    Anybody ever see one suck air into the fuel *here* ?

    Not yet. Not my truck. The guy is out of town til the end of September, and getting the IP rebuilt probably isn't high on his list of priorities even then. I'll update this post when its resolved, one way or another.

    M35A3 Tire pressure Opions

    The tires themselves are probably rated 110psi or so. The wheels and o-rings are rated 65psi if I remember correctly. So 65psi is the max that tire/wheel/o-ring can be inflated to without exceeding rating of some components. Maxing out pressure reduces rolling resistance and maximizes tire...

    M35A3 Tire pressure Opions

    If tire life is the only consideration, then I'd run them at 65psi until/unless I saw the center of the tread wearing faster than the edges.

    Anybody ever see one suck air into the fuel *here* ?

    I considered that. But going with just a hose from a jug to the IP leaves just one connection. It has to be the IP. Which is now pulled and being rebuilt. I'll update this when resolved. Thanks

    Buying a humvee off of gov planet

    You really really want to drive one before you take the plunge. It sounds like you were never in the military and have never been in one. Descriptions don't do it justice. The build priorities on these are completely different than a civvy vehicle. Based on some of your comments in other...

    Fuel bleeding down

    Pinholes in the rubber lines. They won't leak fuel out, but they'll allow loss of prime.

    53 michelin xzl tires

    I like to use them all the way around on 939series trucks. They make centering the hemtt wheels easier.

    Anybody ever see one suck air into the fuel *here* ?

    With the engine drinking clean fuel out of a jug through a newly made 4300psi hose, having bypassed the rest of the fuel system up to that point, still seeing overt and blatant air bubbles in the returned fuel. With the entire fuel system intact, pressurizing the fuel tank doesn't show...
