    Fuel leak woes

    Yeah I bought new hose, sleeves, and inserts. The two lines from the filters to the HH and the injector return to the IP had the inserts in them. But I will check them all though. Appreciate the advice guys!

    What's your Deuces' name?

    The Busted Knuckle. Considering renaming it to the Leaky Dinghy. It's got more leaks than the State Department.

    Remote Brake Fluid Reservoir

    Some of the kits I've seen include a cap for the vent tube. From what I can gather, the master cylinder vent line can terminate in a couple of different places. One of which could be the fuel vent line (which is bad.) I intend to remove mine from wherever it terminates if I can get to it...

    Fuel leak woes

    That makes sense. Well let's hope I'm not pulling it apart again tonight. This is going to bug me until I see it running (well) again. Appreciate you guys teaching me stuff. There's a lot in the TMs, but there's a LOT that's not in the TMs.

    Fuel leak woes

    HH is back in with new o rings. The ports where the lines attach were rusty and dirty. I attached a brass 12ga shotgun bore brush to my drill and cleaned them up. Washed them out with carburetor spray. Still need to do a few odds and ends but that'll have to wait for tomorrow after work...

    Which way does the jackshaft turn?

    When the transmission is in a forward gear, which way does the jackshaft turn? Trying to figure out which way to turn it so that I'm turning the engine the direction it goes in when it's running.

    Valence's M66 Gun Ring

    Mother's day is coming up. I think the war department needs a gun ring.

    Removing, rebuilding, reinstalling Hydraulic Head

    That's what I'ma gonna do. The TM calls for a gasket .020 thick, which is a replacement for one .031 thick.. So I'm buying some 1/32 Karropak from o'Reilly. It also calls for the equivalent of Permatex #3 gasket sealer. But I want to be able to get it apart again, so I'm going with something...

    Valence's M66 Gun Ring

    After reading this thread, I've come to the conclusion that the Busted Knuckle is going to have to have a gun ring. Which means a hard top, I imagine. The War Department is not going to be happy about this. You guys are a bad influence.

    Looking for a 2nd spare tire location...

    Looks awful. Why not under the pioneer rack? Argh.... Reading comprehension fail. "additional"!

    Removing, rebuilding, reinstalling Hydraulic Head

    The gasket for the fuel shutoff cover (I think it's official name might be the timing window cover) looks like some kind of wire mesh. Mine needs replacing (broke). What material do you guys use for those? It looks like I could get one from Oshkosh but I'd rather not pay 10 bucks +...

    Fuel leak woes

    So I got the hh off... Quite the adventure. Mine wouldn't come out with the red/scored tooth lined up with the mark. So I experimented and finally got it out by moving the red tooth just forward of the mark, so the mark was pointing at the valley just behind the red tooth. My soldier b...

    I'm too scared... That crud may be all that's holding the busted knuckle together!

    All Deuced-Up and Ready to Go: Looking to Single Out

    The 11.00R20s are 43" tall, right? (I'm dumb about tires, is that the same as 1100r20?)

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I'm guessing it's not supposed to look like that... Water? Or just old.

    Fuel leak woes

    So I got home, unbolted the heater and got it out of the way, marked and removed the injector lines from the hh.. and it dumped down rain. Covered the hh and buttoned her up till tomorrow. [emoji35]

    thinking of buying second mv

    LOL asking the mv addicts whether to buy another mv or not may not result in the most unbiased of opinions! (If it was me and my deuce didn't need anything major, heck yeah I'd buy it!)
