    I won a 934A1 last week.

    All the trucks we get have stars on the doors, hoods, and rear gate.

    M923A2 Idling RPM

    This could be right. My M923A1 would sometimes not return to idle. I checked at the pump and gas Pedal was not returning to the idle position. The spring was good so I checked the gas pedal in the cab and it was hangng up. I lubed the pin / pivot and it worked.

    M923A2 Idling RPM

    To find my leaks I wrapped a rag With tape around the air hose then just a little presure at a time pumped air in. I then followed the tubes to the pump and found the fuel seepage. I also would disconect the fuel tube at different points to check flow.

    M923A2 Idling RPM

    I understand what your thinking but my 931 would rev up but it was a no power type rev. Does it ever die after it revs up? Does it start hard? I would start with the easy stuff first as in filters and go from there. Hope I helped.

    M923A2 Idling RPM

    It sounds like it's sucking air. Try pressurizing the tank and look for fuel leaking from hoses. I have heard from other members that even pickup tubes in the tank can have problems.

    Everyone needs a military truck corner!

    WOW I'm surprised to hear of this in the USA. I thought we had restrictions here but thank God we don't have someone telling me I can't park what I own at my house! even if you had a shed and no one could see the truck?

    M923A2 Idling RPM

    Neither one of my 2 A2's do this or my M923A1 BUT my M931A1 did this and it was because it was sucking air from numerous places of fuel tubes from the tank to the first filter and even after the filter to the pump. The hoses look good but when you pressure test them I found more than 6 leaks...

    Michelin 365 XZL Very Bad Tire Shake

    I have had this happen and the tire man dismounted the tire and spun it. I still had a little bounce so he deflated it and moved the tire half a turn on the rim and it cured it 90%.

    what do you pull behind your 5 ton tractor?

    I pull my 432 APC with both theM923A1and M923A2. I really prefer the older A1 over the A2. You can feel the torque of the big block!
