You may need to get new batteries. The 24 volt system helps the starter turn over quickly. I was amazed that the starter turns over as fast as my gasoline car does. Any other 12 volt diesel tends to turn over slowly. Also the diesel could be bad. Any idea how old the fuel is? Try adding fresh...

I'm sure it's possible, but I doubt it mixes very well. Seems like the DOT 5 would stay on top and the DOT 3 would sink to the bottom.

That looks great M109guy!

Are you sure about this? My trucks registration number is 04G-23671 which by your numbering means it would be a '71. Carnac ran it through his computer and it came up as a '78. Also the SF-97 form confirmed it was a '78. The serial number (which I haven't posted here) matches the one on the...

CUCV would be perfect, IMO.

Speaking of the master cylinder cap and using a pressure bleeder, I've seen photos here where the bleeder is connected to the top of the master cylinder cap. I don't recall seeing any connection on the top of the cap on my truck. I do have a breather line attached to the side of the cap however...

Thanks for the comments guys. I was under the impression the hose was needed to block air from getting back into the system. At least that's the impression i got from the TM which tells you to submerse the other end of the tube into the fluid. Now that I think about it, this is probably done to...

First off, yes I did search. Couldn't find anything on the site or in the TM's. How much DOT 5 brake fluid do I need to bleed the brakes? I want to change out the old fluid for all new stuff. Since DOT 5 is expensive, I don't want to buy too much, but I want to have enough to get it changed...

Thank you sir!

My passenger side wiper is hecka slow compared to the driver's side wiper. I don't think the wipers were used much since the truck was mainly used in the desert. Should I try to lube the passenger wiper motor, or blast compressed air through the line? Maybe it's partially clogged...

I payed for my truck by bank wire. It's annoying that GL required a CC number even if you are going to pay by cash.

This site rocks! I didn't even realize there was a proper way to tie down the canvas. :-D

Is there a website for that club? I might join up just to avoid missing the next event.

That's an odd price...

Carol at Gulfway called me back this morning. I filled out the forms and am waiting to hear back.

Medeuca looks like a good truck. Congrats on the purchase! It's nice to have a little history on the truck. At least you know her name.

I'm keeping my truck pretty much stock at this moment, but I could see interest in your system. Try building a couple kits and put them up for sale and see what happens.

Retroactive emissions standards? What's wrong with that state?

I called Gulfway this morning to insure my deuce. Still waiting for a call back...

My EUC arrived last night. Couldn't pick it up from the post office until this morning because they required a signature confirmation. Total time from request to arrival was 22 days.
