old post ... without revisiting the entire string i believe he bought it

... except when it's my ex-wife :ROFLMAO:

my father spent the final weeks of the war in Germany and stayed afterwards as part of the Constab until late-1947 or early 1948 , i forget. He talked highly about the ford jeeps , some having the script, and mentioned the time he unknowingly grabbed a 4-wheel-steer from the motor pool to go...

that's rusty? you should see some of my "wonder-wheels" , everyone wonders how the fenders and doors stay attached !:LOL: about half the fleet are rescues from town and county highway depts that apparently don't know there's such a thing as a water hose nice workhorse by the way , and so...

1: i've successfully done the old metal ones but only in the sense of a decent clean & lube was all they needed 2: i've have several plastic ones doing same as yours but sometimes a clean & lube doesn't do the job and that's as far as i go, don't have time to fuss with them more than that ...

sometimes after a january thaw the lower corn fields flood and then as they drain they freeze over leaving a few inches of perfect ice on the ground.. Back when my M38"A5" had very-wide tires i would take it out to do 2WD ice ballet , get a 500ft running start, crank the wheel and let 'er twirl...

actual resistor

1: the resistor reduces voltage to the coil , IIRC .. 2: it's been so long since i had a jimmy i have forgotten what pieces are in its ignition system .. On my 5-ton gassers it's regular practice to keep a spare resistor or two in the glove box because when they burn out it's all over now...

tore deeper into the cadaver PT pump today but not into the main body .. the suction gear pump can come off the main body in one easy piece , although a previous post above shows the gear pump "halved" to expose the gears the gear pump's driveshaft pushes easily in/out of the main body ...

when i saw the underside it immediately hit my instinct to grab a rag and grease gun ! :LOL:

it worked fine for me while it lasted .. I didn't even bother to remove the return spring
