I patched the tube on my son's truck. Did it just like I used to do for regular bike tires. It's been holding air no problems.

Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I get it. That IS frustrating.Another issue I am having is a leaking wheel cylinder or two on the driver side front wheel. 12 brand new wheel cylinders on the truck in May. So frustrating sometimes.
I have the stock fuel pump but have not checked to see how much pressure it is putting out. I will do that.Are you running the stock fuel pump or an aftermarket? Maybe you have too much fuel pressure? Maybe need a pressure regulator?
Feels that way sometimes.I get it. That IS frustrating.
It's like the Book of Job, or something.
I will check that. What regulator did you use? I found the Holley 12-804 and was considering that if the pressure from my stock military pump is too high.Fuel pressure. I believe it is supposed to be 3.5 pounds Most aftermarket pumps run 7-12. It pushes the needle off the seat. Learned the lesson on my trip accross South Dakota with the M220.
Yeah, that works real fine.I am starting another carburetor rebuild using the TM. I scanned the Holley 885 FFG Specifications and will scan the rest as I go along to post up for all of us.
Does this PDF show up OK for everyone?

I had the same thought when I was pulling the cab off the new engine stand frame. The motor, trani, axles, front diff, rad and box were all missing and I retain the thought that I can find this stuff and put it back together .There just aren't enough crazy grease monkeys out there that 'need' to have an Early Deuce so we'll preserve what we can and take pictures of our donor trucks I guess.Part of me cannot decide if I want to turn it into parts or not.

This truck really breaks my heart. Only 6000+/- miles on it when it was parked almost 40 years ago. I was told that 40 years ago, this truck looked like new before it was left in the woods.
