    Motor Rebuild Data Plate

    If this helps. Figured out that JON = Job Order Number. Looks like it was rebuilt shortly before it was auctioned off in the late 90s

    Motor Rebuild Data Plate

    As I am working on all the little things on my M1038 I noticed that on the valve cover it has an engine rebuild data plate. I have looked high and low for what all the things mean. One line is piston 30 and I assume that means that the cylinders were bored out and have 30 over piston and rings...

    Exhaust Smoke Question

    Working on tracking down some exhaust smoke issues. When I start up I get a little white smoke, research on that seems to be un burnt fuel, maybe glow plugs, not too worried. The one I am worried about is when I accelerate I get a good deal of smoke out. It is not really dark smoke but still...

    Brake light issue. At a loss

    Fixed. Seems that the turn signal lever was bad and to make the newer type of lever to work you have to remove the bulb and put in an LED one. Ahhhhhh thanks for everyone's help.

    Brake light issue. At a loss

    After checking the trailer plug I get 6v there also. Was dark last night so my mistake. I am really at a loss I guess I have to trace it all the way back to the turn signal switch

    6.2L Wait to start light not coming on

    I had the same exact issue and the TSU fixed it. You can plug it in without taking the old one out. You will know in about 30 seconds if it works.

    Brake light issue. At a loss

    Would I still get power to the trailer plug if it was the turn signal switch?

    Brake light issue. At a loss

    Replaced all ground wire ends just to be safe. The stumper here is turn and flashers are bright. Just the brake light function is dim.

    Brake light issue. At a loss

    I am having an issue with my drivers side brake light. The right one works fine but the left one is very dim. I replaced the light switch to start. No luck. I tried 3 different LED tail lights. Same thing. Turn signal works fine. Hazard light works fine. Just the brake light. I tested the...

    Possibly No More Trucks from DLA

    Swiss, this was a one on one as I am friends with our Senator. To sum it up, they know it pissed off many people but the decision to go on selling to the public will not be anything done in the short term. I did pass on that the next step would be to talk about farmers or other groups that are...

    Possibly No More Trucks from DLA

    Update, Currently there will be no decision on selling these to the public, the main goal was to allow Law and Fire fighters to get them. There is more than just the EPA, no sholder belt, no airbags and in many states the bumper and headlights are to high so I know in Delaware they will not...
