Made a little progress on the dump today. After a little PMCS, a lot of grease and some hydraulic oil, we have a functioning dump bed!!!!!!!!! Next will be the leaking wheel cylinder when it comes in!!!!!!!!

Offending wheel cylinder looks to be the passenger front. I'd like to give this truck back in road running condition so the new owner can make his recovery. How much work, what part number's, etc are needed. Do any parts stores have the wheel cylinder's for the front axle of the 5 tons? I...

10-4, air cleaner looked fairly new and the canister was clean. I drove the truck this afternoon and it ran pretty good. I kept it really slow on just my dirt road as the truck seems to have a leaking wheel cylinder. It has nearly no brakes until just at the bottom of the pedal travel. They...

Hooked up the fuel lines to the filter and driver's side tank, gave her a sniff of ether and she's back up and running again. I don't see any leaks from the tank selector valve or anywhere else so the truck should be good to go. If it were my truck, I'd still probably replace the rubber hoses...

The TM searching seemed to answer my last question. The fuel that's coming out must be return fuel and it's coming right out since the lines aren't hooked to the tank select valve. Makes me start to question whether it was sucking in air at that valve since I fixed the air leak that was...

I plugged the fitting leading to the primer assembly. Now the truck starts, revs and idles decently. Now onto the fun task of replacing tank switch hoses. Currently the tank switch is bypassed but it still sprays fuel from the outlet side of the valve. What is pressuring the fuel and causing...

I drained the fuel filter (lots of water). Now I can't get the system to prime. I don't think the primer on the dash works. I took it apart and lubed the inside of it but had no luck even after about 10 minutes of pumping. I'm considering capping the fitting that currently has the plastic...

The owner did bypass the tank selector valve and just has the driver's side tank connected to the fuel filter inlet. Can anyone provide a good Napa part # for the fuel filter? I'll be able to look at the truck a little more this afternoon and will try the simple stuff like draining the fuel...

I helped another member recover a M817 out of Albany. The truck made it to my house (15 Miles) but is running poorly. It will only run at full throttle and if you let the clutch out too quickly and bring the rpm's down, it will stall. It is hard to crank without ether as well. Please steer...
