    Identifying cut wires under dash - M1165A1 REV

    Thanks, I knew they were on the site, but could not remember where. One of the 'advantages' of old age.

    Identifying cut wires under dash - M1165A1 REV

    Look for wire numbers near the ends. All military vehicles and trailers use the same wire number for the same function. Somewhere in the past, the full table of wire numbers was posted on this site. Hopefully a copy of that table is in the TM Library section.

    Fuel density compensator question

    FDC is prone to leaking fuel into the engine oil, and not just a little drip either. That dilutes the lubrication of critical engine parts and leads to engine failure if not caught in time. It was one of those 'nice in theory, p---poor in practice' ideas. The concept was that GI's could use a...

    D Turbo

    If you don't have the two types side by side for a comparison I'll go with a natural loss of hearing due to age (whether the loss is in the turbo or the listener remains to be determined).

    D Turbo

    I remember when Mitch came over to drop off some stuff. I could hear his C turbo spool up as he turned into the neighborhood, half a mile away.

    Link and search

    If you are looking for info on the deuce engine, you should first download the engine TM in the deuce section of the Technical Manuals group of posts. Read through that, then post specific questions on what you need to be doing.

    I'm glad all three units are getting used!

    Milton after action

    003 still running well? I need to test mine out. Depending on how you heat, it could be your best bet this winter.

    Milton after action

    Two is good, three is great! I was in western NC during Helene (at a conference - long story), but at home have one MEP-003a and 100 gallons of diesel, a 5kw commercial gasoline/propane generator, a little 2200 watt luggable generator that runs on non-ethanol gas, and two 20 pound propane...

    Dave was a character, in a good way! He will be missed by those who knew him! Rest in Peace my friend.

    Hurricane Helene

    Yes, Tim and his family are OK, but the store got about three feet of water in it and they are trying to dry everything out. He is on FB and has posted pictures there.

    Hurricane Helene

    Hugo in 89 was a big storm, dumping 11 inches of rain on Toronto, Canada and finally disapating at the Arctic circle! I was in Saluda, NC for a conference from Thursday through Sunday afternoon. My house suffered no apparent damages, but the power went out around 3 Friday morning and was...

    Pair of 1968 M36a2

    M-36's complete are worth at least one and a half more than an M-35 in similar condition. So, you could get three M-35's for what you have. They are less than 25,000 gross weight, so no CDL required (nationally - Kalifornia is probably worse). They are your trucks, but if you bob them you...

    Model 28 Teletype

    Now to remember the guy in Texas, or search for one of his posts. But he is probably working in the motorpool in the sky by now. That fellow was in the Texas State Guard.

    Model 28 Teletype

    Long ago there was a guy in Texas that had a full comm setup in a shop van. Can't think of his name at the moment. He may have been the one that originally posted "Sarges Katrina Story". Then there is our buddy in Tenn. that has the Unimog Radio setup - he used to come to the GA Rally, and...

    Load testing MEP 803 A help

    A LOAD IS A LOAD! But, your wire had better be able to handle 50-75 amps on each of those legs. Probably easier to have four 12 ga wires on each leg, each with one outlet, lest the 'magic smoke' make everything for naught.
