    Replacing Radiator with Aluminum

    I've used standard green is most applications UNLESS specific needs dictate otherwise: sensative components, special seals, specific temperature, ect. IMHO it is the use of tap water, having chemicals and minerals, that is the biggest contributor to problems. USE DISTILLED Here is a COPPER /...

    Blackest matte black

    The "Mother in Law".........Dark as the look she sends me when I make a joke at family dinner. As for the coverage....That 9 x 9 would be eaten up quickly. especially with that majority of military vehicles be very angular. Have to take out a mortgage to paint a Deuce.

    Burning out directional flasher module?

    Use a multi-meter to check power output of the alternator. Check the power INPUT and OUTPUT at the module and the lights. This tells you where a short or other problem may be. Erratic or inconsistent alternator output can affect smaller components, but still function in the vehicle...

    Why do I need DOT 5 brake fluid in my Deuce 1/2 ?

    I dunno if this is the best option or not. It has worked for me Four Seasons 69994 Super Flush Solvent Using denatured alcohol to bind and remove moisture sounds like it might be the better way to go.

    Why do I need DOT 5 brake fluid in my Deuce 1/2 ?

    I've flushed the system prior to disassembly and work. Tapped and installed a bleeder in the bottom of the master cylinder. No problems yet. But once water is in the lines and down stream.....your going to have a challenge. Post #5, 87cr250r suggests the addition of silicone based vacuum...

    M35 loosing fuel prime

    Had similar symptoms with my A2. Several compromised sections culminating to a not running vehicle. The sending using has massively wide tolerances, but lower fuel level and / or cracked rubber line did it. Additionally I had fuel leaking ( bad gasket at primary filter ). Truck would start...

    Squeaky belt

    Check and investigate for underlying problems: Alignment, age, damage, tension. If all is good, then it should not 'squeak' consistently. If the noise is intermittent ( start up, rain ) then you might consider moisture / humidity / contamination. At that point keep driving or replace with a...

    Where to find fuel filters for Multi Fuel M35a2

    The housing is the first ( primary ) fuel filter. The filter is shorter than the housing so it can be used as a water separator. There is a spring inside to position the filter properly. All the NAPA filters ( that i purchased ) came with multiple size gaskets. Take your time, I had a hell of a...

    Flush brake lines or replace them?

    Clean it out. If you have any major suspicion, there are brake line detergents. Blow out the lines, flush with detergent ( i flush until I run out of detergent ). Blow out again, then power bleed. Good luck. Cheers

    I got a stupid question

    Was the existing fluid the same color you poured in? Purple like the silicone DOT5, or clear/ yellow for DOT3. Hopefully you can tell if you crack a bleeder. Cheers

    Dead Pilot's M38a1

    Very cool acquisition! Keep the mis-match paint! Shows character. A lot of the pieces looks nicely original and usable / re-storable.

    Just bartered for a trailer, please help!

    The A2 is easier to find civilian spares / parts for. A1 can be pretty dedicated for mil ride height and wheels.
