Pulled the head yesterday afternoon, put a smoke machine to it and atleast five exhaust valve seats are leaking. didnt both to test the intake side. Its headed to machine shop today. A couple of the cylinders (2 I think) looked like they had slight discoloration, but nothing I could feel with...

Alright, finally tracked down all the part numbers for the 12v ignition parts. Good news is, its got spark. Bad news: not alot of compression on a couple cylinders (4) Two of em are at 85# or better cranking, the others range between 30-50#. I pulled valve cover and alot of the rockers and...

Heres some pics of the critter now that its stopped raining for five minutes The grill and radiator are just in front of truck on the ground, pulled them to get to crank bolt easier

rotates smooth as butter. Gonna pull valve cover to make sure nothing wonky under there. Anyone know if just the round spring is available for the door latch?

ITS FREE!!!!!!!!!!!! I tried rocking the truck in gear (with help) and it broke loose. motor rolls right over with crank bolt and ratchet now! Made a huge mess with all the oil/etc in the cylinders but I dont care its free!

Topped em off this morning with mystery oil. Keep em filled and see if it starts weeping down through... Just filled crankcase/oil pan to the point where it ran out of front pan seal with a combo of oil, atf and PB blaster. Cylinders are filled to top with PB blaster and mystery oil. Now I...

I put five cans into the cylinders last night, we tried rocking it in gear (very lightly with another vehicle) I'm going to keep spraying into the cylinders and wait a week or two and try with a bar on crank bolt. When I tried that the first time it tightened the bolt and I know enough to quit...

Anyone got any hints to unstick a gasser engine?

I wish you were closer, I’d snap that up!

Awesome! Thanks

we put a bore scope in cylinders and they all look good, one had very light rust dots, barely visible to the eye, so Im hoping a little pb blaster in the hole and turn it over by hand itll free up.

gonna break out the mystery oil........ looks like motor must have stuck in the last few years. it was free four or five years ago. Wish me luck

Grabbed the generator and voltage regulator, the gauge cluster and also the three lever headlight switch and the taillights. The pulley was different, anyone got one they wanna sell?

Great news! Any leads on a pulley? Is voltage regulator or anything else interchangeable? Jeep is a rot box and in non saveable shape

Bolt is what I meant..... but thank you for the info

Anyone know if a 24v generator from a jeep is interchangeable with a deuce? The ones I found for sale list m38, m37 and m35 as fitment. I just happen to have one from an m38. But the one from the deuce is missing

Gonna roll it over by hand with plugs out

Finally got my first deuce towed to the shop today. Started snowing hard again so didn’t dig in very far yet. It’s relatively rust free for New England. Was converted to 12v at some point, not sure if that’ll stay or not. Got the truck from a buddy for free so I’m only in it for the tow bill...

Any idea what size the crank nut is on a reo gasser? I wanna put some oil in cylinders and turn motor over some before trying to start it as it’s been sitting awhile

how available are beds in the northeast? Or would it be easier to fab one up? they look pretty simple to make
