It wouldnt be to hard to sell if you find the right person. CCKW compressor trucks are pretty sought after amongst guys who have a soft spot for CCKW trucks. Oh wait I have a soft spot for those jimmies :-D. How much were you looking to get out of it if its not sold already?

I forgot to mention also that this truck sat with bio diesel in it for years before I got to it. Would it be possible for the injectors to be so gummed up that there is no atomized fuel being shot into the cylinder?
Right on. We were just kind of stumped. We checked the plunger movement with the engine cranking and it moves freely. I didnt try dousing the inside of the pump with spray lube, ill have to try it next time im at the shop.
Having trouble getting an m35a2 to start. I'm getting high pressure fuel up to the injectors. We had the head off of the injection pump and made sure the button was in place on bottom of head. Little bit of white smoke coming out of exhaust while cranking.
Looks like the part the arrow is pointing to is the button. We just had some fun last fall pulling the hyd. head off a duece at the museum. The exact same issue, the button fell off.
Yes I get enough fuel if I disconnect the line and run it into a bucket. I cleaned out all the lines and put a new inline filter on it. Took the carb apart today and cleaned it and made sure everything worked and was clean. Still same thing. She kind of spits and sputters now though.
The cckw 352 I just got is having some issues. Ill start from the beginning. Got it home and it started running like a dog. Wanting to fall on its face when you go to take off and dying when you let it idle for about five minutes but it would start somewhat easily. I should mention that when...
Nice to see this thread got fired back up lol. This M20 ended up belonging to the Armed Forces Museum out of Greenville IL and that is where it sits now. Hopefully in the next coming months when work slows down ill be able to volunteer there. Im really looking forward to it.
Got her home safe. Had some play time out on the field roads yesterday evening.
She actually has a couple issues. It likes to fall on its face when you go to take off or put a load on the engine. that's the biggest thing
Thanks everyone for the enthusiasm. The canvas is pretty new but yes we are going to remove it. It runs sweet too. It starts faster than a brand new truck. Should have it in about a week or a week and a half.
Finally got my first mv and it couldn't be sweeter. It's a 42 352 and its 3.5 hours away. I was wondering if you fine fellas could give me some dimensions on it. I need to know the exact width because my buddy says he can bring it home but his gooseneck is only eight feet wide.
