New question related to this one, what activates the air cylinder? Is there a switch somewhere that I am missing?

Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Some pics of it when I got it home are here... I need to do a little more cleaning up before I get more pics for Gulfway. Pics are at the bottom of page 1 and top of page 2bulldog_mack13 said:Joe , let me see your Reo , i never saw it in person
I would take it to them and tell them if it is not fixed properly this time that it will not be brought back and you will be asking for a refund and or doing write ups online about the bad service.My 1st post so I hope this werks...
First let me say thanks to all that started and contributed to this post. It's been very informative and helpful.
Here's a picture of my rebuilt M816 pump. The company that did the rebuild said that they can only allow for one cam/lever to turn but not both? I didn't realize this until I got this IP back in the truck and fully hooked up. They left the upper cam free to move but locked the bottom completely.
At this point I have to take this IP back down to them and have them make both top and bottom cams/levers move freely so I can have all the controls work for throttles, govenor etc...
Has anyone had a rebuilder tell them this and why are they saying it's not possible to run both? Do i just tell them they are not dealing with a cargo type pump but rather an ""mvs"" type pump. This pretty much sucks right now so any help GREATLY appreciated.
ps.... also looking for a crane hook/pulley. My M816 was kinda stripped of all tools, tow bars and that pulley. Thanks!
Quite interested in your winch problem! The clutch handle on my winch is stuck in the "IN" position and won't move at all. Like yours, looks like it was overwound, actually broke the right side roller off, and bent the bumper inward. Trying to figure what I will have to do. The winch can be operated from inside the cab, but not on the outside. Could use some advice from you or anyone else who may have an answer.Just picked up a summer project of an M816 to work on and found this old thread that seems to apply to part of what's in front of me ( http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=13054) Going through the fuel system now and replacing the old hoses and rebuilding the selector valve. I suspect may need to send the pump off for a freshen up. Truck is idling like a champ when it warms up, but it goes to the governer limited rpm of 2100 and is very slow to fall back to idle when you take your foot off of the pedal. Other interesting note is that when you are in neutral and pull the throttle lock in the dash back just two detents, the governer takes it all the way to 2100 rpm. Still have lots of rotation left in the throttle lever on the side of the pump. I'm new to a governed Cummins but it just doesn't seem to be what I would suspect.
Cabell, can I ask you who you used in the area to rebuild your pump and what their prices were like ?
Next question is about the temparture gauge in the dash. Is it the same unit as a deuce or is is specific to the 8xx series. I'm chasing the wiring with a meter this weekend.
Ther will be winch questions in the future, looks like someone wond the front one up like a clock spring and bent some of the cable guidance system.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
