I pulled the battery's from the 003a to put into a mep002a that I was selling. Put two battery's from the tenders into the Mep003a went to prime and run heard a couple of clicks then nothing. So checked battery's one was 12.5v other 8v. So replaced the bad one, now have 25.3v. The glow plugs...
Question is the fuel passages in the head between injectors, what is the best way to clean them? Sent the fuel tank out for cleaning, it will be a few weeks before I get to all the lines. Just trying to get my ducks in a row.
Truck starts and runs great, however with normal braking it dies. Starts right back up. I unhooked the lock up solenoid for 5th gear on the transmission, made no difference. I shifted in to neutral while beginning to brake, still stalls out. Could the PT pump be causing this as the injectors...
The truck has sat about 3 years, (Nhc250 , started right up) needing a water pump. Put the new water pump on all was good. While sitting idling it started acting like it was running out of fuel, plenty of fuel in the tank. Replaced the fuel filter and primed ,took it a while to start, it has...
Truck is a M927 non abs. I can hear air leaking from the air intake. When I depress the treadle valve the leak goes away. I've checked break cans, Q2 Valve, valve under the step on driver side, no leaks into the vent lines and PPV valve, service rear glad hand had no leak. What am I...
M813 that came from GSA had working brakes, 6 mo later I move the truck and pedal goes to the floor. With the master cylinder now being empty how does one determine if it has DOT 3 or Dot 5 in the system? It had been a VFD truck, is it possible they received the truck before the Military...
Other than different part numbers what is the difference? Is a m939 air compressor backwards compatible? I've seen some listings say it only fits m939 truck, while others are listed as fitting both.
I have searched, seems some have had success and others not with using a winch to pull over trees. I have three that I want to pull or fall, so I can widen the driveway. My concern is power lines on the other side of the road, otherwise falling them would be no big deal. Largest of the three...
My rotochamber #9 was MIA when I bought truck, now have a replacement in hand. My question is the yoke off the clutch is 180 out, I pulled cotter pin and washer thought maybe it could go on correct or 180 out. I saw a nut and bolt on the shaft that the yoke rides on, can it be moved for...
My m816 is missing some air lines at the winch/wrecker controls at the rear of the truck. Fig 387 of the 34p-2 is not the best of where they run to. Does any one have any pic's of where of where the lines are running to?
This is on a USMC m116a3 trailer. I'm trying to find the same cannel to put on a m1101 that has no bed, to mount a mep002a on it. I have looked in the TM, not finding anything. Have searched for U or C channel online, closest I find is sign post. Any ideals?
Looking at a M816 but it is missing the control handle assembly but the hydraulic valves are there. I know some wrecker parts can be gold plated so my question is; any idea what a set of control handles would go for?
Thanks,
Charlie
From the TM is this true? (3) The XM979 and XM1061 can be towed safely by a vehicle without airbrake connections through the
use of the inertia brake system.
My m931a1 came from a reset with the battery relocation kit installed. My question is when you use the steps to get in the truck on said box it has a bounce to the battery box. Is this normal? I can't find and loose nuts or bolts.
Thanks
Charlie
Just wanted to say that he and his crew went above and beyond loading me out. They spent major time getting my bumper so that the missing shackles would bolt on for tie downs, After that MS heat had taken its toll on me. Even stopped traffic so I could get out. I can't say enough great things...
Yes DH i did search, found a good thread about the M1959 field stoves that was very useful. Did not find any info pertaining to going prices, thanks in advance.
Picked up yesterday from Rock Island, IL. GL rep there was great, had the set on the forklift ready to go when we got there. It was listed as scrap in last weeks sale, so it was a roll of the dice. Showing just under 1500 hrs. All fluids were drained, but today she fired to life on the first...
