The "loud siren" is probably the low air pressure alarm.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I agree it's good to have and I will just use a piece of tape to try and tone it down a bit.Yeah, it's loud, but it's to prevent dumb private from starting to drive the truck like that and getting in an accident.
See this thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?130222-Critical-FMTV-PM-not-covered-in-TMsAnother issue I'll have to address, I did try to raise the cab manually and the hydraulic fluid came out. I didn't get a picture but I will locate on a TM where and I'll have to rebuild that part. It's located in between the spare and the cab right in the middle.
You're the man. I will pick that o-ring up at lunch today. I wasn't sure what to call it.
Been reading them all morning, I'm pretty over whelmed right now looking through 100s of pages.sorry double post... Again. looking thru the TM will explain all the components on your truck.
I printed off just the -10 and it took 2 huge folders and a couple of reams of paper. Obviously there's some stuff in there that you don't have to read and there are a number of intentionally blank pages but the basics are there to help you out. Using the -24p can help identify parts that are either there or give you a good indication as to what's missing. That one takes a little getting used to as you have to find the specific section, identify what you're looking for, then page ahead to find the actual part name that corresponds to the number in the picture. Since I've probably got a couple of weeks yet before I can put my hands on my new M1078 the only thing I can do is live vicariously through threads here and sit and read the TMs.Been reading them all morning, I'm pretty over whelmed right now looking through 100s of pages.
definitely the cold start canister. It's available from Napa, part# 33118. That reminds me I need to replace mine (it's empty). BTW, it was good to meet you at the Denton rally. Look forward to seeing this truck!Also been looking through TMs for this missing part. Anyone recognize what's supposed to be strapped there?
Thanks for the PN. It was nice to meet you as well. Since you're local I'll send you my cell # so we can meet up once I get this truck together.definitely the cold start canister.
