I have a LD-465-1 motor in my deuce, I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Personally unless you just want the sound of a turbo I would leave it as it is. My deuce smokes worse than a locomotive but I enjoy having the smoke when people tailgate me....[thumbzup]

Thank you sir!!!

What does this red "C" mean????? I have searched and was not able to find anything related....

:ditto:

Is it a constant fast idle or is it surging?? When I changed out fuel filters on my deuce I got some air in the fuel lines and for about a week my deuce would surge from about 1000 RPM to 400 RPM.... Just a thought.

ecupirate and I were deployed together in the "lovely" city of Baghdad and we returned in February of this year. I have been in the Army for 12 years now, Active, Reserve and now National Guard........ And I FINALLY get to drive a MV without wearing a kevlar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I use a slightly crushed pint paint can, it is small enough to grip the pipe and rusted enough to blend in nicely. ( I also get great distance when I forget to take it off[thumbzup])

:funny: And I was nowhere new that Doohicky!!!!!!

Just a thought but were there any ruts in the road? I have noticed that my deuce pulls right or left pretty hard if the road is bad. Of course this wouldnt explain the whining noise that you heard.

I can add to the driveshaft story. Today I was driving to my brothers shop in the deuce when I heard a loud "bang" on the floor board. I was only about a mile from my destination so I kept going while watching gauges, and "feeling" her as I drove. When I got there I did a walk around and...

They are selling perfectly good parts because they are surplus items. The government dosent need them anymore. As far as GL goes "most" of the trucks just need a set of batteries and some fuel, but please do a search here on SS and read up on recoveries.

As far as adding a whole gallon to the oil, I went on the opinion of a very experenced diesel mechanic when I added that much. I have been VERY impressed with the results. The truck is using less oil and is much easier to start when cold ( it doesent sound like a threw a box of nails in the...

:ditto: I use Lucas in the engine oil. I can say that it has helped ALOT during start up and it has cut down on the clatter during cold starts. I have also noticed that I build oil preassure much faster during startups. I use a full gallon in each oil change.

Exactly my point

I also found out that here in NC we MUST apply for a NC fuel decal to run out trucks within the state. If you plan on running your truck out of NC then you must either... 1. purchase a 3 day fuel decal for $50.00 at any weight station....or 2. purchase a IFTA fuel decal This is simply...

Here is a copy of the letter that I sent into the Motor Carrier Enfoecement section of the NCSHP. Heres hopin that all goes well....... Dear Sir or Madam, This letter is in reference to Citation number 3179239-3 written by Trooper M.T. Dalton of the NCSHP on 02-19-2010. On February 19...

Please look at my thread "stopped by the NCSHP" As a former LEO and a current soldier I was cut no slack by a DMV officer for being "overweight" The ticket is being disputed but carries a $630.00 fine.

Sorry, but I dont know the section/law that says you dont have to pay. I am just going off of what the motor fuel tax officer said.
