone know what these recycling centers are using to burn it as fuel?

    Hart Starting (not cold weather realted)

    Hard Starting (not cold weather related) So, after I got my truck out of the samp, it sat for about a week in my front yard. I went to start it and it just kept cranking and cranking to the point of the batteries dying. The next day or so after I charged the batteries I tried again. It...

    Mack ENDT-673 on WMO

    Just wondering if anyone has run the Mack ENDT-673 on 100% or any ratio of WMO or WVO or any other alternate fuels. I run my duece on anything I can get, (WMO, WVO/cooking, hydraulic, ATF, Gear, etc.) but mostly get WMO. I'd imagine it can handle a good ratio like the Cummins 250. I have a lead...
