I once ran across a chart for mixing fuels for multi-fuel engines in PMCS mag back in national guard days. I always tried to run 25% diesel, it makes for easier starting in cold weather. My CW3 (chief warrant officer) the head of my motor pool and I tested the multi fuel. We ran everything...

I am a newbie to this forum not to deuce. The A3 has same axles as the A2, so if you needed to swap axles you can. The A2 would be best for running bio-diesel, you would have to put in a pre-heater for bio-diesel or have small diesel tank for start and warm up then switch to bio after warm...

Hello nice to have another Oregonian. I from Elkton, or.

Oregon did it. And I will double check. She was my first deuce and I remember that she had two diff locks one marked front the other marked rear. Chief Morrison told me only to lock them in on soft ground, if I had to lock them in on paved surface then I had better have NOTHING in front of me...

Is there is someone that knows about commercial semi tractors and can explain what the dif lock is and dose please do

we lost the usefulness of this thread. we stopped talking like civil adults

This is right for driving on solid surfaces. If you are looking for traction on loss ground sand, snow, and mud, It will work fine that is why in national guard the added selectable air lockers. So we could unlock the diff's for HWY driving.

I have a 68 GMC 1500 pick-up it has posi it drives completely different from limited slip like what was in my 98 Ford i had. It got stuck a the smallest chance. My GMC will plow past 4X4's

I had selectable air lockers on front axe of most of my deuces in the army. I found them to be great. If i had a deuce i would put them on the back most commercial semi have them on there drive axles. You can get the best of both worlds.

I Drove M915 On Active Duty I never had one slip when air was low, I did run in to faulty engagement valve on shifting tower caused similar problems. I had to hold the valve in with my knee to get back to motor pool.

I was 88Mike in the Army (truck Driver). Take answer (E all of the above.) Rule of thumb I learned abut trucks is they are all different, and work it that way. The trans dose got hot I used to keep my coffee cup warm by putting it on the floor just behind the shifter.

I can hopefully help. In colder states (north mason Dixon line) - 20 manual tells you to use a thermostat that opens at 180 degree. I live in Oregon I first found this out from chief mechanic In National Guard, then had it confirmed by SSgt. Sharp in Korea while On active Duty Army.

Beerslayer I Would love that Very much:-D:-D:-D:-D I will have to wait until soc.sec. dose come through. But this gets a quote from the A-team, ( :twisted::twisted: I love it when a plan comes together.:twisted::twisted: )

that sounds reasonable and I can most likely fix one I'm finding the same price range out here

I've been trying to find one to get an idea of a price. I've only been finding them on trucks. I would have no problem using tool bed to get crane. I wife wants me to stop hurting my back, Disabled because of my back. I could sale her on a new one, if i can find one used.

I want to put an auto crane on my deuce WHEN I get one.

I'm not a burly man, but there is a way to palm a deuce at low speed. Put it in low transfer first gear. I would spend time and money on full hyd steering.

I like the fact that I have not talked about politics on this site and would like to keep it that way. To those how served use YOUR MILITARY TACT AND BEARING, and you can go with what most I've met have been tout "if you can say anything good. Don't say anything." Speaking for my self as a...

Do you know oh did the tractor tire rims?

I was in Korea. I was NG before I went active. When I was sent to our master driver for my license, he didn't know I had spent the last two and a half years chasing Abrams and Bradley s around central Oregon, or that I got most of my drivers training from third shop mechanic's. The MD said...
