Dave, you're having all the fun.
I guess that after the hosting job you've done ...
you No Longer Qualify as a Newbie.
You've more than earned your status.
Well Done, Brother!

You might want to read how to post pics ... do a search.... all things will be made almost plain.
We want to see your truck in it's current state.
There are a couple of adicts of the Great Green Laughing Academy who check in, from now and then who are quite familiar with that series of...
Ask the guys at Alfa Heaven. They know the tricks. Memphis Equip might still have an old wrench hanging around, I could make suggestions, but talk to the smart guys!
Pull your fuel pump. You probably have a bad gasket.
As for cutting out on idle, plugged jets, float valves .....
Report back and post pics.
The old rubber does not like sitting, and the Ethanol (current) fuels, eats older rubber.
Pictures, of the truck, power plant and all Data...

Quick question .... Who was looking for a gas tank? I found an NOS one, and the guy is downsizing to M37 only.

We know where to find parts, so don't panic.
Report back when you own it!
You want an M35 multi fuel.
The M211 is a great truck, but there is no way I would use it as a reliable utility vehicle.
You have a chance at a great parade and weekend vehicle, probably at a stupid price, depending on condition.
Post some pics, and we can probably give you a better idea...
For the glow plugs, just do what my old Land Cruiser had.
A Momentary ON switch will be more than enough.
If you can't count to 5 "Steamboats" before releasing the toggle switch,
you should not drive anything more complicated than a Toyota Tercell!
That is why the smart folks live on the Left Coast! There is still a Beer waiting for Digger Dave at the Legion.
Gun Freak, If you make it up here, I think that I can stand one for you too!
