    Injector Return Lines Leaking

    It's probably been covered elsewhere, but I just wanted to stick another post out here for the search gods. My truck has been hard to start since I got it. Usually taking at least two attempts and 10 seconds each. Holding the pedal to the floor and letting the in-tank pump run helped, but it...

    May have screwed the pooch with WMO

    Had a bunch of old WMO in gallon jugs laying around from various oil changes. About 25 gallons worth altogether. There was a little (1-2 gallons) of used gear oil and some used ATF (maybe 1 gallon) in the mix. I poured all this in the tank, filtering it through two pairs of pantyhose and...

    Transfer case won't shift into low

    Anybody else have this problem? I've searched extensively on here and either couldn't find the same problem or, those that did, never posted a resolution. It will shift from HIGH to NEUTRAL and back with no problems and does not pop out of gear. But, I can't get it to shift into LOW...

    Came with the truck...

    I have a MT-6352 base mount, an LS-671 loudspeaker controller and an LS-454 loudspeaker that came with the truck. I have no use for this stuff and know nothing about its working condition, but I thought I would check and see if it's worth anything. If not, I'll just toss it but I thought I...

    Oops, I did it again

    Well, after a long layoff to do some home improvement projects, raise the kids a little older, etc, etc, I am now off to pick up deuce #2 this afternoon. '70 (I think) M35A2, W/W, soft-top, fiberglass troop seats, Air-O-Matic power steering, heater, rifle mounts, convoy light mount, in-cab...

    Deuce modern equivalent?

    Just curious, what would you guys say is the modern civilian equivalent of a deuce? In other words, if I wanted to buy a 2.5 ton off-road truck (4x4 or 6x6) with all the modern conveniences, what would I buy? I did a little Googling and it looks like the GM C4500 Kodiak is pretty close but it...

    Deuce kids toy

    Anybody know where (or if) you can find a plastic deuce kids toy? The boy got a Mack semi with flatbed trailer and backhoe for Christmas. The whole rig is about 3ft. long. I'd love to find something similar as a deuce. If not a deuce, any MV would do. Thanks!

    IA Event 4271

    Just a heads up, it looks like they've added 3rd and 4th pictures to most of the lots in IA this week. However, it appears that most of these new pictures are of the exact same truck and reused for multiple other trucks. They are all under-hood photos and if you look at the rust spots, paint...

    What do you think this is?

    1952 GMC Military 6x6 And what do you think it's worth? He emailed back and said it "ran when I parked it" a couple years ago. I've owned an M35a2 before, how will this thing compare? I'm not necessarily a diesel fanatic, so the gas motor (assuming it's an OA331, right?) doesn't turn me off...

    Looking for an M1008 in the Midwest

    I'm looking to buy an M1008 in the Midwest. I live North of KC, MO, by the airport. Looking for a stock truck, no (or very little) rust, good tires, brush guard, shackles, everything works, but doesn't need to be a show queen. Would possibly trade (full or partial) my '67 M715 w/winch, bone...

    Bad turbo

    Will the truck run if the turbo is bad (i.e. inoperable)? I'm looking at one that has a bad turbo and just need to limp it home.

    Cold starting

    I checked the other cold-starting threads and didn't see this exact scenario, so here goes. It's getting a little colder around here, now, and the deuce is a little hard starting. What's weird is that it fires immediately, just like when it's warm, but then dies after a couple seconds of...

    Standard upgrades

    I've read about a lot of upgrades guys have done to their trucks. I was wondering if there were a set of "standard" upgrades that people do to their trucks? Things like coolant filters, spin-on or remote oil filters, spin-on fuel filter(s). Anything that would extend the life of the truck or...
