Most of the original power tools are Black and Decker. Jatonka has one and has spent losts of time trying to get the complete/correct tools to fill the toolboxes. The tools are out there but one must find the correct engravings on the tools in order for the collection to be correct.
I don't see a problem! You won't notice the imperfections in a battle-truck sheet metal w/gloss paint after the compliments start to roll in. By then you will be so far beyond what everybody thinks and on to telling everyone at the shows that you drive the "Black Truck" not the other green or...
Your install will work with the stock under-dash air distribution box, however, it will not look neat and clean like an A3. The A3 uses the same distribution box as the M39 series, right side inlet. You will need to loop the 3" ducting under the dash 180deg. and enter the box on the left side.
It runs 5+ minutes because that is all the fuel availale in the fuel filter canister.
You may have a hole or blockage in the drafting tube in the tank or the fuel selector switch is in the wrong position. Turn the selector switch full counter-clockwise as veiwed from the drivers seat. This is...
Yanqui Doose - You need to update your avatar picture to show off your super singles... and did you get the pig pumpkin colored wrecker home yet?

Check with Jatonka and plan to go to some swap meets next season.
56 mph w/stock 9:00's @ 2550 rpm. 68 mph w395's @ 2500+rpm.
Not as much fun at that speed as you would hope. She becomes a handfull to drive, the big tires like to wander in the low areas of the lane.
I have and would recomend air assist steering to anyone w/oversized tires.
I used about 10 lbs of sandblasting grit in my tanks and 2 gals of deisel. Sealed them up and put them in the back of my pick-up for a week. Drove around, drained, stained, repeat, threw-out grit and debris, drove on the deisel. The tanks from the filler hole were as shiny as could be, filters...
If any body is interested I can bring TS/TT:
2- M35A3 wheels
2- M1008 Troopseats (VG metal/bad wood) throw-in canopy frame (seized)
1-complete out-of-box m35 heaterkit
10-M35 manuals
PM me, let me know.
Verify equal/full tire pressure on the front. If one tire is lower then the other will driving, a harmonic wobble will start and get increasingly worse until you change speed to cancel the effect.
