    M1152/M1123 Startability

    Is the glow plug light on? we had a HUGE problem with the controllers not working on our 1116's. Give a tap to the controller before starting and power on, also make sure the driver has his foot to the floor if below 32 and 1/2 way if above. Another trick is to plug the exhaust pipe with a...

    What does this mean?? Found some fluid drips *pic*

    Yeah I was going to say something but who cares.... Jump in a 14K truck and hit the road knowing you have a MAJOR problem..... Looks like another Flower shop is going to get killed... You old SS timers will know what I am talking about.

    What does this mean?? Found some fluid drips *pic*

    That does NOT look to be a wheel cylinder. If it was you would see dripping from the drum and not the axle boot. Looks to be like a bad axle seal and leaking boot or leaking flex brake line. Get the TM and read up on it and how to change it.

    8$ airl filter

    The Fram air filter at Autozone is around 8 bucks..... unless your desert racing I don't think you need the $50.00 washable type. A paper filter is all you should need in a daily driver. I stopped using the $$ stuff a long time ago and even in the super late model race car we went back to a...

    M35-A2 Low Idle

    O boy.. you do NOT adjust the idle by playing with the cable.... there is a set screw and it takes less then 30 seconds to do it the correct way. Is it me or do most of the guys here NEVER read or look at the TM's and are just flying by night?

    Lift/tires M1031.

    Just make sure your 37 inch tires is rated for the load of that box. Most off road tires are load D or less. You will want a E tire. Also with a 4-5 inch lift you should be able to run 37's with out chopping the truck to smithereens. Here is a truck a member did ; maynard83.. its a M1010 but...

    Won a NOS prelube system on ebay

    O boy... I would get the TM's and read up on the oiling system and where the ports are. If you use the spin on it will NOT allow you to simply slap on that adapter in that old kit of yours. Take a good look at Stretch's post and what he did on his deuce.

    M35-A2 Low Idle

    you are able to adjust the idle.. there is a set screw. Other things to think of.... was it cold? was it warmed up to temp? how are the fuel filters? Kinda hard to diagnose over a Post on a forum but does not sound out of line. The best thing to do is Get hold of the TM's (repair and operating...

    Pulling power question

    4* ATDC? I think you mean BTDC and you might want to push that a little more to around 6-8 depending on how she acts. If the timing is off a engine will loose a lot of power.. if it was off like you say could be around 50%. Reset your oil pump and distributor, set your timing to 4* BTDC and go...

    gas mileage

    All of my 09's got over 20 MPG's.. My last one we pushed 28 out if it a couple tanks, but most of the time mid 20's. If you are down in to the teens time to do a little PMCS. Change the fluids (diff, trans, t case) fuel and air filter. Clean and adjust the rear brakes and clean the front brake...

    Fan Belt Problem on recovery

    V Grove belts do not stretch. You should know that being a "Tech". V grove belts have nylon belts like a tire in them to prevent the belt from stretching. Yes Gates makes a stretch fit belt but that is a 4-8 rib and have been made sense 2009. V belts are not. All you wanna be techs do research...
