It sounds like you have an A2 truck. Replace the soft fuel line between the primary fuel filter and the lift pump. If that doesn't solve it then inspect the lift pump (could have failed push button), bad fuel lines near tank selector valve (if tractor, dump, or wrecker), or in tank hard lines...

The M917 dump can haul up to 20 yards of material but they're a rarer truck to find. They have a unique transmission by today's standards (CAT 7155) which has little to no commercial support and known problems with age. The Big Cam 400 is a strong engine and axles strong too. The issue falls...

Make sure it's not the troop alarm or cable making the buzzer go off. It's usually attached to the head board of the bed and is known for this issue.

Everything GP has listed or soon to be listed is a hold over from last year. Uncle Sam does his annual audit and DLA/DRMO stops releasing items early December until about this time. There may be more FMTVs but equally not since GP is the lowest priority on released items and FMS (foreign...

It's all internal on the IP at that point - gummed up that is. It's just from the truck sitting and the new style diesel gumming it up. Yes, forcing Marvel Mystery Oil or a blend of your choice to hopefully free up the internals. I've had luck once on a really stuck pump by clamping off the fuel...

The 8.3 suffers from dry rot fuel lines, stuck fuel shutoff, and (if a tractor/dump/wrecker) bad fuel tank selector switch. These are your most common problems. As of the past two years I've seen a large trend in stuck IPs for this engine due to the fuel and lack of operation. There are a few...

Having shipped multiple items form Hawaii I can sum it up: transportation is high, Hawaii is very aware of MVs on public roads and has banned them for non-residents, port/ship regulations about leaks is high (and MVs love to leak), also rust. So best to window shop and buy state side unless it's...

Hey.. would you grab that for me while you're there.. aww never mind. rofl I'll go grab it next week or something.

The new owner is going to hate to find out those are Chinese doors. :censored:

SF-97's are magical and wonderous in the sense that they are never consistent nor can you peek behind the curtain to see how the sausage gets made. They do owe you a full title as you paid for. They should be frequently reminded it's owed to you. The question for you is do you know if your HMMWV...

The item will say "parcel eligible" and they will charge you what ever they decided on check out. If not, you must either pick up in person or schedule an LTL freight carrier for pick up.

Finally! A solution to backing these things into a parking spot. :p

You PCB is failing and causing your issue. Give it some love taps with a hammer to see if it turns off with the levers in the off position. Replace at when able . Also, Jbulach is correct with his ground diagnostics. It's working as intended. Ground is a ground in this regard. Remove both.

Tires: inspect for weather cracking and make a judgement call. Cracks on the sidewalls are a no-go. Minor surface cracking on the thickest part of the tread can be acceptable but should be changed soon. Front tires must be the best tires for safety. Drive safe, drive slow(er) than normal. Air...

Hello fellow M10A owner! Good looking units and the solid green one was probably a Tooele Depot rebuild I'm guessing (I had two). These machines are tough but some parts are hard to find. Oddly enough, some parts still make their way out of surplus so grab them when you can. I'll keep one in the...

I knew Jimmie and I have a friend who helped him sell his estate MVs. If you want a closer inspection of the M109 let me know. I'm in Dallas so if you're passing through and need help I'm available.

Make sure you change the default cruise control speed from 255 mph. Not like it would ever reach that even falling out the back of a plane. rofl

Get it to Wes's place near Memphis, TN and load it on my Globe trailer. It's coming to Dallas which is about 45 minutes away from Corsicana.

I like that chart and it confirms my feelings on ECO hubs - the 1:1 ratio is too tall for our trucks and isn't worth the compromise in my opinion. ramdough has it right with his 3.07 gears as the Cat 3126 recommended highway cruise rpm is 2000rpm for economy up to 2200 rpm for performance. Max...

He made it home safe yesterday. I don't want to steal his spotlight so we'll wait for his post.
