Looking back, I should have kept an accurate account of fuel used, but it worked out to approx. 1/2 gal per hour. It was never loaded very heavy, most of the time meter showed about 15%-40% load.
Finally got the power restored yesterday. 180hrs added to the meter during this time. Worked great despite the random miss. Time to go through the fuel system...
Thanks
Located south of Houston area, may have a few more days till power is restored. I currently running a MEP-803, and starting to notice an occasional misfire, which is best I can describe. Does anyone know of anything to look for, or help with keeping this unit going? Its still generating...
I'm working on getting my old m211 running again. For removing the radiator, it looks like all there is to do is unbolt fan shroud and it appears the radiator hangs on bracket which go thru to the front there there are "L" shaped slots. Does it just lift out when the bolts in the slots are...
I'm looking for a windshield frame and glass for my m211. Anyone know what years will interchange? Does it have to be from a M135 or M211, or would ones from like a M35, etc, fit? Thanks
Oh, by the way, if anyone has any driveshafts for sale, I'm looking for driveshafts, D and E, the two coming off the back of the TC. Somebody torched the splined end so they could roll the truck. If I can find the correct splined end, I could reweld in, a new splined end.
Well, looks like everything looks good so far. While under the truck I oiled more of the linkage, while messing with the TC, I noticed the TC lever finally moved up and felt like it engaged in gear. I started the truck and put it gear and it jerked forward a little, but I need to work the...
Thanks for the tips. I do have driveshaft E in. I'll be checking the TC linkage since this truck was sitting for a long time so the linkage is sticking and needing oiling and the TC lever had been sitting in the disengaged position for a long time. Thanks
Heres the story: previous owner removed or torched driveshaft so the truck could be moved. The short drive shaft is in place between transmission and transfer case. The front drive is removed and the driveshaft to the second rear axle is removed. The flat lever on the floor is pulled up...
I have a M211 which is a project and I've never driven it yet. It has one of the rear driveshafts off going to the rear end. I started the truck up but it won't move. I assume the other drive is needed coming from the transfer case. Is this correct? Thanks
I pulled the valve cover and discovered a loose pushrod. I'm surprised to find it wasn't bent. I put it back in and turned the engine by "hand" No stuck valves, everything looked clean. There might be some hope on getting this thing running.
In the picture, you can see loose push rod...
