When you block the radiator it warms up to the 180 degrees. When you remove the cushion, does it fall back down to 140 degrees? If so, you have a thermostat issue. I agree with Rick and would use the Stant brand thermostat. There are only two things it could be, the temp gauge or thermostat. You...

Have you looked at your temp gauge? Even though it indication 140 degrees, the engine could be at op temp. The quickest way to check is to get it running up to its 140 degree temp, as indicated on the gauge, than use a temp gun and take readings at the engine block, radiator, and bottom radiator...

Still have it parked at work. Discovered I blew the rear main seal and the oil is getting on the clutch causing it to slip.

My truck is one of the five that came from the same auction as yours. Mine was in the first row when you came through the gate and was back against the fence with another truck in front of it. I wonder where the other two trucks ended up.

goliath These trucks served with the air national guards communication squadron on the base. Did you drive yours home or trailer? I drove mine 208 mine to Missoula and had to leave it at my work because the transmission started slipping. I parked it and noticed a good leak coming out of the...

goliath, Did you get your trucks from the gov auction? Possibly out of Spokane?

Just got my EUC approved and looking for someone to ship my m35A2 from the airforce base in Spokane, WA to the airport in Missoula, MT. The truck runs and drives, I will be heading over this friday to put new batteries in it. if I don't get any takers I'll probably drive it home myself. I could...

All weigh stations are commercial only. I'm not a professional driver but I do have a DOT medical and sometimes have to take a company truck cross country to deliver parts. The truck is commercial licensed and just over the 26K weight limit. Everytime I've went through the weight stations they...

I had the opposite results last week. I e-mailed the gov liquidations and they told me that they weren't sure if the site would allow me to review before EUC approval. So of course I called the DRMO directly, I had an old base phone book from when I was stationed at the base. Anyway I played...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Looks like I'll be recycling aircraft hydraulic fluid and jet 1010 oil. Much cleaner than trans fluid.

Can anybody help get a duece picked up from Fairchild AFB and delivered to the airport in Missoula. The way the economy is I thought I'd give someone here a chance to make a few bucks rather than pay the shipping companies. If I can't get anyone here I'll go and pick it up myself.

Other than Diesel type fuels what other kinds of fuel can be used in these engines? Can you use a 50/50 mix of Diesel fuel and Jet oil without affecting performance or harming the engine? We discard alot of used jet oil that has less than 50 hours on it so I was thinking about cutting fuel costs.

frank1669, I know I'm way behind on this but how did the deal work out for you? Where in northern Idaho are you located? I live south of Missoula. I restored an A-2 and have an A-1 torn down so I know alittle about these vehicles.

I just found out the winch is on a 5 ton. So is the manual still 9-2320-209-34-23?

Can someone tell me if the front winch on the standard duece is the same as the front winch on the wrecker duece? Is there a specific overhaul manual for the winch itself or is it in the duece maintenance manuals?

It's an m151-a1 engine that looks like it was buried in a barn for a long time. Your best bet is to get the right engine for your project. The amount of time and money to get that thing running and installed will be far more than getting the right engine and rebuilding it. I've seen crate motor...

Looking to buy westinghouse J-34 engines whole or parts. If anyone has a lead on these shoot me an e-mail: malachinski6@gmail.com

mutt1966, You are correct, thanks for pointing this out.

When you wrote sanitized do you mean it is totally sand blasted and naked? You mention blue paint under the camo and knowing this is an ex USAF jeep will help alittle. Do you have any idea as to the year or how to go about getting in the ballpark? Most will agree that the horn is the most...

Interested in the m151 stuff. Sent you an e-mail
