    GL ads disappeared...did I miss something?

    When the economy turns down the first thing lots of companies do is cut their ads and fire their sales staff. The very things that bring money into the company. Stupid CFO's who can count the money once it is brought to the counting table; but don't have a clue how the money gets there. Keep up...

    Help!! play in steering wheel

    The M109 I just picked up has play in the steering wheel. You can move the wheel about a 1/3 of a turn without anything happening. There is no resistance at all. The truck drives very good, not shimmy, there is just a lot of free play in the wheel. Looks like the steering box has some new bolts...

    M109 Recovery

    My son and I picked up our 5th deuce today. Justin from GL was very helpful and everything went smoothly. 75 miles of heavy rain and high winds can not stop a deuce.

    I got ANOTHER one

    I used to live in Lake Way, near Austin TX. Man do I miss that place. Spent almost everyday on the lake for at least 30 minutes year round. Good Luck with the M109.

    Designed as a diesel engine from the ground up by the Detroit Diesel Division of General Motors, the original 6.2L diesel engine was introduced in the 1982 model year GMC and Chevy C/K pickup truck and full-size SUV lines.

    Diesel additive

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Power Service Additives You are right about the fuel lines. Bio-diesel does not like old rubber or copper (yellow metal).

    Diesel additive

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Power Service Additives I problem with veggie oil is it gets cold in the northern lands. That stuff freezes around 40 degrees. Mixed with lots of diesel it should be ok. I am going to try 2 cycle oil. I know that stuff will not hurt anything; but it is expensive. So is...

    Waste Oil Prices

    Last time crude was 75 dollars a barrel gasoline was around $2.00 a gallon we have a long to go. Diesel will never drop to $75 dollars a barrel prices as before because of the ultra low sulfur requirements. I still would not want to dump questionable wmo in my M35A2. Looks like OPEC is going to...

    Waste Oil Prices

    I just got a price on heating oil #2 diesel at $2.85 preminum boat diesel at $2.99 a gallon. For that price I would stick with the good clean oil instead of used motor oil. You don't really know what other crap was dumped in that tank do you. Additionally used motor is full of carbon and other...

    M109 Camper project

    Where is the head???? Don't tell me the woods!! I was thinking of a couch that converts into a bunk arrangement. The back flips up into the top bunk. I have friends who use that idea in smaller boats. That way you have lots more room until you need the beds. I already have a dual bench...

    Diesel additive

    Power Service Additives I use Power Service in the white bottle with every fill-up in all my diesel motors. Older motors need added lubricity for the injector pumps. Like my 3208Cats in the boat. When ever I pick up a Deuce I always add a bottle of 911, Red bottle. Bio-diesel does agreat job...

    Seems the newer water based Carc is not as bad to work with.
