In the -10 manual the ladder is listed as basic issue, useable on the M185A2, M185A3, M109A2, and M109A3. I suspect therefore that you won't find a reference on how to propelry stow it on another vehicle, since it wouldn't properly be present. I would venture to guess that it's mounting is...

I think you're safe. There's five hinges on a non-dropside gate and only four on a dropside gate.

Every benefit promised by every miracle in a bottle comes at the expense of another property. Air is not a good lower end lubricant. My personal opinion is that engines run forever on this additive in spite of it's being there, not because of it...

I use Gulfway. The policy is a Commercial policy from Travelers with the Collectors Choice that was already mentioned. I read my policy when I got it, but reading this has caused me to go back and read it again... I find differences from what's stated here. But, I'm in Vermont, and thus far I...

I rekeyed a stolen/recovered K5 blazer (which I believe to be no different?) about six months ago. Everything was available through GM. The chevy dealer here didn't have it on the shelf, I was able to get it the next day on a regular order (no freight) at the Cadillac garage (closer, plus I...

You are quite right. It wasn't about gasoline engines. While the multi-fuel engine in a deuce is far closer to a diesel engine than it is to a gasoline engine, it is not quite either one. Part of the process is that the multi-fuel engine does not atomize it's fuel. I'm leary about how good...

I tried this. The email said something like "add acetone and then shop around to see what brand of gasoline works best with it... And so forth and so on... Yeah, bull hockey. If it works it works, and if I have to shop for a different brand of gas, it's probably nothing to do with the...

I've been wondering on that too... The trucks at work use it with greatly extended service life, but they're all ball bearings, not a bushing in them, so I dunno... I guess my interest is more in availability than in performance. I searched a long time ago and found a couple of respectable...

Left rear motor mount.

Change the wheel around? As in change the original? Replace with something different? What is "fixed" with this modification... Just curious as mine works fine for me, so a "watered down" version is perfect. Not trying to take business from an SS member offering the service...

Best of luck to them, calling all of those back...:roll:

I wish this would act up enough to check that. Trouble is, it might be a month before it does it again if I start it regular. I only started it the other day because we're getting a thaw and I needed to move it forward to make a new set of tire holes in the back yard, before it sunk too deep...

I did check that one very carefully, but that's an excellent tip for this post. I would not have seen it had I not known to actually look for it based on experience from work. I never saw an externally grounded solenoid until I started working on medium duty stuff. I assume that this diagram...

I own a set of these ramps for loading ATVs... 1000 pounds is deceptive. It's based on assumptions about wheel base and weight distribution. It could be accurate, but I think it's optimistic. I see ones out there with much less metal than mine, with the same rating. I believe the safety...

An oldsmobile? :-D Check with Google for "Punkin Chunkin"

I seem to have an ongoing issue. When I hit the starter button, it almost always works just as it should. Now and then I get a "click". Not a "clunk" like a starter failure, but a definate "click" out in the engine bay. Trouble is, it's terribly intermittant, and releasing the starter...

This should work but is hard to count on. The alternate fuel source is unknown, if the engine runs away in a big way it is quite possibly (even likely) getting way too much fuel, in essence "turning up" the engine way beyond it's rated horsepower. You might not have enough spring pressure in a...

Turbos don't make heat, they catch a lot of it from the engine. You've got exhaust gas on the turbine wheel and housing that might be a thousand degrees when it's working. (Obviously that varies by vehicle and settings). So if the turbine is at a thousand degrees, and you shut it off, all...

Sounds normal to me. Flat spots are worse when it's cold, and take longer to drive out of the tires when it's cold. My driveway empties straight out onto a well traveled, 50mph truck route, so the engine is well warmed before I leave the driveway, but the tires are stone cold when they get to...

The tires on my car are not leaking. Should I break them down and patch them anyway? The purpose of honing is to make a surface that will seal against the rubber and not tear up the rubber. If you have this now, then what will the honing accomplish? You should have a hone handy when you're...
