    Go out and drive!!

    I find that my deuce runs much better after about 8-10 miles of driving...about the time the trans gets warmed up. Still wish I had a 5th(OD) gear though :)

    strange "bump" when decelerating quickly

    When I had the civvy version of the 1009 back in the early 90's, that thump was a worn motor mount on mine..... and my wallet went thump every time I had to fill it up :)

    Compatible transmissions for the M35a3 with the cat 3116

    If the MT653 is a 1:1 final drive, it doesn't buy anything, since the 4 spd in it now has a 1:1 final drive.

    Deuce oil change at oil express!

    Glad you got a deal. The valvoline quik lube near me wanted ALMOST $150 TO CHANGE THE OIL WITH my FILTER. needless to say, the oil didn't get changed there.

    M35A3 leaking fuel near filter

    does anyone have actual pictures of the fuel filter changes? The NAPA filter I got doesn't look to be even close to the same size as the original. A picture of the 'check valve' cleaning would be appreciated too, because the TM is less than clear, and it isn't like you can call AAA to have it...
