    Another load of forgotten Mutts.

    This kind of reminds me of the current GL situation. Nothing sold that can be used.

    Military Museum Participates in Europen Soft Air Tournament

    I rented 6 of my trucks this last weekend to haul "troupes" from one battle zone to the other. I had no idea this sport was so popular. These guys spend hundreds to thousands of Euros on their weapons, clothing, and etc.. The USA forces were against European forces and the US won! Some of these...

    M923A1 radiator leaking drivers side.

    Last Sunday I had my A1 and A2 out on a soft air tournament rental. The A1 started leaking just a little bit. The leak is coming from the tray below the radiator. I can see no direct leaks from the radiator. The upper and lower hoses are dry. One thing strange is it will only leak when running...

    I won a 934A1 last week.

    The stock muffler came off the A2 and a straight stack went on.

    I was tired of the lack of low end on my one of my A2's and I did not want to mess with the pump so I removed the muffler yesterday. The stock muffler was 2 kilos more than a new muffler for it was full of soot and rust. To install the straight stack I had to use the stock elbow below but this...

    We have been cut off.

    I was attending a rally with the 923 Sunday and coming down our Valle ( one way in and one way out) I found the tunnel blocked with 8 meters of mud, rocks, and trees. They say up to 2 weeks to clear the mess and build a retaining wall. A temporary road will be finished in a few days.

    M923A1 was unloaded today!

    The first of a 4 lot I bought arrived today. Trucks here in Europe are getting rougher every time they come up for auction. It does have a new or rebuilt motor and a new cab. I have never bought a truck with a new cab. We have been told all 900 series are to be sold by the end of this year...

    Can you have too much oil pressure?

    You might want to us a "motor oil flush" aditive. They have them here and I feel they work on old motors that have set. I also had a Ford F800 with a Ford 6 cyl turbo motor (ex US NAVY) that had low oil presure. I flushed the motor and cleaned the sending unit and it was fixed! It bothered me...

It was summer early and I choose a test truck with a cummins and was ready to see all the bad things happen to the motor people had warned me. But nothing bad happened till one late september...
