Nice. I picked up a coolant heater with the control box on Ebay. The heater on my M818 has not fired yet. They fuel pump was disconnected. I need to check fuel flow. I also found that the light on the controller does not turn on even though the box does have power going in. I now need to sit...
RE: Need help figuring out what year my duece is.
Use the serial number on the frame. I would also replace the dash data plate and make it match the frame. It is illegal to remove or alter vin plates but I don't know if your local judge would consider this a vin plate or not. The military did...
Most states that require a title also require scrapers to turn in the title also. Most likely, you just got by or your state does may be an exception. I do know that a lot of scrappers or junk yards ignore the law in this respect. We recently had a problem in Detroit with some towing companies...
I keep all my spare parts and spare fluids for my deuce in the deuce. For the trip to get the M818 I also loaded my whole top tool box and got a few tools from the bottom box also. I figured space was not at a premium. I am lucky as I needed very few of the tools. I only needed enough to pull...

I did pump the brakes while the hatch was open and no problems seen. I plan to park it on gravel and see if she shows any leaks.

It does feel like some shoes may be contaminated. We will see. I am still evaluating to see if I will part it out or fix it. No matter what it is on the back burner until the my cucv is finished.
RE: Re: RE: Looked over the M818. PMCS lacking in an unnamed
I found no evidence of leaking from the outside but I am going to be looking close to see if I am losing it. I have a pressure bleeder and it is perfect for tracking this stuff down. Pump it up then listen and look for the leak. Right...
I reconnected the drive shafts yesterday and decided to drive around to my mother's house. She is two doors down the street. The brake pedal was real low and mushy. I noticed it when I moved the truck to hook up the tow bar. The brakes were an on or off affair going back and forth. The ground is...
We should have a cucv glow plug problems forum. Check the glow plugs. Use a test light with the alligator clip attached to the positive of the front battery. Disconnect the glow plug connector and touch the terminal on the glow plug. If the test light does not light then the glow plug is bad and...
RE: Dot 5
Is the older stuff cheaper or same price? What kind of shipping for two gallons to Dexter, MI 48130? I am down to my last bottle and need some for reserve.
Thanks

My son got a full shelter half tent and now uses it for boy scout camp outs. The last one was pretty cold and he decided to maybe just use it when it is nice out. He also demonstrated how to pitch the thing for one of his merit badge requirements.
I was thinking it was different. I noticed the service valve on the front of the five ton had no shut off valve so I figured it was a one way air movement. The deuce actually was stopping the five ton pretty good before I figured out I forgot to turn my deuce service valve on. From now on I...
