    Ether cylinder, part number

    I had the same question awhile ago and was unable to find the ether canister at any truck parts store including NAPA. I did reach out to KBI for clarification and I will let you know what they say. BTW, my canister has a KBI part number of 020020 which does not exist on their web site. And the...

    TM 10629A-OD TM Operation manual with component list MK-23,25,27,28

    I have one of the paper manuals from the Basic Issue Kit that have been selling lately. I was going to have the manual scanned to a PDF but the cost is more than I was planning on. I want to PDF to be searchable so it would be text and not JPGs of every page. So the manual is about 1,000 pages...

    Oshkosh MK23 family of trucks parts

    Hypecannon and Russ, No luck at all on the horn switch parts. I even went to the local Oshkosh cement mixer dealer and they had a horn part but it did not look correct for the MK23. So I do not have a cap on my truck. I was able to get the horn working and it passed inspection so I guess it...

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    Just a note about this fix. It has been about a year and a half since I sprayed the rubber stuff on my cargo cover and now the rubber has turned hard and is flaking off. So this is not a long lasting fix but for a year it kept the rain out. This time I am trying the clear version of Flexseal to...

    RTV/Silicone

    I agree with Elijah95, every MTVR I have seen has had it and I have seen a lot of 7 Tons. I use a razor blade to careful scrape it off.

    Transmission Temperature Sending Unit - MTVR

    FYI, the ScanGauge I mention in another post shows the Tranny Temp. It would not help if the sensor is bad but it would help confirm that the ECU is not getting any data.

    MTVR turn signal relay?

    I checked the parts list and there is no relay for turn signal. In fact, there are just 4 entries for turn signal and they are all about the switch, handle, light, and cover. Sorry I could not help.

    ScanGauge SGDFFP J1939 & J1708 Vehicle Monitor

    I was looking around on Amazon for stuff and this popped up. I did not know what it was but after reading the description, I thought that would be cool if it worked for my 7 Ton. So I ordered one and hooked it up. IT WORKS!!!!!!!! So now I can see my oil pressure, MPG average, instantaneous...

    Approved Transmission Fluids

    I did change my truck to ATF and it is working great. I did have issues with the 15w-40 during cold weather. By cold weather I mean 0 degrees and below. Btw, the 15w-40 the Marines use is very different than the oil we civilians can get. Sent from my SM-G988U1 using Tapatalk

    Tire Balancing Beads

    I have used the balancing beads in a lot motorcycle tires. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. I do not know why. The beads are expensive and you would need a lot for each tire, maybe $100 worth. Also, the beads do create dust inside the tires as they eat away the inside. Sent from...

    Oil drain valve

    Other studies have shown that it is impossible to get all the oil out of the engine anyway. Even if you drain all the oil you can, there is still a lot in passages, lines, the pump, oil cooler, etc. Plus, you don't want to get all the oil out for obvious reasons.

    Oil drain valve

    The 7 Tons are very different from the 5 and 2.5 tons. There is no comparison. For example, the 7 tons have the engine mounted high and several frame members are below it. The bottom of the engine is very well protected and it is obvious. In fact, it is all the protection that makes changing the...

    Oil drain valve

    The valve has a couple of features to prevent the valve from moving by itself. No safety wire is needed.

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    OH! And I am almost finished with a new home for the 7 Ton. A 30 by 62 foot building. I made it big enough to hold four 7 Tons but now with a bunch of other stuff in there it will only hold two.

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    I changed my engine oil for the first time and when I checked the drain plug magnet is was pretty clean. So that is good news.
