    HOL-GAR CE-106-AC/WK 9 EP Genset

    Your questions are pretty vague. What does "a good job" mean to you? The main similarity is they are both military. Not being a smart butt, but that's about where the similarities stop. The Holgar is gasoline -MEPs are diesel. The Holgar has no electronics what-so-ever. Both AC and DC...

    NHC250 alternator pulley loose, throwing belts!

    The resistor is usually gold in color with fins in the longitudinal direction, about 1.5 to 2 inches in length. You'll see one of the black ends have pushed out if it went south. It's held into place with screws so you'll have to unsolder the ends to unmount it. I get the resistors from...

    NHC250 alternator pulley loose, throwing belts!

    Regulator. Check the large pile resistor and see if it phused it's guts out. If so. $5 fix. If not, new regulators are reasonable and abundant. Al Jones M923

    NHC250 alternator pulley loose, throwing belts!

    Your unit needs repair if you plan on returning it to service. You need a new rotor and pulley. I have attached two documents - a parts list and a wiring diagram. The "R" is not used on the 250. The parts show up fairly frequently on ePay. You have lost shaft section - if that lets loose...

    M923A2 Replacement Stickers (Labels)

    Be sure and clarify if the labels are NOS, current milspec, or reproduction from anyone you might buy from. The reproduction ones I bought were less than acceptable (did not stay on, faded in sunlight, glossy). Al Jones

    LDS vs LDT

    What would really be useful is adding some information as to WHY an LDS. I'm don't think saying so without reasons is helpful to the OP. Al Jones (I thought it originally said M151 too - heh heh)

    M923 with M38A1 in the Bed??

    I've entered my M923 and (maybe) M38A1 in a car show in a few weeks. I want to piggyback the M38A1 in the bed of the 5 ton. Any chance I'll stretch or wave the sheet steel in the bed? The bed is perfect so I don't want to bend it. If anyone has experience doing this, chime in let me know the...

    Yet More coolant issues! 84' M923

    I'd be a bit careful. Last time I researched air horn solenoids, they are not continuous duty. So for the short term, I think you're ok. For the long term, carry a spare in case the coil fries. Al Jones 84 M923

    M105A2 Emergency Air Conversion

    Can any post how far the bottom of the tank is from the bottom of the cross member? I see now that the plate does no go to the top of the cross member. I just realized I do not have the ubolts for the tank - anyone know of a source? I'll also post in the classifieds. Thanks, Al Jones
