I found some time to look at this further. It appears the black wire that powers the pump shorts to ground if you move it just a little. As you see in the photo, the mesh wire is broken were it bends to go into the tank. Anyone know if that black wire can be repaired of if that wire even...

I recently performed fuel filter replacements on all my fuel filters. After changing them the truck would not start. I found the lift pump fuse blown. I replaced the fuse and it blew again. I took the pump out of the tank to troubleshoot. I submerged the pump in a bucket of diesel and...

So the small end of it goes into the springs and then the plug last?

It is item 16, the oring between the halves.

I am just about done with the rebuild but nobody seems to know anything about the oring between the two big piston halves. It looks beveled. The kit did not come with it either.

I ordered and received my rebuild kit. I am starting to disassemble now. So far I see nothing out of the ordinary. What normally goes wrong with these airpaks? A particular oring? All I know is brake fluid is blasting out the firewall vent line and the PS article said it was a symptom of airpak...

Hi all. I'm rebuilding my airpack and noticed teflon tape on the threads of all the non-compression fittings. Is that the best idea or should I use a liquid thread sealant?

I am confused. The one on the right is my Deuce. :confused:

The article I posted is the same one you mentioned. "Multifuel 2.5 ton". It is for Deuce. Where did you see HMMWV?

I am trying to validate my heater hoses against the PS article below. Is my top hose where it should be? I can't really tell from the quality of the picture.

Anyone have any thoughts on using "non-detergent" 10W new motor oil instead of 2-cycle for the added lubrication to diesel fuel in the Deuce? The reason I ask it that a local store has the 10W and 20W for less than 2-cycle oil and diesel fuel for that matter. Serious sale I guess. (e.g...

When it gets warm beyond the possibility of ice I will see if it goes off. I drain tanks after driving.

Went out to see how the Deuce would start in our first cold weather here in the south this morning. Started perfect with a few more turns than usual but 3-5 seconds total with no assistantance. I went back inside to let it warm up and when I came back out air pressure was normal but low air...

Start at post #117 in the link I gave. He begins describing the vent lines ,etc. and pictures follow in the next few posts. I don't want to leave you hanging....

Sorry. Here it is. #118
