These types of starters are very easy to rebuild, and there are kits to re-build 12 v starters. Are there any such parts to re-build our 24 v starters? Has anyone re-built their starter (and lived to tell about it)? Thanks

Ok, so summers a long ways away, but, I am thinking about removing the doors for summer. It is a jeep..kinda. Can I do this? Is it legal? Jeep CJ's run without doors. What about Mirrors? Am I stupid? I seem to remember some discussion about this before, but in searching, I could not find...

I am looking at a MEP-004 15Kw. I have Off-grid property, where I want to have a cabin. Tell me about this unit. As I understand it, it is 400 cycle, right? In reading threads, it also has trouble with 240 volt, Right? I jusr downloaded the TM, and I am working through it, but I could use some...

I drained the oil last weekend, and installed Spin-on filters (thanks Jatonka!). I could not remove the rear Oil plug. I used a cheater bar on the ratchet, and ended up rounding the corners on the drain plug. I ended up removing it with a huge pipe wrench. I cleaned it up with a file, and it...

I have a barrel of a product called "Lubrakleen" it is made by a oil company, "Hydrotex" in texas. It seems like STP, and is a Fuel, or oil, additive. Any idea if this could be used as fuel in the MultiFuel? Or does anyone know about this product? Could one burn STP (probably thinned with...

Ok, I have only had my Deuce for 6 months, but I have probably hit my elbow on the door a couple of times, when turning. I am thinking I may want to upholstry the inside top of the door, so when I slam my elbow into the door, i will not hurt my elbow. Any one else have this happen? Solutions...

Ok, so I dont want to get a 10K fine for not paying fuel tax. If I run WMO in my Deuce, how do I pay my .26 cent/gallon (whatever the amount!) tax. Anyone here in Utah do this?. Dont get me wrong, I am not eager to pay, but .26(whatever) is cheaper that the thousand for a fine. I did call the...

Ok, so I have searched and cant find many pict (or not what I want) of a front receiver hitch. There are times when I think this would be handy. I have seen pintle mounted, not what I am thinking. There was a custom fab, is it possible to mount a stock receiver up front? Oh I do have a wintch...

I have been trying to come up with a way to simply and cheaply filter waste motor oil. I deceided on a stand that would hold a 5-gallon bucket, that would drain through a filter bag, into another 5-gallon bucket. This is what I came up with. I mounted the top bucket on an angle so it would drain...

Does anyone make a "rebuild kit" for the Multi fuel? Dont get me wrong, my engine runs strong, and I have no reason to rebuild. I have rebuilt V-8's, and was thinking, if I could find a Multi fuel in need of a rebuild, it could be a fun project. Has anyone rebuilt a Multi-fuel? Are there entire...

I got my first Duece about a month ago, from "mark montana" here at steel soldiers. My first long trip was about 120 miles from where I live in salt lake city, over several moutain passes. Up to over 7000 ft. Hauling a car on a trailer. Here is my experience, Going up over the moutain...

Ok, I am new to this whole MV thing, but I am a good amature mechanic. I am amazed with the Multi-fuel engine. 465 CI, 22 to 1 compression and a Turbo! How can this make less than 200hp?? and less than 400 lb/ft torque?? What gives? Poor heads maybe? There are much smaller diesel engines...

I am seriously looking at a Deuce. The problem is my wife is disabled (bad knees). She needs a cane, sometimes a walker. I want to take her on rides. Anyone rig-up a step ladder to get into the cab? I can weld-up something, but maybe someone has covered this before. Thanks for your help!

I am looking to purchase a Deuce. I plan on using this as much as possible for fun, and at least monthly for ranch work (hauling water, etc) 120 miles away. So, I plan on driving this frequently. I live in Salt Lake, Utah and there is a local dealer. I have also talked to some other dealers...
