It definitely wasn't dyed diesel lol, but it definitely smelled like a mixture of rat urine and turpentine!!!!

Both of the trucks I bought had orange diesel too, one ran like poop and the other had a stuck HH plunger from it.

I could use one too gimpy, if you happen to have 2 that is.

I got the evap unit installed and wired a few days ago, along with the 12v reducer. Yesterday evening and today I pulled the radiator and built my ac compressor brackets. I did cheat a bit by borrowing the brackets off of my 71 Chevy as a starting point. I got it all worked out with the belt on...

I'm in the process of installing my evaporator unit now, will post up some pics when finished.

Who are you asking about the rust repair on the cowl area?

Right! Pictures , pictures, pictures!!!

If worried about the fuel, take some buckets w/lids with you to drain the tank and filters, then put in 10 gal fresh diesel and some atf. The filters may be funky but as long as you have fuel flow to the secondary filters on the motor they won't keep it from running. I think the drain plug on...

Not bad at all! Looks like you've already started putting her back together, it will make for a nice truck. I'm curious about the tracked armor and artillery in the background?

I installed my led backup lights, used prestolite wire and connectors from eriks. Also ran 8g wire (from eriks) from the starter hot post to a 24v relay and from the relay to a fuse panel for 24v lights/accessories and my 12v voltage reducer that will power the ac system (except the comp...

I know tachs and or speedos may not all read exactly the same but I get 52-53 at 2500 on the stock tires. It's happier at 2400 , I'd hate to hear it at 60 mph with the stockers. I have a set of 395's for it, going to build my plates after getting the ac finished. Do your 395's have run flats in...

55-60 mph at what rpm?

Has anyone else seen this? I've just experienced the same thing, MC had a small leak so we rebuilt using this same kit. We pressure bled the system starting with the MC then the air pack . When we bleed it the pedal gets nice and hard and the travel is the same as before with air pressure built...

Someone needs to go get pics of it! Could it be some commercial box? It appears to have a rub strip down the side like what school buses have?

I'm not familiar with that particular engine, but the rule of thumb for gas engines is 90 psi minimum to run, it may be hard to start (esp a 2 stroke) and probably won't run very well .

I didn't know that, and never even considered checking the tm concerning what I thought was a plain old paper air filter.

Thanks, I think I'll try the Napa or the wix

If the OP is stil around I would like to see where/how the backup lights were mounted.

Is the cfm of the mil spec filter more or less than its commercial counterpart?

I'm keeping a eye on this, keep up the pics, it's inspiring to see such progress. It's looking good you've got A LOT done!!!
