I just replaced the brake cyl passenger side rear, I also cleaned up a lot of grime and repacked the bearings. How tight do I put on the Hex nut on the wheel spindle that has a cotter pin that goes thru it?
I lived in one in Germany for about 165 days out the year back in the early eighties. They were easy to expand. Winter time the fuel fired heater kept it warm, except for the steel floor which was cold and froze your feet, rubber mat help solve that problem. Other thing is make sure you ground...
I was able to pick up a new carb at a fair price and slapped it on, I set the choke to what the 20 manual recommends and it runs perfect now. It also has better pick up and top speed. Thanks for all your support.
On Sept 10, 2011 at the Claremore, OK Expo Center the 32nd Annual BlueGrass & Chili festival will be also hosting a Car show that day. The sponsors have added a military vehicle category so if you have a military vehicle please bring it out. The military vehicle category was added after the...
Learning alot from you guys, when I went in the army the M37 was already phased out, we had the M880, M151A1/2, M1008, M561. Thanks. Working late this week so I'll be working on my M37 saturday.
There is no fuel leaking any where. The fuel pump does not have a handle, I wish it did. The fuel pump I believe is fairly new, it has a glass bowl next to it, and there is fuel in it. I will check the choke this weekend. Maybe the guy that rebuilt the carb did something incorrectly during the...
My M37 idles and runs great, problem is if it sits a week it cranks but does not start right away, I can crank it for about 20 times before it starts. Once it starts it starts up first try every time after that and the following days. After a week of sitting it takes alot of cranking. The guy...
I drove a M151A1 and A2 in Germany from 1979 to 82, even on the autobahn, don't remember any carb problems.
I also was issued a new Mutt that came out of Prepositioned Materiel Configured to Unit
Sets (POMCUS) from England with only 15 miles on it, It drove/ handled/ sounded like an old jeep...
I purchased a M37 w/w back in June, don't know much about them because they were phased out when I went in 79. I noticed canvas for this vehicles are expensive, I shopped around and found a fairly priced roll up back cab canvas from New Life Canvas. I put it on the other night and it went on...
I am planning to put some Sea Foam in the tank, when I installed the new electric fuel pump the tank was clean inside so no worry there.
In the early 1980s I rebuilt a couple of M151A1 Carbs when I was in the army.

Thanks for the replies, It idles fine when sitting, I will bring the idle up a little more by pulling out the choke a little. I will take it for a test drive and see what happens.
Thanks any more suggestions please let me know.
My M151A1 starts and runs great. Problem is when I am in 4th gear driving 40 mph I let up off the gas and push the clutch in to down shift to turn off the road and the engine quits. Same thing going down hill I take my foot off the gas pedal and it stalls. The electric fuel pump is new also has...
The 32nd Annual Bluegrass & Chili Festival in Claremore , OK will also be sponsoring a Open Car Show. I plan to attend with my M151A1 and 710M Pinzgauer. The sponsor stated if more military vehicles show up then they will have a separate class for military vehicles. So please support this event...
