I got her to fire up and runs nice. Good oil pressure and doesn't skip a beat. I have air leaks to tend to, bad tire, check all other fluids, and replace the gear selector from being baked in the sun for 25 years. She may just crawl out of her grave like a champ.
She did just that today. I replaced the transmission push button selector, pushed fluids as needed, and let her warm up slowly. The transmission needed more fluid in the last video so it was a little sluggish. Both rear left tires fragmented on the idle across the motor pool to no ones surprise. 28 years old.. they've served their time.
Overall she sounds healthy and throttle is responsive. All gauges are in operational ranges and CTIS tried to work. It sounds very much like the M35A3 CTIS. There's still a lot to do on her and air leaks to track down. It's just a game of time and patience until she's able to get on the road again if even for a short run.
