    Maryland doesnt want me to own a Deuce!

    Yup. In 2013 Mine was registered as Historic as a "Jeep" since it's a Kaiser-jeep and the weight: 000000 lbs. :D 12 Minute Tag and Title in Glen Burnie is fantastic to deal with. I have only been to the MVA once when moving to MD for a DL and will avoid it at any cost. Hope you got your...

    I want to thank you. I took the time to check my tire pressure. They averaged 20-30 psi aua. If your post didn't stick with me i may have just hit the road without checking, what a dummy i was. It took me more than 30 min to fill tires to 50 psi with little my pancake compressor. I take for...

    Multifuel Deuce Injector Pump Lube

    I run XDP power plus in mine. I would say the injectors are 50% quieter (less clatter) and idles smoother when using it compared to plain regular ultra low sulfur diesel. Always starts within 3 seconds of cranking in 30+ degree F weather. Cheap insruance to protect your injector system...

    Are C and D turbos still manufactured?

    Im pretty sure Sick Liter (6.0) is an electric variable geometry turbo (VGT). Hence the 6.0 whistle? ETA Correction: There were VGT and non-VGT versions.

    oil leaking from front of cylinder head

    Thanks. I have been meaning to start a thread on this last summer. Mine just started leaking last year. Runs fine, just the passenger side block is oily as well as the axle now. Dipstick reads the same, but coolant slowly disappears. Waiting to hear results of retorqueing head bolts/nuts.

    1947 Ward Le France M1 Heavy Wrecker

    I figured I would get a warning for linking the truck sale. So if anyone wants the link, send me a PM or if mods ok-it, I will post it. Really? It is amazing how well its survived, she needs a proper restoration and to retire in a covered barn.
