Thank you doghead for taking over on this leg of their journey. I got a message from Don and Jackie while I was getting out of church that someone is there with them now working on the HH. I have never heard of one of these set screws leaking. Looks like there is one more thing for me to add...

Just talked to him again. He said the truck is running, just a good spray of fule around from that allen screw. I gave him an idea for a quick field fix that just might work. He is taking a large hose clamp and a small piece of rubber. Putting the clamp around the entire HH with a piece of...

Just got a call from Don. They are at the first rest area in PA from OH and the truck seems to be leaking fuel from one of the plugs on the side of the HH. I have never heard of one of these loosening up but that's where he thinks it's coming from. He is going to attempt to tighten it now and...

Now there is a story I'd like to hear some day.

Morning update. As of 6:30 am EST they were up and running again. I will once again post updates as they come in.

Dozer1, If you look at my album you will see how the back of mine used to be set up. Complete with the hunter heater.

Final update of the night they are stopped for the night at exit 156 off I90 around Cleaveland. Turns out Don just didn't have it in him to make the trip in one day. I tried to warn him the box seat would suck the lifeout of him. So far the truck is running real good. One fuel line leaking...

I had the same thing on mine and have recovered a few for others with them. They were built by the motorpool and I'm sure if someone tried hard enough tosave one it could be reinstalled. They raise the stays and bow by running a screw through the stay so it can't slide down in the stake. Then...

As of 16:00 central Don and Jackie have made it to Toledo, OH. Jackie told me now the truck is running great and sounds real nice when it idles. Sounds like all the cob webs are being worked out of it as they go along. Jackie thinks Don will be trying to make it all the way home tonight yet...

Just got an update call from Jackie, they have just crossed into IN. Everything seems to be running fine with the exception of a very small fuel drip. I suppose it's to be expected whn the old girl strechers her legs for the first time in over 3 years. This was one of the deuces that sat in...

These were taken back when I first got it to the shop. Sorry I don't have any of the truck with it's proud owner.

The TM calls for 15W40 not 10wt. After reading some A3 tranny threads it seems to be the best way to go. Some have had luck switching to a normal trans fluid as recomended by Alison. However, many more seem tohave problems soon after switching. I'm sure as with everything there is a " best...

Well Don got a bit of a late start today. Helped along by a "shimmy" in the rear end. Now I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and in this case he made it back to the shop just in time for the plug at the endof the T off the HH to fall out. So we fixed the fuel leak and...

Frank, You are still welcome as long as I can have a ride in that pursuit vehicle.

New member DonaldB came today to pick up his deuce that I picked up from Ft McCoy a few weeks back. I have changed the oil, replaced the air compressor, installed all new fuel filters, field patched a fuel leak, replaced the master cylinder and replaced one wheel cylinder. Now it is up to him...

I want him to put the link to that video back in his sig line.

I think a new thread is in order from you. Complete with lots of pictures.

Hmmm, you may be right. I have one off at the moment I will have to go look.

The only screen in the system is inside the tank on the electric pump. After that it is just the three filters. If you have flow to the injectors it may be possible that you have a plugged injector. I would drain the tank and run a clean tank of dino diesel through it with a good amount of an...
