    Keep watching and it will work out. With the heat, today was somewhat brutal, but the people were appreciative.

    Good display today. think we had 11 vehicles there M813A1, M923, M923A1, 2- CUCV, CUCV ambulance, M37, M38, M715, and 2 of the Hemett platized load movers that belonged to the National Guard. Little bit warm in the low to mid 90's, but I think everyone had a good time.

    Sorry we missed. Are you talking about the 181st table? I will put it aside till you get a chance to look at it. I have to sort through my tables and see what I want to keep and part with. I may need that one to go with the M151, that is a HQ 181st truck.

    She told me it was pretty wild. Work in the Operating room all day and go out on the town all night. The Navy nurses had to be single, were well educated and making officers pay. Quite a combination. Despite what they portrayed in the Pearl Harbor movie, it is highly unlikely that there...

    My M880 Thread (pics plus bonus M882)

    Sorry I keyed on the failure to start. Too many variables without a bit more diagnostic. Still sounds like something in the fuel system. Back to the fuel questions, does it have fuel, is it getting fuel, is it getting too much fuel (flooding). Then the variables that go off from that. My...

    My M880 Thread (pics plus bonus M882)

    How long was the truck sitting before the failure to start. Do a search of the threads on loss of prime at the carb. I had that problem, used advice on here, solved it, and now it is back again. If I let the truck sit for week, it loses prime. I also found that I had a bad fuel line that was...

    Was she a Rosie the riveter? She is just about on the bottom of the age range. Peter

    Will pass it on and we will talk before hand about me being there. Once in awhile my wife thinks I need to do house stuff. She isn't very caring and sensitive about that sometimes. P

    PNW-7TH Annual Chehalis River Valley M/V Gathering

    If there is interest, sometime after the parade, we could go to Peter's toy store in Centralia. Never know what treasure you might turn up there. It is probably about 12 miles from Aaron's. 622 N. Tower St., Centralia, WA 98531.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    Thank you for the engineering and tech tips in this thread. I have an 84 M923 with Goodyear 11x20's that are 10 years old with 6,000 miles. I like to run at 50 to 53 for fuel purposes, but the truck will creep to sixty if I am not watching it. The truck proof tested a deer at 50 on the way to...
