    filter numbers

    wow! so no one has a mep-806b?? well i did verify that it is not a wix 51243 oil filter, seems that one spins right onto the block, mine has a remote filter mount with large, fine threads. for fuel it 'may' be a wix 33531, but i don't have the locking ring that attaches it to the mount.

    Fuel Injector Removal

    injectors are so cheap, i would just put a new set in. cheaper than having them serviced. i guarantee yours are bad, in all the sets i have tested always 1/2 or more are not working correctly.

    Blow-by assessment - opinions needed!

    i would saw that is way excessive, but i have seen worse. mine is a 1974 engine that was run hot several times, has scored cylinder walls, piston noise, and for some reason has almost no blow-by.

    MEP 802a ran out of fuel, is hard starting now, running on 1 cylinder?

    remove the line from the top of the pump and then remove the top section, the next nut. use some 2+2 gum cutter and clean the plunger. the injection system is self priming so you probably have a stuck pump.

    Lets talk about brakes...please

    yes you need a scrap yard nearby. i got the complete brake setup from a UD box truck = 2 airpacks and a dryer, then mounted a 900 series pedal assy on the firewall.

    Lets talk about brakes...please

    it doesn't have to be expensive. that usually happens when you cannot do it yourself. i re-engineered the entire brake system for around $400 and got an air dryer as well.

    Working on motor, motor stopped turning!

    the HF scope i have is .355 so it may just fit, but it will not let you look around like you need to.

    Working on motor, motor stopped turning!

    did you have someone hold the clutch in to see if it was the trans? did you remove the 3 bolts on the IP drive gear? is there a big hole in the side of the block that you didn't notice?? if all are no, you would know what 2 cylinders it could be by the position it stops turning. but in any case...

    Lets talk about brakes...please

    correct but there is no orientation, just a top. you can mount them anywhere on the truck, facing any direction. mine replaced the spare tire.

    mep 802a -- mep803a source for panel meters

    ok, i see the problem, that is not a part number, it is the cage code for that manufacturer and everything they make will have that number as their cage number.

    Working on motor, motor stopped turning!

    i got the HF one, $100 or less and it has a wireless screen that detaches so you can fasten the camera somewhere and then drive the vehicle to monitor. the lighted camera is very small.

    M35a2 dilemma

    i don't think people realize just how rough and beat that truck really is. to me that is just barely a parts truck. the winch, hard top and engine are about the only good things there (maybe) the rest is just going to be hard to get rid of.
