    Turn/Tail Light Problem

    I'm having an odd, intermittant problem with my 1010 lights. My tail lights have completely stopped working (brake lights still fine) and my turn signals work part of the time. They will even work at different times during the same drive. 4 way flashers still work all the time (so not a bulb...

    Spare Tire

    Just remember it's back there. If you "bump" it or somebody else "bumps" you, your tailgate is toast.

    Wanted: Deuce Mechanic + Body Shop in Austin

    Lonestar MVPA meets next Wed at Camp Mabry. Show up and talk to some of the other deuce owners (there is a growing, and I mean GROWING number of us). I can certainly help you install the light switch and show you around the winch (what appears wrong with it?), and give you pointers on doing...

    M35A2 from Ft Riley KS to Austin TX

    My point is you should have some knowledge of the vehicle or have someone along that could help (so I agree with shipping). I suggest you think about joining the Lonestar MVPA. The next meeting is May 19 at Camp Mabry. Not sure of the exact number but there are at least 10 deuces in the group...

    M35A2 from Ft Riley KS to Austin TX

    But be sure one of you has SOME mechanical ability or speed dial to a friend that does. Between myself and TexAndy we've probably recovered, or helped recover, 20 deuces in the last year. Out of all of those only 1 hand any significant problems when driving it off the lot. But if you're going...

    M1010 - No more DUVAC!!

    DUVAC is removed and the top alt is wired straight to the 24v bus bar and the top IGN is wired to the bottom IGN. I'm getting 30v coming in to the batt equalizer and 16.2 going out. Maybe need to turn down the top alt regulator?

    M1010 - No more DUVAC!!

    Well back to square 1 or at least 1.5. LED is not coming on. Front batt is charging at 16.1 while the rear is at 14.6. The LED came on once this morning as I saw it through the open hood while I was starting it and then it went out and hasn't been seen since. Any way to test the...

    M1010 - No more DUVAC!!

    The "master" switch was what we thought the culprit was to begin with so tried with it "on" and "off." I'll run the system for a couple of days to see what happens. Right now, as long as I'm not frying the front battery I figure I'm a mile ahead and just need to keep tweaking things to get it...

    M1010 - No more DUVAC!!

    Well got everything in today (huge THANK YOU to TexAndy for helping out) and it looked good. Started it up, LED was on, front batt was charging at 14.6 (it was a little low to begin with) and rear at 14.2. No smoke - always a good thing - and we shut it down congratulating ourselves for...

    M1010 - No more DUVAC!!

    I'm getting ready to dive into mine tomorrow. I have the circuit diagram for the charging system so I'm just going to have a go myself and then beg for help if I blow something up. I'm planning to run the 12v to the 12v junction block (center left on the firewall). Is this where you ran...

    Just won a M1010

    Kyle - I'm sticking with the tan as there is too much overspray on the mouldings to try and switch back to the 3 color. The tan is a bit unique although we're seeing an awful lot of it around Ft Sam due to the current theatre of operations. Ian - with the 80amp equalizer I should be okay with...

    Vets Fighting MS West Coast VA Road Trip

    Pulling the plug on the trip this year. Still too many bugs to get worked out on the 1010 to risk it and try to keep to a schedule. If I put it off until next year I can take my time and not worry about trying to be at the MVPA Nat'l Convention on a certain date. That will also give me the...

    Just won a M1010

    Got the batt equalizer yesterday. Didn't realize it was going to be quite as heavy as it is! Being the "fly by the seat" type person I didn't order the circuit breakers thinking I could just get them locally. I can (at $50/per) but haven't picked them up yet. ASE doesn't have any 100amp...

    Loss of enginpower not gaining speed

    I have what I believe is a similar problem on my M1010. At highway speed if I take my foot off the accelerator to slow down there is no accelerator until it drops down below 35mph and then it jumps and is fine. I was told it was a sticky governor but haven't delved in to it more.

    Attn Ft Sill Deuce Winners 3-25-10

    What was funny was the lady telling bystanders "they think they're going to start that thing." I think she was kind of mad when it did start. On the "local" issue, Andy's was marked Delaware National Guard.

    Storage Tank Dimensions

    I just picked up a mobile pumping set up with storage tanks and was looking for the dimensions of everything. Basically wondering if I can get the whole set up on a 16' trailer or not. Of course the tanks won't be stacked on each other like the picture.

    M60 Mount?

    Are you planning any more runs on these? I know I need one and it seems like everyone I talk to wants one as well.
