Follow the return tubing from the injectors . Should be connected between 3 front and 3 rear return lines. It is located on the passenger side near the intake manifold directly above the turbo. Should be able to blank inlet and outlet tubing with 1/8 NPT caps. Search Intake Fuel Heater , many...
Need to check fluid levels (OIL) . My fuel heater was leaking through and adding fuel to the crankcase thinning out oil causing major oil leaks. Fixed the heater nozzle and changed oil and filters , NO MORE unnecessary OIL SLINGING !!! Just a thought , have a great and safe day,Dave :driver:
Just a though to remember fluid seeks it's own level , could overflow without check valves. With me the more simple the better less chance of fuel change over valves valves going AWOL and having to make road repairs .
similar to the way the Old Harley tank works . 2 tanks with a ballance hose between them. Fluid seeks its own level so it keeps both tanks at the same level all the time . Has worked great for about 70+ years for them !!!
Mine is a Winton made for outdoor service sealed by rubber caps and Orings . 4" vice , looks the same as the second picture in DAVEY 8943's post with the exception of the one in the picture has the rear thread water plug missing. 2cents

The reason I modified the steering arm is that the Garrison Control Valve must run in a parallel line with the ground. The OEM M35a2 drag link is some what S shaped to make up the difference in height in pittman arm and steering arm. With the power assist control valve and hydraulic cylinder...
Did all of the installation myself. Had the steering arm welded by a nuke certified welder at work. The control valve just senses the direction you are trying to turn the wheels and sends fluid to that side of the cylinder . Very simple in operation, easy to rebuild just 4 o rings in the...

I have been running used (non PCB) trans- former oil for years . No problems ,a little hard to start when cold but runs great. The oil I have been using is vey light (thin) does look as if it burns a bit hotter than Diesel . All the paint left town on the stack !!! :driver:
