Thanks! However its the one TM that's not in the manual section. At least I don't feel too stupid for not being able to find it.

What's the purpose of the RTV? Are you looking for it to seal around the metal or to keep it in place?

I just looked over all the maintenance manuals and can't find the procedures for replacing the rear main seal. Anyone know the manual number and page where the procedure is located?

I would call and ask if you can swap the batteries out.

I seen this on another board and obviously this guy isn't a member here. I thought someone in the area might be able to help this fellow out. I did recommend that he post over here but I'm sure in the stress and frustration of being broke down he just wants to get it going again...

This is the civilian model that works. You'll have to change your fuel line going in because this one uses a hose clamp unlike the original. I've been running this for a year now and I have had no problems. http://www.autozone.com/external-engine/fuel-pump/airtex-fuel-pump/195693_0_0/

Ditto on the red top Optima. No more issues dealing with lead acid batteries. Eventually my entire fleet will be Optima.

I never seen a data plate like that one.

Nope, it came out of Fairchild AFB in Spokane.

Mine is a 1989 and it came with a hard top.

I figured someone would point out the fact that even a new seal can be bad so I just stated it before the fact. I have no problem with surplus seals but as I stated it depends on how they have been stored is the question. Anyway, I got a deal on a couple surplus seals that have good dates.

I think it depends on the location. I bought mine a few years ago from a batch of trucks sold out of Fairchild AFB in Spokane and all of them had hard tops. Also his interior is paint desert sand so if it went over to the sand box they most likely dumped the hardtop for a soft top.

Thanks this is what I need to know. As far as surplus seals, the only issue is how they are being stored. The shelf life on these type of seals is 15 years but can be longer if stored properly. However, a new seal can fail just as fast as a NOS seal.

Already asked a vendor and if its available at any other place than it must be under a different part number because I haven't found it anywhere else. This must be why $50 bucks is the going rate.

Yea but the problem is not knowing the age of the surplus seals.

So either of these part numbers, 10951177 or 476801HAR, will work?

Are there any new production seals being manufactured at this time? I'd hate to go through the work of changing the seal only to have it leak because the NOS seal I put in there is over 10 years old.

Let see if I can explain myself better. I wasn't asking about adding IP/GP to have interaction with the company. My thought was in the "Government Liquidation/DRMO/GSA" section to add IP/GP to the header. In the section titled "Suggestions", add IP/GP to the narrative. Finally, in the "...

Since Iron Planet (IP) took over the rolling stock from Gov. Liquidators (GL), has it been discussed or mentioned about adding an IP section within the discussion section that GL is in?

I would suggest after you get it running to check your oil. The rubber diaphragms in the fuel pumps don't like ethanol. Since its been sitting your fuel pump diaphragm can be leaking fuel into your oil pan. I'm not suggesting this is your issue with it dying, just a word of advice after you get...
