To be honest I’m not familiar with that area. I live about 45mins away from where I picked it up.
It was located here…
634 insande ave Cuyahoga falls ohio 44221
*I just looked at google maps and there is a Dairy Queen just a road or two over on Portage Trail!
I have dug around, multiple phone calls and I finally was able to leave a message for a guy who deals with the Military spec side of things at Parker.
Hopefully I get a call back!
Well it seems the fuel pump is junk, unless there are parts somewhere. I disassembled the motor and one of the magnets came out in about four pieces.
If no parts, or can’t be fixed, what’s the next CHEAPEST route? A 24v inline pump?
After soaking the fuel line fittings for an hour or so I was able to pull the fuel tank out and open it up. First, I was surprised to pull out a Parker fuel pump. Hope it still works. Next was the smell, nasty old fuel, smelled like acetone or a paint thinner. I popped the drain plug out and...
I more than likely would never do the conversion, they were just included and that was his, original owners, plan.
I am a long way from upgrades, let alone running! HAHA
When I hopped into the bed this evening to start cleaning I found what seems to be a whole shed of lumber lol So far two buckets loads and I’m half way. Unfortunately about 2/3 of it is rotten. I found a random tail light, a few Chevy truck center caps, an old school A/C compressor, an inter...
This is my first truck. I’ve wanted one for years, and finally stumbled upon this one and the wife said YES!…next week is our anniversary so she said it’s my present! (But now what does she want haha).
Anyways, I’m sure I’ll need help at some point. I consider myself handy, but have never...
Tonight’s agenda will be cleaning out the cab and bed. There’s a lot of random things haha. If daylight allows and our power washer starts, I’ll get to work giving it a bath!
According to the title this past owner had it for 12yrs. Which is good, to me it means he didn’t just buy it, find it’s a money pit or an issue, and resell it. Plus with him accumulating parts means he cared, I suppose. He now has a wife and two kids, and he was just done with it. It had set as...
Here’s what I have found already.
Fuel shutoff was stuck. Small screws holding the “bridge” were to tight. Pulled rod out, sprayed everything down, reassembled, and it’s working now.
In tank fuel pump doesn’t seem to be working. I pulled the fuel line that supplies the filters and I got...
More pics…
also came with a drive side step. A new battery box. The cargo cover brackets. Manuals. And a hydraulic pump for a power steering conversion.
*driver side fender and engine cover is in the bed
Thanks, I appreciate that. It should be dropped off sometime today. She’s a little rough compared to most on here, but it was a steal in my opinion. I’ll share that later.
I’ll take some pics and follow up when I get home later.
Hello, I’m new to this site. I live in Creston, Ohio, 44217. I know this might be a long shot but I cannot find anyone to help me get a deuce home. It is non running but does move. It is located about 35miles away in Cuyahoga Fall, Ohio, 44221. Can anyone on here help transport this back to my...
