I find that I can maintain speed better if I shift the transmission manually in the M927 when pulling hills.
I'd check all the adjustments and the fluid change might be an option.
Is there an Allison repair shop close by that can give you some insight?
When I was in Germany I went to a lot of sites that still had fighting emplacements and in a few locations you could still see battle damage. I would look at them and wonder how it was there when WWII was going on.
The Kaserne I was stationed at had several underground levels that had been...
If you are that close preview the trucks.
As stated above the deuce supply is getting thin.....a lot of units waited to turn in the junkers so they did not have to turn them in with BII and in running condition.
A lot of the equipment in the LA National Guard and local Army Reserve units...

MOGAS..........gasoline (so named because it cost MO than diesel :D)
Diesel fuel......diesel fuel, will run most military vehicles and equipment.
JP-anything....aircraft or turbine engine fuel....can be used in diesels but needs additional lube.
Bio-fuel.........so called "Green fuel"...
The article says they are being shipped to Redstone. I would have thought they would have been sent to Fort Rucker since that is where the Army trains chopper pilots.
They better lock them up good.......I go to Redstone a lot with truck and trailerrofl
In theory all items made to the same gooberment specs should be identical....in practice it ain't necessarily so.
Never forget that most of what you buy surplus was made by the lowest bidder.:roll:
