I guess it's now my turn to tackle FLU419 electrical issues.
The following have all quit working.
-Low air warning light
-Oil Pressure gauge
-Water Temp gauge
-Tachometer
Is there a common ground for the instruments? I have pulled the air intake tubing and pulled the fuse panels forward and...
I have now ordered some tires. Does anyone have a lead/ recommendation for the valve stems? I have get the distinct impression that the ones installed now are original. When I search for the part number for the valve stems (MS51368-7 from the parts manual ) Al I get is the never ending...
My truck was missing the front loader remote switch when I got it. I found one on eBay that matches the nsn but is black instead of white. I installed it & now I can raise/lower the front end loader from the backhoe operator’s position as intended.
I haven’t made as much progress with the truck as I would like but I did find a m796 bolster trailer at a price I couldn’t pass up. I have a lot of work left to do before I feel comfortable towing with the floozy on the street. Fortunately for me steelsoldiers member glcaines snagged it for me...

I am running into a dead end trying to follow the troubleshooting procedure in the TM as I do not have access to the...

Interior cleaned out
Exterior pressure washed more or less clean
White paint would not be my first choice, but it does open up some opportunities for fun with stickers...

Right now the start button in inoperable,. After reading through some of the troubleshooting steps in the tm and...
