Replaced the broken parts, but I don't think I have the right o ring. It was dripping fuel pretty good with the cover off. Now the big issue is it doesn't want to idle below 950. If you adjust it down to around 800, it either creeps up on it's own or doesn't recover when you let off the throttle.

Looking at this pic, I'm still missing a part. I need to look under that cover again.

Huge thanks to Gimpy, DH, PA Tracy and especially Floridianson! It turns out I have the super rare, no working governor Deuce. I have it rigged enough to get through the parade and I have a spare motor in back to supply parts.

I've had this deuce over 14 years and it's always just ran as long as it had good batteries and fuel. Run all diesel, very rarely a few quarts of oil (new) if I need to get rid of it. It was fairly active until 2020 when we left SoCal for Nevada. It hauled a full load here and ran great. I...

I'll try to be there.

I'm probably gonna miss this one. Got word a few weeks ago my best friend is sick with cancer. They had to close up his gun shop in SoCal until I hitched my Jeep up behind my cousin Eddie RV and snuck back into California to open it back up for him. I'm trying to return to free America every...

Any time man.

Did you get a tube? I’m leaving tomorrow so if I need tire tools lmk ASAP so I can load them.

2-3 a day until complete.

Im changing out all 10 tires when we get back. I ordered 6 tubes in case something came up during the great tire swap adventure.

I used my last tube on my spare. I have 6 on order but not due in until Friday. Does Parkhouse have a tube they will sell?

No problem. We can knock it out pretty easy in camp if needed.

A split rim is exactly that -a rim that is split in two pieces and bolts together. Super dangerous. The Navy calls the deuce style rims a Demountable Flange type, but I've heard them called split ring or locking ring. Super easy to work on. I taught kids in my boy scout troop how to do them.

Parkhouse used to work on deuce rims. They aren't split rims BTW. Worst case is if you can't find anyone and can make it to camp, I can do it for you. Just LMK before Tuesday so I can load my tire tools.

Several.
