    Marty, Welcome aboard, Don't worry about that valve in your application. As mentioned it's for the T-case control which your not using. Put more permanent plugs in and roll on. Tom

    The Electronic Flasher died from self inflicted short, when while changing fuel filters Last Month and stepping on the lower inner apron, pinching one of the wires to the frame.

    Distributor oil port.

    The civilian Dist had the pop up oil door as shown. Military Dist. had the brass plug for obvious fording reasons. I oil mine at every oil change. Just a few drops will do. It lubes the shaft bushing. Tom

    Battery Tender Setup for a Deuce

    I use one 24V tender resting on the bed frame rail flange. Plugged in to a weather proof 3 wire cord and the other end to the Battery disconnect switch mounted on the battery box. The bed shields it from the weather. Been like that for years. Stop worrying, you'll be fine. Tom

    M37 vapor lock?

    Nice Truck. Some like to use quality rubber line from pump to carb routed over to Inner fender and back to the carb. I used 5/16 steel brake line routed as mentioned on my WDX Power Wagon And fuel hose on the M37 as a temporary fix one year at the rally. Still planning on changing it, but...

    M37 vapor lock?

    Need to have the heat shield as mentioned, above the pump. Typical military and power wagon vendors have nice reproductions available. Moving the fuel line from pump to carb. farther away from the manifold will help. Biggest problem is the manifold preheat stove (butterfly) located between...

    Fuel pump glass bowl. Is there a filter?

    No element that I know of. There should be a screen at the top. That is a civilian pump and there was another glass bowl with filter at the Carb. Earlier carbs had a element inside the carb., later carbs. had the bowl. The correct M37 pump was a dual action pump, meaning pumped fuel and Vacuum...
