    Anyone know someone to do mechanic work/diagnosis on a deuce in Oklahoma?

    True but it's not always a hose.

    Oil all over motor, where should I start looking?

    That strongly depends on what antifreeze you use. I use OAT antifreeze and it specifically says NOT to use a coolant filter because the sca's are not compatible with OAT coolant. Also OAT coolant does not require the testing and sca recharge every 6 months. Though if you prefer old fashioned...

    What size are the threads on m35a2 brake lines

    I know the hard line is the same size going into the tee as the male end of the flex hose. I'm wanting to say 5/16 but that could be wrong.

    What size are the threads on m35a2 brake lines

    Is this for a bobber? Cause the rear flex lines are double male. All 3 front flex lines are male into the wheel cylinder and female bulkhead fittings going into the hardlines. I just had all 5 lines redone at my local hose shop. Im trying to remember what sizes everything was. I just took...

    What size are the threads on m35a2 brake lines

    Are you having fittings custom machined? Cause a hose shop should know what inverted flare fittings are.

    Ideal Tire setup on M35a2

    395's all tbe way. Steering, ride, top speed, and traction are all far better than 9.00x20's. And it just looks fantastic.

    Oil all over motor, where should I start looking?

    You could be right. I know the engine has replaceable liners but I'm unsure if coolant comes in contact with them. Either way, proper coolant needs to be used.

    Thats encouraging. Though nothing ever seems to be strait forward.

    Oil all over motor, where should I start looking?

    Anything formulated for diesel engines. Standard auto antifreeze does not contian the additives necessary to prevent cavitation inside wet sleeve diesels.

    I am interested also. I have an air o matic on the way.

    Don't run it too long with just water. Cavitation bubbles can form around the cylinder sleeves and your engine can get much hotter than your temp guage says. Also don't use regular automotive anti freeze.

    If you have water and oil everywhere I'm inclined to think blown head gasket.

    Odd electrical issue??

    Voltage vs. amperage. Just because your getting enough voltage doesn't always mean your getting enough amperage to run the motor.

    Odd electrical issue??

    I know but he said he believed the wipers and heater were from an a3 in the op. However if it was mounted on the fender then yes it was an a2 heater. A3 wipers ground to the windsheild frame. At least thats where mine are grounded. Hook everything back up and run a temporary ground back to...

    A3 heaters are under the dash. Do all of your guages and guage backlights work?

    M35A2 air pack questions

    It might would work but between the very hot air coming from the compressor and the engine heat I would be afraid of damaging the dryer. The long run from the compressor to near the tanks gives the air a chance to cool down. Plus theres no engine heat. I do agree that if you were to high...
