Turned out to be just like the above vehicle, probably one of the ones toward the end of Kalamazoo manufacturing companies life. It has the Ford 2.3L OHC engine in it with a carb. and distributorless Ignition. It was in decent shape but just not my cup of tea.
Did some more research and while it isn't one of the Kalamazoo made vehicles it is from the company that now makes the same type vehicle. Basic same vehicle different engine. It was used in the Navy and I'm going to look at the one for sale locally just to see it...
Ok was at a car show with the M274A4 Mule and someone came up to me and asked if I might be interested in what he called a Kalamazoo vehicle that he got from an Air Force base.
I did a bunch of searching but basically found no matches until I searched for Kalamazoo Manufacturing Company, then I...
I'm somewhat new to the Mule but would suggest using a Zinc additive in the Engine oil as it uses flat tappet hydraulic lifters and the new oils due to emissions have gotten rid of the zinc. Newer vehicles use roller lifters or followers so zinc isn't really needed.
I was at a local auction and ended up picking up an F9000H-3S air conditioner for a decent price and was wondering where I could find an already terminated 5 pin generator to A/C wire?
I've found the bare plugs but would rather find a complete wire if I can. This A/C is the 3 phase 208V one...
Well I think it has the 2" spacers, but to make sure here are some pictures.
Adding pictures is a little strange if you're used to doing through something like photobucket, but it does get a bit easier. You have to go the advanced reply route, then go to the manage attachments to add pictures.
Right now I'm not sure of anything on this mule. Since the data plate may be a replaced one I'm not sure of anything. It has the steering hatch but the hatch itself has no real way to secure it to the deck. I'll try again to put some pictures up. The last pics said I had to get permission before...
Thank you those pictures help an extreme amount. The rubber Packard connector is missing on mine, and the magneto breather(?) hole is just open. I have seen pictures from the manuals showing it plugged with a pipe plug, but where should it go to if the line is hooked up to it?
This particular...
Okay bear with me, I haven't used photobucket in a while, but here are some pictures.
**** removed photobucket links as the system automatically limits new members from posting outside links ****
Sadly no painted registration numbers remain. I know I called it an ignition wire, but yes I know it actually is a ground wire, just the manuals don't really show a good picture of how the wire connected to the mag itself, and I have actually just joined the G503 forums. I've found some very...
Does anyone living in New York State happen to have a Gama Goat? For some reason after seeing some videos of them I'd like to see one up close so I could see if one would be something I would like to own.
I want one but will probably not be able to afford one.
I have a Baifield M274A5 converted to 4WS, and an electric starter, no alternator.
I know what the problem is but don't know what the piece is called or what it actually looks like. The piece that threads into the magneto and hooks to the ignition wire is missing from the mag. Actually the wire...
Actually I almost consider anything above NYC upstate, just because when we New Yorkers say we are from New York people instantly think we are from NYC.
I just joined the other day, and am in the process of getting an M274 Mule. I have already been a collector of other militaria, mostly Dummy rounds and some other things like field phones.
I spent a couple years in the Army during the Clinton years. I was in Artillery and now when thinking back...
