    Battery/Starter Problem

    No I mean the booster pump on the side of the IP. My truck doesn't have an FDC. The booster pump has a double lip seal that can give out. This causes fuel to mix with the engine oil that lubricates the IP.

    Battery/Starter Problem

    None of the surplus dealers sell them. There have been a few threads discussing them. I forget the make and model. Its not specific to the multi-fuel and actually requires some minor modification. Drilling the mounting holes a size larger if I remember correctly. As far as my IP goes it is...

    Battery/Starter Problem

    Good to hear the damage was minimal. I believe if or rather, when my starter goes I'm going try the gear reduction style. Faster turnover speed and it weighs about 35 pounds. Much easier to manage. For your electrical needs, deuce or otherwise, you should check out dell city. They have...

    Battery/Starter Problem

    So did you go back with an o.e.m starter or did you go the gear reduction starter route?

    Glad to hear you figured out your issue dip.

    Super Single wheels for M35

    Boyce wants around 1200 for one with back glass. Plus freight. So not cheap. Worth it to me though. Especially since I can't find a metal one close enough to pick up and the surplus dealers want the same money for a metal one also. So I figure just go fiberglass and be done.

    Starter stays engaged

    Start by unhooking the start button. They can hang.

    Super Single wheels for M35

    Ah nevermind. Thanks though. As far as the hard top issue... I want one too. I believe I'm going to get a fiberglass one from boyce. No dents, no RUST!!!

    is it the injector pump?

    "Ip" stands for injector pump. To check and see if the fuel control rod is sticking you should start by tracing where your shut off cable ends at the injector pump. There will be a squarish cover with 2 screws holding it on directly to the left of where the cable hooks to the plunger. Remove...

    Super Single wheels for M35

    Wow that's a good price. Also, a good looking truck. Who does those wheels? A buddy of mine is looking for some.

    Super Single wheels for M35

    There are many sources of wheels. Just keep searching and you will find some closer. A3 wheels, mrap, fmtv, and 5 ton wheels can all be recentered to fit the deuce. A3 wheels are a direct fit but generally fetch the highest price due to their semi-elusive availability. There is of course...

    M109 She Beast is down - Fuel System Failure

    The in tank pump is also supposed to fill the secondary filters. If it pushes fuel to the primary filter then the pump is working. I suggest pulling the in tank pump and checking the fuel line that goes from the pump to the top of the tank. It seems to me you have a leak that is small enough...

    More weatherproof storage, my version....

    I like the idea. Too bad my truck has 395's and one trip off road and those canisters would get torn loose.

    Ouverson axle shafts warning

    Thrust washers would have made the shaft even tighter in that knuckle. I bet they deleted the thrust washers to make room for the larger shafts and u joints. They only thing I can think of is the seal not being seated far enough. Either that or the retainer is out of spec. Which is possible...

    Didn't Ouverson delete the thrust washers to make room for the larger shafts and joint s?

    M35a3 air psi problems

    You should also check the air priority valve on the air tanks. This device can prevent full pressure build if it is stuck closed. It looks sort of like a pressure regulator.

    Ouverson axle shafts warning

    There is a difference depending on the inner seal retainer you have. The old c.v. style axles had a thicker retainer than the newer u-joint style retainer. However, he definitely has the u-joint retainer. In fact, it appears he has the updated high performance seals I run in my truck. Those...

    Air ride rear suspension idea

    Ditto. Sometimes a little out of the box thinking is required along with a bit of imagination. None of this is rocket science. Also there is absolutely nothing special about a deuce when it comes to suspension or customization. Its just a truck. Almost anything you can think of has already...
