    M939A2 starter system dead short. Any help where to start?

    . Any chance you might look at the ground strap and ground wires? Loose grounding will cause what you describe.

    Refurbishing Data Plates

    . Not really... Trying to print over the old metal would be a real drag. It would require cleaning and in the end would be no better than starting with fresh metal.

    . Guessing maybe you missed it because you were on the nominations thread? They are definitely confusing...

    MEP-804A Voltage issues.

    . Okay then, yes. Dielectric grease put into the contacts should be the trick. Don't glob it in there, just coat it and you should be good to go!

    MEP-804A Voltage issues.

    . There is a spray version of dielectric cleaner. Can't remember the name of the stuff... :-(

    Engine cranks when connecting battery.

    . I can't help but wonder if the truck managed to short circuit the starter wiring... Are you sure something didn't get up against the exhaust and melted off the insulation on the wires connected to the starter?

    MEP-804A Voltage issues.

    . Definitely need to spray down the contacts with contact cleaner. Then manually exercise the contacts, then spray them again, and maybe even one more time for the sake of doing it...

    M929 Questions

    . Yes. Left is the drivers side, Right is the passenger side. In other words - left and right is from the drivers seat.

    . Welcome to the Outfit! There may be some for sale in the For Sale Forum (none available at the moment) https://steelsoldiers.com/forums/vehicles-for-sale.125/ Yeah, running and reliable would be great.

    . Wow! Those are some really sweet looking storage boxes!

    Horsepower

    . Yessir. They are "big truck" brakes. There are two diaphragms in there. If you have a "key slot" on the back of the canister, you need to "cage" the spring. I don't know if I can find a picture or not. I will look though.

    Journey complete, 52 years later...

    . And did you notice that the steam locomotive doesn't have a "high headlamp" ? It had lights down at the roadway - but nothing up high to wake up the automobile drivers...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    . I have heard it called a water buffalo too - but I am thinking we are about the same age...
