ATF is my go-to! Glad you got going. The well nut doesn't need to be to tight. That is a great idea with the seal washer like the CTIS banko bolt. I may actually add these to the kit to this if you are saying it works better in some applications. I have installed a lot of these without issue...

Don't overthink it. Even though the injection pump is a very precise piece of equipment, as long as you don't bang it up, it is fairly simple. I use ATF. Take it apart, let is soak for a few hours or overnight. Then, use something like a toothbrush & brake cleaner. Soak again. Then, reassemble...

:cool:When I get the first video edited, I will be back to post about it. Waiting on some parts & stuff to come in.

I plan on it! Already recorded most of what I need to so I can make a Part 1. :)

Everyone, Finally got myself one of the new generation AMMPS MEP 1040 generators. Is marked as a "parts" unit that didn't power or anything when slave cable was hooked up. All I've done is look at it & get it unloaded. Took the batteries out & collected the loose stuff inside...

Anybody come up with a nice list for the body hardware like the TQG's? I just got one of these finally & it's I need of some. They're pretty specific. If not, I will figure it out eventually.

This is what will happen if the linkage comes off most of the time. It will empty the fuel filters as they're slightly above the injection pumps, so it knows no better & keeps going until starved. If you have a siphonage issue, you probable have something more serious going on. In my opinion...

Good thinking outside the box.

I have rebuilt quite a few of the wheel valve assemblies. The filters, even when they look okay, tend to restrict air flow. Easy way to see if they are the culprit it to remove them all around & give it a try. They generally get destroyed when removed as per design. The last issue I found on my...

Possible you have an imbalance somewhere. When you have a system running at 80psi, it is much more sensitive to kinks and/or obstructions between the wheel valve (s) and the quick release valves. Any air left because of this will make the system think it was commanded to deflate. I had this...

I've updated the listing for the Tee's slightly again. For some reason, the claculated shipping with eBay & that one listing has been a NIGHTMARE for me. Worked with the technical side to try & resolve it so hopefully when the buyer purchases everything together in the cart, it SHOULDN'T make...

Yeah, it's a tank! Genuine issue military "cans" (even though the new ones are plastic) have notches at the bottom so those bolts at the bottom will not rub. Something I didn't think to talk about in the video. Similar to how the mount itself has the bolt heads not flush.

No big deal. Confirming the backwards comparability is good enough. Thank you!

I have a few of those adapters already. When I see things cheap, like wires & what not, I grab them. Seems our minds were on the same track. In my head, I was thinking of going cannibalizing a serial connection for the radios I have... got a few. My challenge is the mapping. Guess I'll need to...

I'm drown back to this thread... I got myself in the same situation as OP now. Got some Falcon II I'm wanting to work in the Falcon III VAA. @aleigh , did you perfect your 3D printed adapter there? I'm my head, I thought this would be ideal. I'd like to make my VAA able to go back to the...

Yes, it stays into the 100deg range at night in summer & in the single digits in the winter. With people in an enclosed space, it gets over 120deg inside very quick... at night. You can imagine daytime! Ended up putting a second window A/C in. I had a Honda for a bit and it hated it. Inverter...
