Resurrecting 816

kubotaman The TM calls it a VS governor. I spoke with a guy at a local injector shop and he said the pump is considered a dual governor pump and that the second governor can't be added to a single governor pump.

Well thanks to a little side work and a fellow Steel Soldiers member it looks like I might have this running a lot sooner than I thought. Big thanks to Floridanson for hooking me up with the missing radiator, fan and master cylinder. The injector shop I went to is building me the pump I need for the truck as well. A few more weeks and I might get to hear it run. I fixed the tank switching valve and got filterers so I can service it before I start it. Just need to order belts and radiator hoses. Again BIG thanks Floridanson.

Rock on. Looking forward to photos and Youtube video.

While I was repairing the tank switching valve I decided to make a new plate for it. I probably could have just got a new one but now I have a stainless steel one.

Impressive!

I mean simple and all, but still:

- Nice work (even the label stamping)!!

Decided it would be best to go ahead and replaced the bearings on the fan Idler while it was all apart before the radiator goes in.
