Hey explain to me what a inter cooler is and how it works please, I'm trying to learn all I can on these diesels.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_blush.gif" alt="Blush">
I was wondering myself how they get the different Horse Power ratings on the different Deuce Engines. Are some different at the bore and stroke department? Or Just different injectors and pumps, and turbos? <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_big.gif" alt="Big Smile">
Well, I guess I will forget about that whistler for now then, If it cuts back on hourse power and fuel mileage. I already have the weakest diesel I think they make in my truck anyway. Herculeas 134 HP on engine data plate.<img src="emoticons/icon_smilie_bitchin.gif" alt="Bitchin">
Will repaint Deuce some Day after I get rid of the paint build up and some rust. Right now it has 3 Color SARC,I think thats the name of it, thats what is stenciled on the inside of drivers Door.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">
Our sponser did have that outer windshield frame,and she is own her way to my Deuce. I'v been checking all of the sources for MV parts,and I would have to say Saturn is the best priced one I found so far, and I have checked a lot of them.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_jumpin.gif"...
Well I fineally got enough paint scraped off the front and rear differentials to see some dates.<img src="emoticons/icon_smilie_bitchin.gif" alt="Bitchin">
Front;2-21-69
Rear;12-3-69
I was too lazy to check that middle one.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">
So I...
Hey Guys, The fuel line that comes from the primary fuel filter is pinched almost flat in two places under the radiator. Plus the flexible line that comes from the injector pump to that line, has a kink in it. Looks like someone put it on wrong. I'm surprised that the truck runs so good, It may...
Desert Rat, Are the turbo bodys the same size? or is it just the guts inside that make the difference ? Can you just change the insides? I need to study up on this subject, is there a web site that specializes in Deuce turbos??? I have all the info in the archives copied.<img...
Ok Guys, I called Memphis Equipement and asked for a whistling Turbo, I explained that mine didnt whistle and I wanted one that did. The parts man said they all whistle. I tried to explain to him that some dont and some do, 1C &1D. their mechanic said he only knows of one kind and it whistles...
Yes, I will try them first. I just got a NOS windshield glass assembly from them, and it looks good. <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"> I also sent emails out to all MV part sellers for one of those "Whistler" Turbochargers. I done some reading up on the subject in...
Oh Boy, After I got the frame to lay down, I see where Rust has eat up most of the bottom rail. Before I spend half a day emailing and calling, do any of you guys know if that frame can be found as NOS, any place?
What happened to mine was, it rusted from the inside out. looked like watter...
Who sells the Whistling Turbos? New, Rebuilt, or Used? I want one.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"><img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"><img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">
The windshield frame is supposed to fold over flat, sorta like the Jeeps. Right?<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_big.gif" alt="Big Smile">
I cant get mine to lay over, must be froze up. I loosen the big wing nut and loosen the big hex nut on the shaft where it hinges. Is that all you are...
I think mine was done that way so a antique tag could be purchased for it. my bill of sale shows 1966 model. In Mississippi, any vehicle over 30 to 35 years old,qualifys for an antique tag, and you dont have to buy any more after that. I guess all states may have something like that???<img...
Is there any other way of telling who manufactured a Deuce besides the data plate???????
I have a Deuce that says its made by Kaiser Jeep on data plate, and the title says AM General. Vehicle ID # is the same on both.
My truck dont show any year or date is was made either. So I was wondering...
Glad to hear you got her smoothed out. I did frontend work and alignments for 12 years,but never on aything over a 1 ton. From what I discovered most of your steering problems and tire wear useally are caused by the toe in or toe out. A 1/4 to 11/16 degree positive camber is useally normal. When...
What would be good to use on the rubber wireing connections to keep them from deterating? Besides (Armor All), Is there any kind of high Quality silicone, or is there any 100% Silicone presertive. Is there a Silicone Grease that has no petrolium in it? I'll be changing out a few connectors thats...
I havent tried to let mine down yet, but mine has a half curl of extra slack. If that makes sense. Just go get some new hose at your local automotive parts house, and leave a little more slack.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_big.gif" alt="Big Smile">
