    But only on the outside! Put that stuff on the inside and you will be looking through 'thick fog' at any hint of moisture!

    New to 5 ton what is the model of this one

    Bubbles are generally a sign of air getting into the fuel system. Sounds like something is just a smidgen loose and opens up as it gets warm, allowing air into the system. Check all the fuel lines and connectors when it is warmed up.

    One trick for 'air conditioning' in a deuce is to block the front window open about 3 inches and roll up the door windows. Air will be pulled in over the hood and pushed out down around the floor and the back of the cab, keeping the engine heat out of the cab. Wear goggles over your eyes or...

    Memorial Day 31 May 2021

    Aiken, SC had their USMC sponsored Memorial Day Parade on Saturday, MVCSC had eight vehicles in the parade. Smallest was the Mechanical Mule, largest was a 5 ton Tractor, with my deuce, an M37, a HMMWV, a couple of jeeps and a 'fast attack vehicle' prototype.

    M116A3 - VA Title & Registration, Insurance question

    U-Haul trailers have plates from all over, being pulled by 'local' vehicles and they don't get stopped. That could be a violation of the Interstate Commerce Clause on the Federal level. The Fed's can be a bull in a china shop when 'their' rules are violated by state minions.

    Where to find a complete, working RT-524

    Last time I looked Pvt. Jarhead was out of business. I got a couple of 524's from him many years ago. Never did install them and now I'm starting to downsize my fleet. It will be a biotch to get to them in the CONEX. Do you have all the related gear to actually install them? Radio mount...

    ⁸What causes under voltage error in MEP-805B? Sometimes it runs fine, but ultimately will show this errer and stop generating. Seems to heal itsel

    AMPS is the question, you have been giving us VOLTS. A 30 KW generator is only going to put out 300 AMPS total and to be balanced that needs to be about 100 amps on each circuit (plus or minus 10-15 amps). If they are not balanced, the generator controls shut down the whole thing to protect...

    M35A2 Cylinder Liners - Type "Y"

    Ah Ha! The marking is on the block itself, not the cylinder liner! A long time ago a number of people got lots (usually of 9 if I recall) of them at a GL auction of LDS piston sets (piston, sleeve and oiler), but I did not think any of them had a mark to indicate the size. People who have...

    Members in Northern Virginia?

    It is a 440 mile one way trip for me to attend, and less than a fourth of that for you NOVA folks, so come on out and enjoy the company of your fellow MV enthusiasts, ride some off-road trails, and eat some of the best BBQ in the south!

    What is this interesting looking HMMWV test or training item?

    I think it is probably a training aid for the troubleshooters (former mechanics, now computer sleuths).

    Questions / discussion about General Mechanic's Tool Kit

    You need to do a search for the term used here, which is GMTK, they were made (put together by really) by Kipper Tool among others. You should be able to find many threads discussing them that way. They do NOT have any impact tools (or powered tools in general). There were a large number of...

    Frustrating - EUC approved today, and govplanet.com is down all day

    Apparently they are not the only ones down - I cannot get to Google, Amazon, or e-bay. Glad Steelsoldiers is here!

    Obtaining an eastern european APC is hard here in the US. I just want one!

    I know of a local girl who was putting her OT-90 up for sale. Don't know if it is the same one, but I know she had it running.
