I guess not. The DRMO gal said they will be cut for scrap. I am just surprised to see them. I thought all were gone many years ago. About 3 years ago there was an M37 out there also but just a hulk on wheels. Surprises never end.
Yes, that's right M-151's. Went to Chambersburg today for a trailer and there sit two M151's in desert tan. No tops but it doesn't matter as they are going to be scrapped. I asked where they came from but no one I talked to knew. I could not go over to them to take pictures as they are in a...
I am in PA and tonights weather has the Jim Thorpe area under a storm advisory. 3-6 inches of snow turning to ice Friday night/Saturday. I am also wondering how we know if it cancels?
I live in PA and had the same problem moving a duce from Mechanicsburg. They (DMV) told me I must get it inspected and titled before any plates will be issued. How you gonna do that? Can't drive it to an inspection station without a license and can't inspect it without a title! We ended up...
Got a new in the crate 3KW generator some weeks ago from GL. It ran fine untill recently. Still runs OK but after about 10 minutes, it starts emitting dense blue smoke. This smoking will start and stop and comes from both exhaust stacks so it isn't one cylinder doing it. It appears engine...
My '142 also has both heaters, one on each side of the door. I am also looking for either a fuel heater or parts for the one I have. It sat for years, I assume, with fuel in it and got gummed up. I need a fuel pump and the control module for the TK-15 heater. What else, I don't know...
We use the dyed diesel in all our farm equipment. They call it "off road" diesel but the invoice says heating oil. By law here, we must mark our bulk tanks with the State provided sticker warning you about using it on the highway. BIG FINE!!
With additives, we keep the fuel for years, in...
Just for info, this connector and any other MS type is available from allied electronics. Be careful ordering as you must "assemble" it and order the right items as well as "plug" or "socket". It is best to get a catalog or print the MS connector pages online along with the pin drawings. It...
Also interested in the starter and any pictures of it. I have the 28 volt generator version to run my AN/GRC-142. It starts easy with the rope but the electric start would be better!
I got another e-mail alert also. The mil-radio guys are also getting them. I also got a letter from my congressman saying he is looking into this. (and I have a bridge I want to sell). The GL warehouse at Mechanicsburg is half what it was 6 months ago. The goverment has taken it back from...
Ahhh! My M-715 has a 2 barrel carb and a different manifold. So it is a FSJ part! Was wondering about that. Anyone have any experience with the 2 barrel on the M-715. Mine seems to run rich, by smell only since I have no other way to tell. It is/was a new carb as it has no signs of dirt or...
Anyone have a switching table for the 3 lever light switch? Meaning, what terminals are connected/switched for each position of the levers? For instance, if in "SER/DRIVE "F" is connected to "M" and "????".
Thanks,
Ron
I went to Mechanicsburg today (10/26) to pick-up my nice new in the case 3KW generator. It was outside but not damaged by weather. Lot's of trucks in the yard for future sales. Some really nice ones with great paint, tires and canvas. A few in cammo. I counted 19 M35's in one row and many...
