Why not just disconnect it? On my M813 I think it's this doohickey, power lead 85, up underneath the dash, behind the oil pressure gauge. JD disconnected the dang thing before I took delivery of the truck. Now I just have to figure out how to reconnect it before the inspection...oy

Hey, I'm working on my 5 Ton. Troubleshooting the fuel gauge this time, every time I turn on the power the gauge pegs full. So I pulled the float. Now I'm still kind of new to this MV Shtick, but I feel something might be missing... So far this tank has eaten a pickup tube and a fuel...

One of the advertisers on this list has a pretty good classified section. Eastern Surplus and Equipment Co.

Welcome from Massachusetts.

Didn't have any luck with NAPA on my M813 fuel lines, used OMNI Services instead. Think they have locations in Virginia.

Is this the pickup tube in the tank? Had the same problem in my M813. Replaced it with a copper one.

I'm running 2 on my 5 ton, but the first is a water separator.

I cobbled together a wix spin on kit for my 5 ton and have no problems disconnecting the fuel line from the engine, hooking it to the pump and pulling fuel through the filters. Also gives me a stand alone pump for transferring fuel from other sources. With that said I've been contemplating an...

Why not use a fuel transfer pump to pull fuel through the filter instead?

Update; The structures I thought were exhaust ports are exhaust ports and they were clogged. Ran the valve head through an ultrasonic parts washer in cleaning vinegar at 130F and it cleared up my problem. Also found that the WWII Windshield Wiper Repair kit has most of the gaskets necessary...

Would a tent be considered "Inside"?

That's weird, I had no problem insuring my M813 with them. It didn't need to be stored inside and they were really friendly. Included free membership in their classic car club, which came with 100 miles free towing. They only asked the mileage, engine hours, years I've been driving, that it...

The only issue Mass DMV had with my M813 title was the "body type" they don't accept "other" anymore. It seems that three sides and a tailgate make it a Pickup...a ten ton pickup and the old title had white outs and mismatched dates. Still have to pass inspection.

Rebuilding the Trico Filberth wipers on my M813. Scored a couple rebuild kits on evil bay...from WWII. Only need the cylinder gaskets, hope they fit, can't imagine they've changed much. The other surfaces and gaskets look good, the air ports and passages needed cleaning. Think I've figured...

Not negative at all, will likely take your advice once I figure out the hesitation. The goop you see was part of the diagnostics. After replacing the filter, the problem persisted prompting gooping every conceivable air ingress, then I replaced the fuel lines and finally found the culprit after...

Was having problems running my M813, couldn't keep it going without cracking the throttle and then it would stall out. Assumed the issue was air leaking into the large canister filter so I replaced it with a WIX 33528 fuel filter and 33405 Fuel/Water Separator. Problem is the 24770 Filter base...

Oops this is the correct point in the tactical repair video

This is the M813 I bought from JD in September. Been wrenching on her for a few months. Solved some problems, created a few more and although she's not on the road yet, I'm having a blast. But everyone wanted pics so here we go. She started life with the Air Force in Georgia, was transferred...
