    Bad news I am afraid , Finally got the kit for the carb, NO DICE , although it was touted as a direct replacement , its not Even the same carb parts, Will keep looking, BUT the float fits the Studebaker twin cylinder genset engine! am wondering if they have their applications mixed up

    LMTV Def tank?

    Hydraulic/ electric, Pto driven winches are all options, Huck a 18000 lb electric winch on it, prices are decent, performance is good , plenty of rugged frame to build off!

    LMTV SRW intended use

    When winching the ROLLING weight is your main weight concern, not gross vehicle weight , a 12000 pound winch can easily pull a 20.000 truck if its just rolling weight , One has to assess the SUCK /STUCK the vehicle is in, northeast mud and Louisanna gumbo are totally different , Chock, anchor...

    Recoil starter for 1A08 and 2A016 standard engines

    If we ganged anything together MD-3s, Dash Sixties, (in the OLD DAYS lol) we used a handy little tool called the Spider Box . Anything off the Flight line was done by C.E. Prime Power types ( they seemed to have pocket protectors and lots of pens in their pen pocket.)

    Recoil starter for 1A08 and 2A016 standard engines

    Waiting with baited breath for the recoil result, Would beat hand coiling the rope that is always (or Was ) sunsoaked and had a piece of a tree limb in a knotted end for a handle, ALWAYS (seemingly) broke on the third pull. All good memories lol

    MEP-004A - What size electric motor will it start

    Just read the "starting" amperage requirement on the motor you want to spin up, compare with rated output on your genset, Remember some motors take more to start then to run, CONSIDERABLE MORE, air compressors are a prime example, once hat half pressure or so the compressor is exponentially...

    Recoil starter for 1A08 and 2A016 standard engines

    HUmmm, I think, Guy Fang , jump in if you want, But I think the ONAN (Studebaker series) 2A 042 had a near twin used in some welders sold on the civilian market Lincoln and Miller come to mind, I have a basicly identical engine on my Lincoln gas powered, 24 volt 225 amp stick welder, Keep in...
