    LDS-465-1A Exhaust Gas Temp Concerns

    EO2NBCB Wrote: I shouldn't have brought up the 600 degree part of the post as it only served to confuse things. The 600 degree part was brought up to give a exampleas to normal, conservative "flat land" cruising produced. My real concern was that on a hill the pyro can reach 1,150 degrees in...

    Oil Bypass Filter for M35 and other...

    I can't answer your question about the turbo discharge line BUT there is a capped port in the block between the turbo and the firewall on the LDT engine that is reserved for the dip stick tube in the LDS. Depending on flow out of the by-pass filter, it might be large enough. I would tap into the...

    LDS-465-1A Exhaust Gas Temp Concerns

    Thanks for the comments and be careful until you get a pyro. Last night when the temp got up to 195 degrees I pretty much decided that the finter-front would have to go. What doesn't make sense is how young fire-pixxing GIs can abuse these engines in the much heavier 5-tones without a...

    LDS-465-1A Exhaust Gas Temp Concerns

    No. If I put my foot in the pump on a hill EGTs can get to 1,150 PDQ.

    LDS-465-1A Exhaust Gas Temp Concerns

    I’m finding that the new LDS-465-1A engine in my bobbed deuce is capable of quickly producing dangerously high exhaust gas temperatures. Call me naïve but I’m surprised! I figured that since the injection pump setting is stock and given that the LDS (5-ton) engine is in a bobbed deuce and...

    M35 engine help

    If this is your first winter with your deuce and the problem came on with the colder weather I would bet your problem is wet stacking due to the engine running cold. Multi's don't handle cold weather well. In the winter it can be hard to warm them up enough to get the defrosters to work. If...

    M35 in the USF Homecoming Parade

    RE: Re: RE: M35 in the USF Homecoming Parade Good looking truck --- good looking crew. The dog adds a lot of class to the operation. It's good to see an old retired soldier like your deuce participating in noble civilian causes. Party on!

    Re-Powering The Deuce With A 5-Ton LDS-465-1A Engine

    Oops --- I made a mistake. I was reading through some past posts last night and realized I had quoted the wrong micron ratings for jatonka's spin on filters: On page four I wrote: Jatonka's filters are available in 13 micron which only reenforces my simpler solution theory.

    Alternate spare tire stowage/mount suggestions?

    gimpyrobb sez: At the price of fuel I don't know that I could afford to carry around extra fuel. <grinning> Seriously ... I carry a 3500 W generator in the center of the front of the bed which complicates things. I did some measuring today and decided the spare is too tall to stand up in the...

    Re-Powering The Deuce With A 5-Ton LDS-465-1A Engine

    Yesterday the roads lost enough snow-pack so I could take Rosie for a run up one of the local hills to see how the power compares. In short --- It was a "foot-in-the-pump" and "hips-in-the-wind" run! There is a nearby hill (the Gheen Hill) that I've mentioned previously. The old LDT engine...

    Houdel Sez: Yes --- The threads are standard NPT. We were able to clean up the old threads and salvage enough turns to get it to hold. (Red locktite to the rescue). I don't know how much pressure the pump will create. I've had the gauge that reads the pressures between the oil pump and the...
