As an engine builder and mechanic, with decades of experience, I'll say the oil pump is rarely the cause of low oil pressure. Not never but rarely. (What's the first thing to get oil, so what would rationaly be the last to wear out). Most often by a large margin bearing clearance is the culprit...

Thank y'all for the replys. I'm busy at work and have been redirected. I didn't get pictures yesterday and having to take off work to make up for overtime (terrible problem to have :LOL:). I will try to get pictures of Monday, but don't know when I will get back to project.

I will take a picture today and try to send it when I get home and can get on a computer instead of my phone. I getting old and phones are too small hard to see and hard to work. Haha.

Have a xm1098 5000gallon water tank trailer at work. Has a single cylinder diesel pony motor. Cannot find id tag on motor. One of the idiots at work tried to repair the ignition swith and didn't get the wiring right. Now doesn't charge battery and oil light doesn't work. Wiring is very simple...

It has the all fuel engine , I believe that makes it an a2. We also have an a3 with the cat and allison, but that's beside the piont. Yes the gauge is in the yellow, first indication of problem. Pulley is worn out so belts wear and get loose quickly. they've been tightened. I will check the...

I'm sure this has been covered but I am in kind of a hurry and am not finding a thread. Our vfw fire tanker is a m35 and noticed it is no longer charging the batteries. I don't know how to test and see which part I need other than just throwing parts at it. I've charged the batteries back and...

thank you for the info. Enjoying new job, especially being off at 4pm. Maybe in a few years I will be able to catch back up on back logged projects and be able to play with m211 again.:wink:

Started a new job at county road and bridge. They have a couple of winch trucks, one rear winch on fifth wheel truck one rear winch flat bed with ginn poles. told to replace cables, hooks just had cables run through and a knot tied in the cable. My m211 has a double nut collar connection(don't...

Had this problem on our tanker truck, local vol fire dept. Checked for wear in everything repacked all bearings wheel and king. checked all steering linkage and tire pressures. Tires looked good and had good tread. Still had problem finally swapped tires with pair from rear fixed problem...

wow quick response. Thank you, now does anyone know where I can get a large supply of "round to its"? I have plenty of time for the oil to settle, as first I need to rebuild my all fuel.

where do you find such filters? And about how much do they cost? I know a centrifuge would actually be better, but from what I've read 1 micron should be plenti useable. About how much oil are you able to filter before filter change and how long does it take? Curious as I have about two...

Again, Excellent, Great help. My TM is TM9-8024, so I believe that would be an earlier edition. I have the exact same illustration on the bell housing numbers, but have looked through the whole book and didn't find the illustration on the engine number plate or the stamp by the dist.. I had...

By the way, the way I finally was able to post is to check "remember me" when signing in. I had learned that from someone's post before but have been busy and not been on site in a while. I also wanted to thank plowboy, NDT, and USMC00-08, for the great help. I would have posted pictures of...

Have typed this reply four times and it keeps telling me to refresh page and sign in, so I finally rebooted my computer to start all over, so maybe try five will work(mean while I answered some of my own questions), so here goes... Excellent, great help! Now my problem is the numbers don't...

I know it has been covered before, but I have spent hours looking for it. Does any one have pictures of where the fame number is on a m135/211. I made the mistake of trying to get tags, when my insurance had the wrong number(namely the ord. contact number). Someone had a truck titled under...

I wouldn't modify the plastic box, as the original military style batteries are available at your popular professional parts stores (ie; o'reilly's, napa, carquest, not your Walmart of parts stores, ie; auto zone, pep boys, etc.). The original style batteries are not much more expensive (10-15...
