Speaking of new tool lines. Harbor Freight has started their "Icon" tool line. They say it will compete with the big boys like MAC and Snap-On . I bought a set of wrenches to try out. They are a little bigger then the Snap-On wrenches (thicker) but overall they look and feel pretty good. Their...
So your the one from Kalifornia ! LOL just kidding David. It's good to have people of "Right" thinking up here in the Pacific Northwest. I remember when all those Californians came up here in-mass in the late 1970's. The place hasn't been the same since. It's nice to know that not all...
I thought the OA-331 engine used standard motor mounts ? At least mine sure looked like they where standard type mounts.
I still have one of my M34 1954 REO's left. I'll try and remember to check them tomorrow.
I already bought a set of motor mounts for my M35A2, so I won't be trying this...
Sometimes the truck can be setting at a slight angle and the water in the fuel settles in a corner. Then you only have to fix a small area. Of course there is the other side of the coin when your whole tank bottom has water setting on it ! Like yours appeared to do. Then your SOL !
Totally agree ! I could use that to move around the heavy engine blocks and transmissions and transfer-cases around here. As it is I have to get my son and the heavy duty hand-truck for the transmissions and transfer-cases. The engines need the neighbors tractor . He can only help on certain...
The Hydraulic Head being changed could effect not only the idle, but the fast idle too. Every Hydraulic Head is just a bit different then the other even though they are suppose to be exact replacements.
Could it make this much difference ? Who knows. Was your Hydraulic Head completely...
I remember putting them in a sealed bucket with several other lights I wanted to keep safe. I have several storage rooms of stuff. All packed from floor to ceiling. If I made an extreme effort to find them it would probably take several days just to clean out one of the rooms. It makes me tired...
The oil passages in the block are drilled from the front to the back of the block. They where drilled out when the block was first made. The manufactures just use NPT plugs to seal off the passages. Some are used for pressure gauges and other things like Turbo oil feeds.
Then you need to look at your first fuel filter by the generator. It is suppose to be a fuel/water filter. Then clean out your fuel tank and add some water inhibiters/absorbers to the fuel. Or just dump the fuel and start fresh.
There is a "valve" behind that spring. Try and get it out. Be careful ! It is "Lap" fitted to this bore, so if you loose the valve you will need to replace the Hydraulic Head.
So James we're "friends" now ? ;) Good to know.
Did you ever check the cam plug ? It can rot out and then start to leak. Also there are several NPT plugs back there that could possibly be the culprit.
Could it be your transmission oil leaking ? The rear oil seal is not the only thing keeping back oil.
I've been meaning to do that to my truck. What size pipe did you use ? Also where did you attach the "stay" lines too ? The back of the bed ?
A few more pictures of your front hoist system would be nice and appreciated !
Thanks.
First off, completely taking apart a mechanical device and "replacing" or "repairing" damaged parts. Then putting it all back together is called "Rebuilding" !
That is what I did. As far as never installing them, you know this how ? Why in the world did I do this if I didn't need it for one of...
