I had a truck with a bad gauge and drove it that way for many years. I knew it got 12 MPG so I always made sure I filled up around half a tank. I never pushed it even close to what would have been empty because sometimes it got a little less mileage. I do know how forgetting things goes. I went...

What about the building with the guns? Is that still there and operating? Rick

GMA's website is not very helpful, no products to show. I am assuming you have to call. Rick

Your not still running the glow plugs through the resistor bank are you? How are you running two alternators with 12 volt? Rick

Have you adjusted the shift control on the side of the injection pump? It has been a long time since I worked on one but I remember that is where you adjust the shift points. Rick

What you experienced is exactly why there were so many TB's put out and papers written on how the wheel cylinders MUST be installed correctly. What you have there is especially dangerous because it will lock one real wheel and pull the vehicle around sideways. That WILL be a rollover no matter...

I would love to JP but I already post on 2 M-151 forums, 1 automotive master technician forum, 1 Diesel truck forum plus all the normal stuff associated with a house plus a full time job. There are so many hours in a day! Feel free to send anyone over but don't run afoul of the others on here...

I don't generally post on the 151 board over here but I just happened by. I am usually on the G503 or G838. You have to get those cylinders OUT of that configuration!! NOW!! You can go with 3/4 all around or 1" in front and 3/4 in rear but what you have there is a prelude to a crash since the...

OK, Got the new tank and a switch and put new filters in and it runs.:beer: Volt meter is flaky but I verified the voltages with a VOM and it holds rock steady at 120-240. Tomorrow I will change the oil and filter again since it was so dirty and then let it run for a couple of hours to flush...

I can tell you that if the fluid is dirty then the trans is toast. An automatic transmission is a sealed unit so there is no way for dirt or contaminates to get in there, short of running it underwater and that will end the same way. If the fluid is dark it is from burnt clutch material. There...

OK, I got creative with jumper wires and verified that the engine runs good. Now I don't feel so iffy about spending money on it. I see where Kip just got a new job so that probably explains why I can't get hold of him. Does anyone know a good solution for cleaning the filter bowls and other...

Thanks guys I want to thank those that have offered to help me out and I will get back tp you all. I seem to have run afoul of normal practice here and I am getting people in trouble. Not my intention at all. I will see what I can find elswhere. Thanks. Rick

Sorry, I am new to loking for parts over here. Tried the classified's with no luck. PM's it is. Rick

Lance, the stand consists of two ends so there is no leverage. The two ends are connected by pipes at the base of each end. Rick

Paypal works for me, what is your paypal address? If you put the money in as a gift and not for a sale item then they do not take anything out. Rick

I think 25 is fair as long as it has the nut to hold it to the panel and the screws for the wires. I really have nothing to trade since I am a M-151 guy. I figure I can find some sort of knob at Radio Shack. I was waiting for Kipman to respond to my pm and see if he had a complete one off of a...

PM sent. Rick

I agree but I am not even sure this thing runs yet so I don't want to dump a ton of money into it and find out it does not run.

Derf, Thanks for the line on the tank, I am probably going to get it. It looks like your switch might be the same. what do you want for it? Delk's wants 150.00 for a tank and 75.00 for a switch. I think that is rather high for a switch even if it is NOS. Doghead, How did you get a used one? Ask...

I have found that if you put never seize on the outside of the cups they will slide in much easier. Rick
