Thank you S Thank you Stumps and everyone else in this thread including Doghead. I enjoy reading both current and past posts on all sorts of topics and I read the TMs often (both those provided as short cuts to the Resource page in the posts and the hardcopy of the TMs I purchased right after...

Hey Jumpinford, was at Walmart tonight and saw they had Delvac on sale for $9.87 a gallon, reg price is $12.00. Just some FYI here, might be able to find it at this price near you.

Hi Rlwm211, I read the guide at the website (http://www.jatonkam35s.com/DeuceTechnicalManuals/PSMultifuelOperator.pdf) and have a question, I do not have a fuel shut off switch on my dash as shown on page 9, box #2. My deuce is a '71, should it have one there or could it be located elsewhere...

Hi Mobil.... one solution is to become the neighborhood association president like I did, now no problems. ;)

Ok guys, I need a sanity check here. I have read the TM, the little operator manual cartoons and this thread and I have seen a lot of input that does not exactly line up with the published guides. Here is how I start my deuce: 1. Be sure stop switch is pushed in 2. Switch over the accessory...

Hey Oldshep, thanks a bunch with your help on the filters, took a look at the pics you posted and your deuce is pretty slick. I must say have I not seen you out motoring with it otherwise I would have definitely remembered it! I like the gauges, you'll have to explain to me how you did them and...

THANKS AGAIN everyone for the great dialogue, I was just uncertain about burning synthetic. Looks like my question regarding what oils to use has also been answered.

Anyone know of such an event in the SW Missouri area? Ohio is a bit far for me. :(

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR REPLIES!! I appreciate your years of experience and the advice that comes with it. I have a couple more questions.... is there synthetic oil for this application? Can synthetic oil be burned as WMO in a multi-fuel without problems or is this something that...

I am preparing to do my first oil change and I have read a lot about Rotella oil, but what about Delo or Mobil's Delvac oil? Both state they are heavy duty for diesel engines and a few bucks cheaper, all three are available at WalMart. I drive my deuce less than 500 miles a year so my thinking...

Hey Blizzard, welcome to SS. I spent some time growing up in North Highlands back in 82/83', went to Highlands HS. I have an aunt and uncle who still live in Roseville. That whole place has just boomed since I was last there.

Well a quick update here.... I finally got my replacement hoses today from Memphis Equipment and installed them rather quickly, confirming my opinion there was enough variance in the threads from the hose I had made locally vs. the hoses I got from Memphis. I also replaced the small 7" hose...

Thanks Derby for the references, I will give them a call tomorrow. I definitely have been cautious to avoid any cross threading!!

Ok Gimpy, I pulled the hose, had a new one made, but the equipment place that made it for me had to do so with a slightly larger diameter higher rated hose (PSI rated at 5,600). Went all over Springfield, MO. and same story, best anyone could do, nothing as small as what I pulled off. Problem...

Thanks AZ.....that's what I figured.

Thanks derby... I looked it all over and found the IP oil hose to be leaking at the lower fitting. How much pressure does this hose handle? I was thinking about replacing it with a braided hose because of the adjacent structure and potential for chaffing, has anyone done that before? What...

Thanks Warthog Ahh..haa!! Now I know what a slobber tube is! When I first heard this term I thought someone was messing with me, made me think about how we would send inexperience aircraft mechanics to go find a yard of flight line. :) I think I will put a hose on it, even though I don't...

Follow Up Well, after reading a number of post with good recommendations, I looked under the hood, specifically at the hoses and I think I found the culprit. I tightened all clamps, checked coolant level at radiator cap, good and full; fired her up and no coolant leaks. I also tried to figure...

Can these replacement hoses be ordered online, or just picked up at an auto parts store?
