    M998 Issue

    Today I noticed a click cycling noise from M998. With the start switch in the off position. It sounds Like the same clicking noise when the glow plugs cycle before startup. Any ideas? Has anyone had this issue? I've unhooked the batteries until I track this down.

    ROMNEY WV

    RE: Romney WV That's a nice BIG green truck.... I'll check around to see if anyone has something bigger than my deuce to help you get it. Will it need to be hauled or could it be flat toed? I know a guy in Buckhannon who has the right stuff but if he has time is the question.

    Eastern surplus

    I bought my 1971 M35a2 from him. Then 6 or 7 months past and the transfer went out in the truck. I called him and he told me to come up and he would make it right. So we drove up and he let me have a tested takeout for only $150.00 . He Is A good guy to do business with... I recommend him 100%..
