bdstick, I know a mobile mechanic that works in the high desert that can help if you feel you need the help. He's $85 but worth every penny. Let me know if you want him phone number.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
that's exactly what I'm thinking. It's why I asked where are all the valves that are no longer moving.Cam....
It did not start so he thought ether would fix the problem.Don't spray ether directly into it.
Doghead you shouldn't say that statement this guy could be new to the hobby and take you seriously because of your years here and post count.
[h=1]TM's for the 939 series trucks[/h]where can I find lift info on the cam , the valves and springs all appear to be approx. same height, am I looking at removing engine to replace tappets ? or pulling cylinder head ?
FYI, any more than a split second shot of starting fluid can cause major damage. When sprayed at the air filter it can become soaked and cause a quick runaway.I am sorry I did not start with all the necessary info. it is a M923A2 , 8.3 cummins, with auto trans. I have started over a hundred of these military trucks that have sat around. this is the first time I encountered this problem. I usually only use spray for a few seconds. the engine has approx. 3/4 inch of rocker clearance. pushrods not bent but going up and down. it has to be in the lifters. any info is appreciated.
