    General Deuce Questions

    Get a Jeep or a CUCV.... Max speed: 54 MPH. 50 Gal fuel tank X $3.40/Gal = $170 per fill up. So, at least $170 every week for gas alone. Have you considered the required maintenance? Are you aware of the single circuit brake system? The stock 9x20 tires will not last long on pavement...

    Secondary Fuel Filter O-Ring

    IIRC, I believe the filters that Saturn sells are the NAPA filters. Apparently, Saturn sells the NAPA filters to the govt. So, the NAPA filters become "OEM".

    Simplified Injection Pump Plumbing --- Why Not???

    That's what I did. I just used some brass plugs. The multi in multifuel still works great. The last time I drove it, it was running on 90% ATF/hydraulic fluid and 10% biodiesel.

    I pulled an old diesel VW from my friends farm that sat for over 10 years there. The tank was full of #2. After re priming the fuel system, it fired right up. I ran the whole tank before I switched the VW to B100.

    Deuce leaking oil from base of filter

    Hmm... Do you mean the one additional 90 deg fitting that I added? That was just because I wanted the hose to run on top of the filter, not below it. That one fitting I added actually stopped you from buying it? :roll: Past the one fitting, it is exactly the same as OD Iron sells.

    Deuce leaking oil from base of filter

    OD Iron sells a remote oil filter kit. It uses a much larger single filter. It works great. The filter has a built-in by-pass filter (XD Filters) and is rated for up to 40K OTR. http://odiron.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=8_10&products_id=41

    Max towing capacity of a M35?

    With regard to the legal issues of towing in general, I can only speak of NC. In NC, if towing a trailer 10,000 Lbs or greater, you MUST have a class A license. However, you do not need a class A CDL. You can get a non commercial class A license. With this license, you can now legally drive...
