    My first oil change...

    Mine sat for a little less than 24 hours before I changed it. Not a drop from the canisters, and the process was as smooth as silk! Which is more than I can say for the tire swap/ axle seals/ brake job.... aua

    Questions about register M35 in VA

    Here in MD you MUST enter weigh stations if your vehicle is registered, rated or actually weighs 10,001 pounds or more. Once you get there, you are exempted from most of the DOT inspection rules if you are not a commercial carrier, or if the vehicle is not used in the furtherance of a commercial...

    Question about tires.

    I'm thinking they were the M35A3. Look around some more, they're here.

    Question about fixing the tachometer

    When I got mine the tach wasn't working either. After pulling the cable I found that it wasn't broken, but it was rusted into the drive adapter on the engine. The angle drive was rusted solid and broke the shaft pin in the engine. That was a fun replacement there.... It works now. I'm glad I...

    395's from Sam Winers on singled deuce!

    I was in the DOT business for 7 years. I left because the tide was changing, and it was losing focus on why we were there in the first place. Getting the bad trucks and drivers fixed was rapidly becoming writing as many citations as possible on each inspection. Of course, that's just my...

    395's from Sam Winers on singled deuce!

    If they're not CFR trained they may not know. Even the "Drive Safely" placards aren't legal anymore. Be careful.

    Ellsworth Deuce Recovery

    need advice. it says"diesel fuel only"

    I think most, if not all, of them say that. Diesel fuel is the "preferred" fuel. I'm not sure what a fuel compensating valve is.... :confused: I'm sure there will be others to chime in.

    M35A3 Insurance in VA

    I've found that it can make all the difference by calling different agents, even with the same company. I had one agent for State Farm say they couldn't do it, then another agent looked at the truck and said "Sure we can!". It's a policy covering historic vehicles, full coverage, $114 a year. I...
