Exactly. I wonder if he is just moving the pedal too quickly to give the same result.

The traffic on the highway has the right of way. They should not be slowing down to accommodate drivers that don't know how to merge. Driving in the Charlotte, NC metro area will show you what happens when you have overly "polite" drivers in a congested area. Every time you come up on an...

Reading the NSN for my USMC M109A3, it specified W/W and Deep Water Fording kit. However, the winch and PTO were removed before being made available to the public. It still has the PTO control hatch that allows the handle to come up through. By the lot number, its a '68 model.

Yeah, If I run the control wide open, my wipers move just fine. The rubber is lacking, but I also haven't replaced it(yet).

Regular DOT3 brake fluid is safe for rubber and softens most paints pretty quickly. Anyone that's spilled some under the hood knows this all too well.

That's quite the video. I tend to take a little extra burst of speed when passing large trucks. I try to give them a wide berth when merging, passing, etc. One time this bit me, as I made a decision to use the right hand pedal to give me more room when merging on a truck, rather than drop...

I ended up using the lot number to determine the year of my m109

I would think that even idling the engine without the lift pump running could put strain on the booster pump. I know its built to work without the lift pump, but the consensus seems to be that it isnt good for it.

Symptoms remind me of a scooter I had as a kid. I put a brand new fuel filter on it and it would run me about 2 miles down the road before it quit. It would always restart after waiting at least 20 minutes. Turned out the new filter had an issue and wasn't flowing enough to keep the bowl full...

I live in a _very_ rural county in TN. I really don't foresee an issue, but I do have commercial tags because the truck is registered by weight.

Good to know. I'm not sure I'll ever be in a situation to be inspected, but I'll definitely rectify that before I take any trips past the center of town.

It looks like theyve done just that. The lower supports seem to go back at an angle that would leave them below the front axle, but eventually meeting the frame. On light lawn equipment, the plow supports often go all the way back to the rear axle to connect. Some even pivot back there...

This is what I got. $5 and it fits in the holes in the dash.

Pretty much. I hate listening to the buzzer while letting the lift pump do its thing.

I believe the pressure switch is on the firewall (inside) immediately to the right of the steering column. Or you can go to the buzzer (which is a bit further to the right, about center of the firewall) and trace the wire back. I recently disconnected my buzzer in favor of a red LED pilot...

There is an M35A2 FB group. Many members are also members here. Yesterday I figured out why my alt isn't charging. Hopefully have a rebuildable alt coming to me soon.

Holy smokes, my fuse was a 2A slow blow. I felt bad replacing it with a 4A slow blow. 20A is nuts, unless its SUPER fast acting.

All credit to XKCD:

Someone posted a nice pic to the FB group of a truck all done up with hundreds of green christmas lights. Not sure if its the same truck or not, but I'm betting it is.

I guess I should have been more clear. The first part of my comment was about cavitation in general. But I made exactly your point in the body of my comment.
