Thanks Clinto! The last two images are from that parking lot in Doswell, been there a couple of times. Makes me feel like an old fart not being able to participate. Those traffic lights will cut up the convoy, you really have to check the rear view mirror every time.

Very flattering, I think I spend too much time on this forum, it pre-empties any subject I would previously write about. Since joining this site, I have only written two articles, the biodiesel one and one on vehicle grounding and they were both pretty much done almost two years ago... Wonder...

Another first from the Meadows of Dan skunk works. :idea: A second FDC was installed to monitor leakage and to serve as a sending unit for a more sensitive Fuel Viscosity Meter. The FDC on the IP is now bypassed. The second unit, which is the one originally mounted on the Injection Pump, sits...

My M49A2C was also painted in 4-color MERDC pattern, have to dig deep for those pictures though.

Found these in my files. My son was playing with color schemes for his M37 a few years ago. He must have found them on-line, don't ask me where....

That's a good price, Mike. Without me looking, do you have them for the deuce also? Turns out they are the same ones used on my 8x8 too. :-)

Re: RE: Re: RE: Kirkersville fuel/and meeting stop Sure, be my guest.

I had signed up for the convoy, but am still trying to catch up with my non-MV related stuff and won't make Doswell. As a matter of fact, probably won't make it to Aberdeen at all, with the deuce in its current condition, the oil pressure is still lower than it should be and I may be pushing my...

You run the hose from the engine side of the T-stat to the filter and then from the filter to the water pump.

The TM's all call for glycol (the clear green stuff) and distilled water 50-50 plus 2 pints of additives. The additives may be labeled DCA or SCA. This is what I use.

The functions are there, but the old way was with relays that switched on and off very rapidly. See TM 9-8000 for description of operation. Images below from 1956 issue.

Have a great trip Mike and say hello to Dale when you get to Eureka.

You have to keep your sense of humor when this kind of thing happens, that's for darn sure.

#2, here is an image of the truck trailer rig circa 1970. About the foam, it's probably polyurethane, like what's used for building insulation.

The cargo version was designed to swim, generally without any preps. The cargo bed sides are all sealed with low pressure air. The cab is completely water proof with feed-through connectors and pressure sealed doors. Foam filled floatation chambers in the front help make up for the weight of the...

From an article in MVM issue 101 Feb 2004.

Lights turned on images. The pipeline truck bed comes with all the trimmings.

This series of trucks was designed to mil-spec from scratch and many little things show a better way to do it, as well as big things too. Here are some images of typical mil-spec solutions.

Perhaps some cat litter, saw dust or something to soak it up. Take it to the car wash...

Oh man! What a mess, I can just imagine, don't know what to say. Add some lye and methanol? My plans for Aberdeen are not as far progressed as yours Chris, perhaps you are better off leaving the WVO at your house and let me pick it up there. Currently I plan to arrive on Saturday and to leave...
