    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Our motorpool may be pregnant! We have been looking for a tractor (at a better than excellent price preferred) and recently we were led to an M818 about 100 miles from here that a VFD has as surplus. It's only two years out of an Army rebuild from what they claim, and they have made no...

    Motor nearly cutting out while driving.

    Your symptoms are identical to what we had a few months ago. As soon as the primary fuel filter canister was opened, the problem was obvious. ALGAE ! ! ! Changed the one filter, added SEA FOAM to the fuel tank and SHAZAM ! Problem solved! Fortunately, the in-tank algae was minimal, but the...

    TONGUE INSPECTION ! EVERYBODY check 'em before they FAIL ! ! !

    The first thing that came to mind was "check your mirrors", quickly followed by "safety chains" and pre-trip inspection. I can only imagine that the CHiPs Investigator probably had fun writing some tickets even though there were no collisions occurring. I wonder what the total cost of this...

    Total Brake Failure on my Air over Hydraulic Tacoma

    I suppose I'm the oddball around here. I read and read and READ about Deuces here on the site (and lurked quite a bit) before ever jumping in to ownership. Had I not done that, I would never have been able to start the truck we ended up buying the first time we saw her behind the firehouse she...
