I am sorry for your loss Dave. It sounds like your dad was a truly great man. Very neat that he left those 71 pages about his life. What a priceless thing to leave his family!! You are in our thought and prayers down here. If you need anything or just need to talk, let me know I have to...

I would be interested in knowing if that is the cause or not.

I suppose I should have clarified that I have never seen the contract number and FSN on an M135 data plate. Sorry for the confusion. These are 3 of the 4 data plates off of the trucks I own. Is it possible the Ord. Stock Number stamped on two of the plates is the number that is being searched for?

I've never seen one with a contract number or stock number on it.

Welcome!

I read that the Canadian Military switched to using 15w40 in these engines. I have also heard that Shell Rotella 15w40 has the zinc additives that old engines need. You'll have to decide what is best for you but this is what I plan to run in mine when I get her back on the road. Shell...

I would fix it. Good looking truck!

Just click on the gasket templates in the thread above your post and they should download to your computer as a PDF. If that doesn't work, PM me your email and I will try to send them to you that way.

How did you install the separate ignition circuit for the 12v coil?

I'm not positive what shade it is you are looking for, but I matched this color off of a 1950s dated gas can. It is what I am painting my M135 with. It is Behr semi-gloss. Here is the color match on the gas can. The darker green spot in the upper right corner was my first attempt. The final...

I am using this airless sprayer from Harbor Freight with a Graco 315 tip. It works really well. I have not had to thin the paint at all to spray. https://www.harborfreight.com/airless-paint-sprayer-kit-60600.html Your paint should be fine if it isn't bubbling up or anything. A few days in the...

I'm using Behr as well. So far I am very happy with it, but I have been careful to not get it wet until dry. What is the paint doing since it keeps getting wet?

You are cleaning that truck up fast. Looks great!! What paint did you use and what is the paint code? Very cool that you and SturmTyger380 live so close.

Here are the measurements of my exhaust stack. :roll: Trying to find a truck with a cab heater isn't so easy down here. I think Canada ended up with all of them. One of these days I'll have to try to get you to sell me one or two.

This is not the tall stack like on the Canadian trucks, but this is what was on mine.

Transmission output shaft seal. I will get these part numbers added soon. I'm in the middle of setting up a new computer and still need to buy MS Office so I can get back to updating the parts list.

Thank you for the part number M37keppy! I will get it added to the list soon. I'm in the middle of getting a new computer setup and still need to add MS Office so I can edit the parts list.

I think that explains why mine is so hard to start in the cold. Too much fuel. I'll have to try the method you guys that live in real cold use.

Those pictures turned out good. What endoscope did you get? I have a couple engines I need to check out too.

If that is the U-joint in plowboy's book you are looking for, we have it in our parts list as Spicer 5-115X, Rockwell CP115X, Dana 4-6-128X and Precision 332. You can probably find the dimensions you are looking for googling one of those.
