How would these 2 problems be related?

too cool. BTW, I used to live on Brandon. Of course, that was before I bought the green beast...

it's gonna look like a million bucks pretty soon!:o

welcome to the site. We might have to have an OD green meet and greet!

Ask Chuck Norris. I heard that he can divide by zero.

there's other guys on here that make modern alternator brackets for the duece, you'll just have to search for it though. Wolverine technologies comes to mind, not sure why. Jersey jeep's is a pretty dang slick bracket, looks better than mine! His design won't allow you to add on an extra 12v...

put me on the list of the unfit owners. I'm too hard-headed to believe the propaganda at the pump regarding ULTRA-LOW sulfur diesel: "Recommended for all on-highway diesels." My engine runs quieter when I feed it a motor oil-diesel oil mix. To avoid having to face engine problems, or passing...

new pulley is needed. search the site for spidermarine and 21si, other members have contributed the necessary part # for the pulley. I think you'll need 8mm allen wrench, 15/16 combo wrench to install the pulley yourself.

A lot of guys use the delco 21si that Spydermarine.com sells, it's probably chinese, but it's not as finicky as the older/heavier leese-nevilles. Bonus on that model is that there is a post that you can draw 1/2 of regulated power from. I.e, 12 volts. Be advised, that alternatolr is shorter, and...

valve covers would be a good guess. I would also eyeball your intake manifold flame heater, it is prone to O-ring failure. I would verify that it's either plugged off (totally acceptable if you live in Northern Florida) or at least not leaking. If you start getting fuel puking out onto the...

I would say that as long as it looks and smells like oil, and the mechanic didn't complain about metal shavings in your oil at the last change, don't change it for at least 3,000 miles. Check it before every trip.

hey many miles do you have on the oil change? It can get to be expensive changing out the oil before it needs it, because it takes gallons, not quarts.

another thing to check when you're looking at the oil level is the oil itself, that's on the dipstick. You're looking for a milky or cloudy mixture, which could indicate water in the oil (blown gasket or cracked engine head). You can smell it, to see if it smell like diesel--that's a whole...

how about you take the bracket off and take it to the hardware store? Three bolts out, you're done in the engine compartment. Remember--Ace is the place.

hey, what's your oil level looking like?

orange caulking--might be permatex, which is a gasket sealer, sometimes used by itself as a gasket by many fine, few-toothed mechanics around where I grew up. Of course, if it's leaking oil like a sieve, it's probably not such a good fix. I think you have to let it cure a bit before bolting it...

F18HM has some good advice. If you've got access to a pressure washer, that's a plus, one that kicks out hot water even better. Just remember to respect the pressure, pressure washers have low volume/high pressures, so if you get it about 2 inches away from the part you're spraying you're going...

Hold on, what? :lost:

:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

Zeiss, just kidding about the "rare" 2x6, sometimes trucks get advertised on Ebay etc with a description like "rare convertible" or other bogus descriptions to explain why the duece they're selling is missing something desirable, or has had a drunken rattlecan paint job just before having...
