Guess I am lucky. So far no leaks and 76,000 miles.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
A self tapping screw in the seep hole on the flex plate cover will buy you some time till you can fix it the right way.I'll try that leak fix stuff. Maybe it causes the seal to swell up or something. I have to keep the home owners assoc off my case, oil in driveway = bad.
Well, OK, I appreciate all the thoughtful replies. There is lots of wisdom there. I don't want to work on it anymore, I have no time for another hobby. I like the truck, but not so much that I am willing to make the commitment to maintain it and I cannot live with ANY older vehicle , whether it be a classic mustang or an MV, leaving me alongside the road. I travel alot for work and cant miss flights, meetings, and such waiting on a tow truck. So what solution has God brought me to consider? He has provided resources to buy a Chevy Avalanche 4x4. So,the CUCV can sit, costing me no time or money, until I figure out what its future will be.
The ONLY way a cucv will NOT cost you money, is if you use it as a WHEEL CHOCK for a 5t or larger MV
New trucks have issues also.And big surprise every one! Its a mid 1980's truck that needs work! Who would have thought it.
There will always be something to fix or replace or adjust. Its a old truck. If you wanted a hassle free should have got a new one with a warranty.
If you look at it that way you wont be so bummed out when things happen. Because they are going to happen. Just tackle one thing at a time and keep plugging away.
how do u clean it...?I agree with epitts, Clean Your CDR valve.
A CDR that is stuck closed will build up pressure and cause leaks.
WOW! Someone a little grumpy today?!really man ? this is like the only joke you have about cucv's if you dont like them and just want to talk smack go some where else. all you do is say bad things about them on here and in chat. its getting old.
