I have parts kits and all that, but I have been trying to figure out the best grease to repack everything with and not seeing a lot of...

    New Owner!

    Hi guys, I am now the new owner of an M35A3! Picked it up Friday and pulled my MKT about 100 miles to there new home. Now that I have it, I know it needs some TLC as it has some gauges that do not work and I suspect I am going to need to dig into the air system and rebuild the air pack. The...

    Yes you have to have an electrical connection to the burners to make them function at least on the MBU 's and newer units. They use a 24v DC power supply that has a special set of power cables. The MKT has 4 burners on one side for the griddle and stove tops and two burners on the other side...

    We looked at that on the power supply. I think we will be okay running a few of the burners but honestly I am expecting to have to get at least one more power supply. At 85.00 I can afford to do that. If I tried to locate the issued Teleflex supply I would be looking at 300.00 to 400.00 if not...
