I didn't check. It was dripping from the weep hole, so I pulled it. The arm was extremely loose on its shaft. They all move some, but this one flops when you move the pump. You have me curious about that now. It will be a month or so, but I have a 6.2 in my class with real easy access...

The mechanical lift pump on my M1009 started dripping two weeks ago. I parked it until a new Delphi unit showed up in the mail. Anybody that has done this repair knows to hate it. I have done it 2 times on M1009's in the past year. Practice did not make it any faster or easier. Lots of...

The filter 90° elbow you have now will rotate, but unless you remove it entirely and just go with a verticle filter. It really won't fit any other place than where it is.

I think the pink wire is going to be the issue. However, look at the fuel return lines and make sure the air filter isn't pinching one or more of them.

The weekend just got more complicated. The A&M sports car club has an autocross at the old AF base that Sunday morning. I think leaving the Rally Saturday evening with all the trucks and coming back to within 4 miles in just the bomber wtih the trailer is the best solution. Sleep, Jennifer...

All 3 of my 1952 or 1953 Gasser M35 cab rear walls have the holes for the factory small window hard top. They were all made by REO still then. My ORD 9-???? (I can't remember the manual number) Which was published in 1950 has hard top pictures and such. It even has the rear step bed pictured...

Something is wrong with that dash plate. There aren't a million holes for microphone holders like mine has. Since you are the fireman, want to swap dash plates?

4 1/2 years ago I wrote about my ALT 2 issues: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?54292-CUCV-alternator-symptoms-diagnosis-and-fix From then until now, the ALT 1 light would kind of glow anytime anything electrical was turned on. Running the lights during the day I couldn't see the...

I have a psi gauge on my M715 with the 6.2. At idle, the gauge will flip around between 6-10 psi. Going down the road it is steady at around 6 psi. I have always attributed the pulsing at idle to the mecahnical pump pumping fuel that has no place to go since the engine isn't using very much...

If your volt meter shows 12, then it is an add on. The stock volt meter with just a single alternator working will be just on the yellow side of the yellow/green line with the engine running and the other alternator working fine. As already posted, anybody that has done the resistor bypass is...

Count Colton and myself in as well. He has his license, so two seperately driven vehicles will show up. I just don't know which two yet. He might even talk his girlfriend into making the weekend.

I have some amazingly similar pictures from 7 years ago of my Gasser getting cleaned and built.

I second the "set the parking brake and crawl under to manually shift it" Idea. There are sereral connections between your hand and the transmission that could have come loose. Look in the -20P to see how all the parts go together. It is really very simple once you lay there and look at it...

Besides the obvious ujoints already mentioned. Check the crossmember holding the transmisison/tcase and everything associated with the mount for them. Somebody already mentioned tcase mount, but that could be the actual bolt together part or the rubber mount to the cross member. Check both...

The actual truth behind the shade lined roads is Napoleon had the trees planted so his army could march in the shade. The Germans just returned the favor and reversed the flow 3 times over the following 150 years.

6 years ago tomorrow Sermis, Boxcar and myself picked up 4 M35A2's, 3 M105A3's and a M101A2 from Warthog. We had 3 people picking up 4 truck and 4 trailers. Part of the recovery process was the 3 barrels of WMO Sermis allowed us to bring along. My truck always ran pretty good, but has never...

I was at an airshow in Hearne, TX probably 20 years ago now. One of those flew in. The guy let me climb around on it. Very interesting plane. Be neat to have, but a Carbon Cub kit will do the same and cost a bunch less.

If yours is there, getting power but not working. Pull the rubber boot off. Look real close and you will probably find one of the hair thin leads from the plug broken. Very carefully solder it in place is my suggestion. The cold advance solenoid and the fast idle solenoid really do help a...

I have had broken fast idle solenoid operations before. It really doesn't matter much at start up until the outside temp is below 30° or so. The engine will chug, chug some if no throttle is applied. Of course, the colder the air, the worse it will run. Normal summer operations without the...

Colton got his license yesterday. So, now RED is a daily driver for him. That gives me at least 2 MV's leaving the house each morning.
