    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    I also would spend some time making sure the pickup tube in the tank is clear. According to an article I have in my archives the tube has no filter on the end and sits about 1/2" above the bottom of the tank. Depending on how clean/dirty your tank is it may be clogged. In the article they...

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    The fuel pump has drain holes in the bottom, the manual makes mention of this and stated if fuel is leaking from them the seals have perished. Just like a weep hole in the bottom of a water pump dripping indicating a seal has gone bad.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Yes, Utah. Having a mortar kit sure would be a sweet display for a rally. I have ever only seen pictures of them in the manual, never in the field, wonder if they ever actually fielded them?

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    Here is a picture of the drivers seat showing all the hardware that it uses, 6 male snaps to retain the seat cushions, 2 document hanger brackets and 1 lift the dot stud for the bottom of the document bag. Both seat buckets are the same so if yours are missing check the other seat. The...

    M151A2 fuel pumps - commercial replacement?

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    It's a lot bigger and heavier than I thought it would be, would make a great self defense tool.

    high idle when started

    Check the adjustment on the cold start solenoid, back the screw out so it just touches then try it and screw in as needed.

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    I was mistaken on the wire identification, after looking closer at the picture the wire that was loose is the + connection, the smaller wire with the Packard connector is the sense wire. Still same outcome as reported before, no fault of the electrical system will cause your engine to run...

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    I don't think it would damage either, the worst it might do is arc weld the stud a little bit.

    WSUCougarx's M561 Gama Goat Acquisition and Build Thread

    The 3-53 requires no power to stay running, it's all mechanical, once the starter gets her going it doesn't care about power. That wire is the sense wire for the alternator, it tells the alternator to "turn on". Being loose it may have been turning the alternator on and off causing the engine...
