    Strange road speed-related air puffing sound

    I know you guys say tire but how about air dryer blow off valve sticking or cycle too much. It would vary depending on rpm but could seem road speed. More rpm (road speed) more cycling less rpm ( slowing down road speed) less cycling. My 2 cents.

    Eastern surplus and supply to nor cal

    Make sure Dave throws in a couple spare tires for the trip home. Remember they are surplus trucks, so they don't get driven and sit on the lot until someone buys them too. Even thou they go over them before you pick them up. One of the other members here bought a m820 without the box from there...

    PT Pump Adjustments

    I did a lot of searching and could not seem to find one source for all the information I was looking for about adding a second fuel line on my 5 ton or how to increase the fuel to my truck. Now, before everyone gets in a huff about turning up the fuel and how that's going to kill the motor and I...

    M939 Tie Rod Ends

    I'm pretty sure that ain't suppose to do that. It look like the stud has separate from the ball should be all one pieces. When you move the stud the ball should move right a way with stud. Simp will know better thou.

    Seeking Advice on Replacing HH O-Rings in the Truck

    If the mating surface between the line and the head has any defect or crap there, you are going to have a leak. Considering the pressure, the slightest defect and the fuel will push by or through it. Also When you started it back up you could of push the sludge through the line up to injector...

    No brake pedal pressure after bleeding brakes.

    I'm not trying to be rude here, but Are you opening the bleeder than pushing the pedal all the way down than closing the bleeder BEFORE YOU RELEASE THE BRAKE PEDAL BACK UP OFF THE FLOOR? If you don't close the bleeder valve before releasing the brake pedal you suck air back into the system and...

Not a bad engine but hybrid unit does must of the work up to 20 mph that's were they blend the engine in at. So if you are just riding...

    pros and cons to owning an LMTV vs a M35a3

    Great to hear you got the a3. If you need 395s, message Simp5782, he got a ton of them and would probably deliver them too. Since you got the a3, I saw derrickl112 has a core at1545 for sell in classifieds too. That way you have one to rebuild and put on the shelve. Good luck with it.

    New M998 Owner - White-Blue Smoke

    If you have the ability, when you do your glow plugs pull the injector out and clean them up and pop test them. To see that they pop off at right pressure and they don't leak down ( drip ). If they drip or don't spray right, they will leak down over night and put excessive fuel in cylinder for...

    pros and cons to owning an LMTV vs a M35a3

    I would like to mention the a3 doesn't have overdrive so speed is limited. Unless you scream that cat. Plan on adding 395s if you want a little more speed at less rpms. I do like the look of the a3 better than lmtv but I'm a a2 guy. You could always put a/c in a3 too but pricey. When in doubt go...
