    M37 Still Won’t Start – Not Sure What To Look At Next

    I commend you on your perseverance. I had a heck of a time getting my chev 350 to run right. I set the timing up and it would not start or run and than die. We finally figured it out as slack in the timing chain. Perhaps this is your problem.2cents

    Bedford MJ or Bobbed Deuce

    The bedford was the truck of choice for tour companies doing overland expeditions in Africa in the 70's &80's . They were relable and fairly simple to fix if broken. Is it a lefty or a righty ? Better view off road, just don't hit anything too big!
