What is it about the NHC250 fuel system that makes running WMO a bad idea? I've been collecting WMO for a while, but now that I'm replacing my multifuel trucks with M939 series trucks I'm wondering if I will have any use for the stuff. If it is OK to run WMO in a 6.2 then I might try it in a...

I often use adhesive-lined heat shrink tubing to protect splices such as repairs on damaged MV wiring. It has a layer of hot melt glue on the inside which helps seal the joint. I usually get my heat shrink tubing from McMaster-Carr. They have a wide selection of different types. They also carry...

Can you share a link and/or picture of what you got?

I found references to those Check 6 lights recently when I was looking around for ideas for a reverse gear camera for my M923. I eventually settled on a commercial-grade reverse camera system which I will install under the bed somewhere (hopefully providing a view of the pintle to make hitching...

That's the place. It even looks amazing from the air, doesn't it? I don't think you can just show up and walk in, though. As I recall, somebody had to make special arrangements with the owner for our group trip, and the yard normally isn't open to the public.

Not only that, but it goes to a residential address, not the surplus yard that this 5 year old thread is about. What was your point, blisters13?

If you have an air compressor, then maybe you can repressurize the system with the engine off to see if the bubbles come back.

I had blown head gaskets in my HMMWV many years ago. As it turned out, the heads were also cracked. And I found the problem 250 miles from home. So, it could be worse! One complication that confused the heck out of both the mechanic I hired and me was that my surge tank was foaming up so...

That sounds like symptoms of a blown head gasket to me. :(

Maybe a sliding seal in the front axle engagement cylinder took a set and leaked, and then sealed back up after some use? I hope that mine has a self-fixing leak, too.

By the way, the AM-65 is also an interphone amplifier, filling the same role as the VIC-1 did in later systems. The AM-65 can be used by itself without the RT-70, with or without other radios. There were many different sets that included the AM-65. Here is a summary of most of those sets that I...

That radio could either be part of a larger system such as the AN/GRC-3 through AN/GRC-8 sets, or it could be used alone. The one in your picture looks like it has the correct mounting base for a standalone installation. As mentioned above, look inside the AM-65 to see which plug-in power supply...

I chose M939-series trucks for my recent purchases because the automatic transmission and true air brakes were features that I wanted. Based on the trucks I've seen coming through GL lately over here on the west coast and the budget that you stated, I think you will be able to put a very nice...

I recently got an M936A1 medium wrecker through GL: a. serial number C53600964 b. registration number unknown c. NSN 2320012064074 d. Bought in GL event 10923, lot 8125, from Barstow, CA site. e. No bumper numbers present Other info from GL listing: DTID: SZ31292080D824 NSN in GL listing is...

I may have a similar problem in my M923. On Saturday I moved the air valve on the transfer case to disable automatic engagement of the front axle in low range (photos and description are in another thread), and I temporarily disconnected the air line from that valve leading up towards the cab...

For the rubber that goes around the rectangular hole that the hoses pass through, McMaster-Carr might have it. Edited to add: Try searching for "trim molding" there. I see stuff that looks similar to the stuff on my wreckers.

I think you should buy a nice M923A1 from GL, and then trade tires and wheels with me! ;) P.S.: And the speedo gear, too, of course.

I wouldn't call it much of a mod. I just cut pieces of the cheap Harbor Freight foam garage floor mats to size and stuck them in the bottom of the regular tool boxes on my M923. Those boxes are similar to the one on the deuce; not watertight at all. They are the normal boxes for that model of...

I used some of that interlocking stuff (from Harbor Freight, though) in the toolboxes on my M923 to keep stuff from banging around as much. I also just got some of the webbed plastic sleeving that's often used to protect things like large drill bits in shipment, and I started putting it around...
