I think you will be fine on your hoses for a while anyway. I agree on carrying extra fuel filters becasue the Bio will act as a solvent and plug your filters pretyy quick over the first few tanks. All the paraffin and asphaltines in your tank and fuel system will be washed out so expect...
I am also a member over at www.thedieselplace.com and in one of the threads a guy said that the CUCV injector pumps were not as good as the civilian pumps at handling thicker fluids. I thought I had read the exact opposite on here but I can't find it again. I am looking for M1009 because I...
I knew he would specify Royal Purple products but I was more interested in the SAE ratings, specifications, etc. I don't want to push anyone's buttons; just trying to provide some more info. I agree with you on the GL5 point, but I do feel there are better products out there and I think...
I have been watching this thread with much interest and I can tell there are a lot experts and opinions. So, to add a little more confusion, I asked my Royal Purple distributor about his thoughts. Well he had to make a few calls but this is what he came up with (all Royal Purple products of...
Sorry for the late reply, been busy with the holidays. I have an old truck box full of lights over at the farm. I will check them out by the end of the week and let you know.
I think the kingpin is the same side but they pull along steep slopes and do not like the side to side tilt feature. I am not sure about the dimensions becasue I don't put the new fifth wheels on. They usually have one that they pull off of a junk truck that was their old pull out truck. I just...
A lot of y'all know that I buy a lot of 5 ton trucks that I sell to the logging industry to use for pull out trucks. They do not use the fifth wheel, pintle hitch, rear lights, beds, etc. Does anyone think there is a market for this stuff? I bet I have taken 30 fifth wheels to the scrap yard...
Not sure where you are located in Alabama but their are several in North Alabama, I have one and just sold one. They are great trucks. Heavy duty and yes they look mean. I agree with the others that say waste no time on the 230. If you are going to make a drivetrain change go ahead and do it...
I have bought a 105 that had about 20 older style 2 pin slave cables in the back along with misc. hand tools and a bunch of junk. Several trailers and trucks have had spare tires and ammo cans left in the back.
Great looking M1009! I may be wrong but I think the center console is made by Tuffy. If I had one this nice, I would fork out the cash for the Tuffy console too!
Sorry for the controversy, I was just trying to help. I don't even own a mule but a person contacted me through Scribd asking if I had a manual. If I should have split the post in some way I apologize for that also. I am not trying to make any money just help out other MV owners.
Warthog -...
Sorry I can't answer that one but I tried to upload some M35A3 manuals for a guy and was unable. I asked in the help section but didn't get any help. I thought about setting up a SS account on Scribd but didn't want to infringe on any copyrights, etc. I am trying to gather as many TMs as...
Hello guys,I have setup a Scribd account using my same user name "pacebm" where I upload military manuals so people can access and download them. Does anyone have a link where I could download the manuals for a mule or anything associated with the mule? Thanks for the help.
If you are looking...
I will be on the lookout for a used water heater! I looked over the Wolverine site and was trying to make sure that I could heat the oil up to 160 if/when I go to the centrifuge. I saw some pretty slick drum heaters, but just didn't see any in my price range for a test setup like I am running...
My plans are to heat and let it settle, then go through several levels of filtration. The filtration will be an assortment of oil and water filters that get it down to at least 5 micron. If the WMO works well, I will get a centrifuge.
Just another in a long list of questions I will be asking as I setup my WMO system:
I am going to heat the oil before I filter it but I am not sure what size water heater elements to get. How are you guys sizing your heating elements? I was planning on running two elements at about 1/3 and...
I had planned on staging it down to the 1 micron but I am not determined to filter to 1 micron. These are just super cheap and I was trying to think of a way to use them. To you guys with experience; if this is stupid please tell me so I don't waste my time. He gets lots of filters with...
