    M35a2 oils

    Thanks Rusty. One more clarification before my head explodes. So we are talking about using "50wt non detergent motor oil" in the trans and transfer case? Not 50wt gear oil? Thanks.

    M35a2 oils

    Also, am I correct in assuming the same oil should go in the transfer case as well?

    40wt here. Probably change to 50wt. Also going to start adding zinc to the 15w40 in the motor.

    what pressure are you running in your 9.00x20's?

    40 in the rears made a huge difference. Might try 35 but I'm happy with it for now.

    Welcome from md. Let it warm up to 120 but take it easy until fully warmed. I usually cheat a little. Download the electrical schematic tm's for your truck. They make life so much easier.

    what pressure are you running in your 9.00x20's?

    According to the tm, 50 psi all around is the correct pressure for on road driving. It seems like that would be correct if the truck was loaded to capacity but with an empty bed it seems too high for the rears. Does anyone air down the rears for normal driving? I was thinking about 50 in the...

    Any Harm Short Running Diesel Engines

    When I drive my M35A2 I let it run even if I have to go into a store for up to 10 minutes. I pull the throttle trim out in order to boost oil pressure and smooth engine vibration. Not sure if you have this ability in you vehicles.

    Fuel system issues

    Do you get fuel if you leave the line disconnected. Preferably into a suitable fuel container.

    Fuel system issues

    Could be a bad coil or distributer problem as well. Edit: oops, didn't catch the part about no fuel to the carb.

    Deuce Stereo Installation

    I'm a huge audio fanatic, but I would have never considered the deuce for an install. Looks good.
