Another case where talent and intelligence just didn't quite mesh. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

Another one, Fabricate a stopper for behind the air filter,(goes between the element and the intake pipe). Engine will crank, but not run, worst case is maybe a potential thief will kill your batteries, or toast the starter, but the truck remains.

Does this truck have a universal joint in the steering column? Common trick is inserting a padlock through the center of a u-joint.

Ditto Doghead's advise. I spent a lot of time playing with a bad T-case, and ended with changing it. T-case probably toast long ago, crack= no oil, no oil = bad bearings. Transmission may have reverse gear problem, hard to tell with bad T-case. I like 5 ton dumps, when you get yours together...

" Wow, it looked like they had just changed all the fluids in this thing." Don't be fooled, when vehicles lay aside for some time, the dirt will settle to the bottom of whatever unit you are checking, leaving clean oil on the stick. At the least, pull each drain plug to see if there may be...

cev65, scroll all the way to the bottom of this page, check 'similar threads'.

If loud and obnoxious is what you are after, look no further than an 8-71 detroit, aka 318 detroit. It's hard to kill these old engines, why don't you see if the existing one will start? Lots of garbage trucks, cement mixers and the like ran the 673 mack, parts are available. Big block gas...

One could believe the vehicle in question is a cucv, since this is the forum it which it was posted. The Spirit of this site has changed, what had been a group of individuals genuinely interested in sharing knowledge now comes across as a bunch of pre-adolesent males sharing a foul joke.

That was really helpful, a noob asks for learned advise, and gets a comedy act.

olds diesel made a kick-butt gas engine when converted back, did a few for a circle track car in the late 80's.

From Tanner " I didn't want to stoop down to achieve their level of stupidity." Ditto. Kick a skunk and the stink is on you.

Call a Cat 3406 an 891, people will look at you strange.

Where did you read 6-53 in WM's post, a 318 is an 8-71.

I have had great results with this company. Magnet Paints Catalog + Price List They color match, and prices are very reasonable.

Above post reeks of collusion.

GET A SUPPLIED-AIR RESPIRATOR. That advice needs all caps, yes, I'm yelling. This was said in the body of many of the previous posts, but it needs to stand by itself. If you were close to me I'd let you use mine, and my 300 pound blast tank as well.

Bought a T-case for my M-51, Good price, was given the option of returning said case if not operational. Mrs. Kublo said she could meet me at the exit ramp on rt81 if I thought I needed help finding the place ( but of course, I employed my built-in sense of direction that never fails me, and...

I did not see Gladiator listed, and was then not aware the pans for the GW were similar, thanks.

Okay, seems we are back to square one, as BJ's doesn't show anything for m715. Any good ideas?
