How much did it run ya?

Driving my M1009 this weekend and had a new issue come up. Any time I am accelerating and let off the pedal immediately rather then gently letting off of it the engine stalls and dies. This does not happen at speed but when I am in first gear or going under about 35 mph. If I baby the pedal...

PM me because I wanted to see if you could inspect some items for me.

Thinking about redoing a “restoration” of mine. In 2009 I purchased a 1952 M38A1 that has never been restored. After its service in the military it was assigned to the Civil Defense Force and painted orange. It was given to the university of Nebraska forest service department in 1974, at...
