Hi Friends, Here we go again. I needs some help. I have elec to the horn when I push the horn button. We have air in the line to the selenoid. But when we push the button nothing happens. I blew the hrn with a compressor when it was off, so I know the horn blows. So I guess my selenoid is...

I hope this helps you. Our brakes were like pushing on a stone wall. Full pedal, but no brakes. We took the air pac apart and at first found no obvious problems. It was nice and clean and found nothing broken. So we cleaned it all up even better and while doing so found it had brakee fluid...

We have finally got this 1952 M135 running pretty decent. Now we can concentrate on all the smaller things. One thing I just experienced though that is no small matter is a brake problem. Occasionall when applying the brakes it feels like the brake pedal is against something that will not let it...

It's me again. I hope you guys dont mind my questions. But I find you all a great help. The M135 my Dad and I are working on just doesnt run right. He had the engine rebuilt about 10 yrs back and it has ran very little. It just seems to not want to take gas. It idles fine but has trouble when...

One of the wires is broken off flush with the back of my blackout lite so I figured I'd try and take it apart. Which I have done without breaking anything. But obviously. it's not meant to be taken apart, but replaced. Can these still be found for sale? Thanks as always, Brad

Friends, It seems we have successfully changer our 1952 M35 over from automatic transmission to standard shift. This effort was greatly aided by the fact that we also had a parts truck that had been previously changed over. In fact we switched the entire engine, bell housing and tranny. Even...

1. I have a couple leaking wheel cylinders. Before I tear it down I'd like to have the correct cups or kits. What size are the cups? 2. Seems the rear main seal is leaking. I just started running this older new rebuilt engine after maybe 10 yeras. Almost no time on it but it's been...
