What shape are the fuel tanks in? Often, those fuel tanks are all gummed up and nasty if the gensets have been sitting around a long time. I assume they must be fairly clean if you went ahead put fresh diesel in. You might want to go ahead and clean the facet pump filters, and then loosen the...
I'm having issues with the starter on my FLU419. The solenoid either clicks or chatters when the start button is pushed. After several attempts with the chattering solenoid, the starter engages and spins the engine fast. I cleaned up all of the battery cables and other cables as well to make...
Temperatures can get high and you can be miserable driving in high heat in a deuce, not to mention engine cooling. If you do decide to drive, I would recommend driving after the sun goes down and there are cooler temperatures, assuming that your lights are working well. I've recovered two...
That is one nice looking M37! I agree with all of the previous posts, but I would start with checking whether the throttle is opening all the way and then re-check the timing, assuming the T-case is in high.

Try United States of Freight. ( @unitedstatesoffreight ) I had them ship a FLU419 from Pennsylvania to Georgia for me. They did a fantastic job and their price was significantly lower than anyone else I could find.
One was a long Proto adjustable wrench and the other was a Ridgid pipe wrench. I started with the Proto adjustable wrench and a Craftsman open-end wrench, but the Craftsman wrench failed. The crazy thing is that the Ridgid pipe wrench I used was an old pipe wrench with a lot of wear on the...
I wonder if that stuff would be good to spray on the wire rope on a winch? When I received my M35A3 W/W it had very low mileage and the winch wire rope had never been unwound. The wire rope was sprayed the entire length with something like that RP-342 and the outer layer of wire rope on the...
I finally got the hydraulic couplers loose from the hydraulic hose. I had to use 5 foot cheater bars on the wrenches for both fittings. Once they broke loose, they both unscrewed by hand. I was really afraid something was going to break with that much force. The good news is that the new...
