    New Engine Time?

    Could be valve seals or piston rings. I would not say you need a new one. Just re-ring and seal the one you have. you can do it for under 300 bucks.

    Converting M35A2 non turbo into Turbo?

    Yes you can put a turbo on a NA truck. The military converted most of the N/A's to turbo to clean up the exhaust smoke. All you have to do is bolt on the parts and you really should re-time the engine to the turbo setting but I think a couple members left the timing alone and not a problem...

    Water in Fuel

    Well that is a VERY smart thing you keep the TM on you. You never know when you will need them. If all your lines were new and tight there are not too many places where water can get in and really if you were only under for a very short amount of time. The CUCV fuel cap is NOT vented. I would...

    Water in Fuel

    Why would you not drain the Fuel filter first? it takes about one min to do. I take it you did not know your truck had a fuel drain and if I a betting man did not read the TM or manuals.....

    Transport for deuce needed!

    For the cost of shipping a deuce from WI to CA will run you a full load and about 4 bucks a mile! I would have got one a tad closer to home If I had to have it shipped. I just picked two up from TX and we drove them back to WI (1200 miles) and it still ran me about $1K per truck in fuel

    My first MV Looking at the M816

    never owned a MV and you want to jump in to the big boys? Well I have a nice M813 with lockers and 1400 tires.. it does need a little TLC but a good truck.... but really a deuce or even a cucv is the best way to start and even a deuce is a big jump.
