ugh. the tire company says one of the O rings isn't holding. no spare now. hideous.

so...spin off, fill new one with diesel, spin on, prime and go? sounds TOO easy.....nothing ever goes that easy for me....ever. aua

Sorry about the mis-spell in the title.

If I can, I am going to try to change my fuel filter before I drive home 450 miles. Since I am flying down, I'd like to know what I need for filters and tools. The TM says 'change it' and gives instructions on priming in section 3, but I need to know what tools, etc, because I am going to be...

well, finally going to attempt the recovery this weekend with my son. got 7 395's mounted up on it. tires to 55PSI. got to tie off the soft top, which flaps like mad in the back at speeds over 40 going to do a fuel filter change before driving it home. Also plan on keeping the tank 1/2 full...

That's why I didn't want to be without a spare, and I will have some $ if I need the tire changed if it proves necessary. Thanks for sharing your experience. I am hoping there will be NO blowing snow!

I planned on 55PSI, and didn't want to chance a 450 mile trip without a spare, so I was trying to get the system as close to 'possibly functioning' as possible. I'm also not looking forward to trying to wrestle a 380 pound wheel and tire out of my 109's box if I need to change a tire, but that...

anyone know how to get a 395 to fit in the spare tire carrier? :)

Just called him, and he was very helpful. He's going to his 'box of CTIS parts' to see if he has what I need. Fingers crossed.....REALLY want to get my hands on my truck...so the money can really start flying out of my wallet :)

Does that have the line too? It just shows the valve in the picture and description, and there was only an answering machine when I called :(

Anyone with any recent contact since he left?

IN case anyone has pointers, it is for the left side middle axle. I also emailed tdealmeida@cmautomotive.com to see if he has a source.....

IN section 3-9 of that TM< there is an illustration of the CTIS valve, with a short line between the valve and the tire. Does anyone know where a line and nut set can be obtained? I have one with a crack. If it splits, I am out of luck. This isn't the one you have to take off to get the...

I am talking about lowering the tire from the carrier behind the cab. The shop comes at a recommendation from another member. I will pass this info on, and thank you to all who answered!

is that all? Don't you need a 1.5" impact socket just to get the wheels off?

I can say for a fact that I wish my Allison automatic was an OD unit, even after only 50 miles of driving my A3 :)

Sorry for the obvious question, but I am on my phone and can't search a TM. What tool is needed to get the spare tire on an A3 down? No tool kit in mine :( The tire company says they can't do anything without the tool.

I'd "settle" for the radiator cover, to start.

or title AND SF97. Out of curiosity, when I bought my truck in MD, I skipped out on the MD taxes (didn't know I'd owed them) and paid my sales tax on it when I registered it in my home state of Taxachusetts. Am I now considered a scourge and tax scofflaw? Is MD going to send me a bill?

that is simply....insane. nice truck, best of luck with it. I am pleased to be able to point out to my wife that "I" just bought an M109....look what I could have bought :p
