I have owned two of these. Good trucks. Just used mine for parades and events. Mine would start really quick as soon as you pushed in the button on the dash. Would like to own one again someday.
Love the sense of humour just what I need ,miserable as hell here in Wales at the moment even though all my kit is running ,thanks for taking time to make film .
its still a beast!!!!! off topic question - isnt there a better / different fan we can install on these engines? Duramax?? Id like to upgrade and do some prevention
y ? i haul 5-6 ton rock in 95 degree heat on 55 mph roads up steep hills down to 5-6mph floored temps stay at 175 F no higher 25 loaded runs so far over a year
You're right. Took mine on a venture this past winter and it started running bad while going up a hill about half into my trip. Sounds like it's missing, no power, blowing whitish blueish smoke.exhaust burns your eyes like no other. I turned around and limped home at a top speed of about 30-35 mph. Still have yet to figure it out, but it starts right up.
Hello sir would you be able to show something on m936 bypassing the transfer case lockout , I understand stand the bad stuff that will happen if you hit low range driving but I'm the only one that drives and uses it . I only shift when stopped. I have a heck of a time shifting to neutral to to run the wrecker stuff then get back in gear, sometimes I just pump the brake to get rid of the air then it will shift . Just don't know air line to plug??? Thank you
Any idea where I could get a front cargo rack for a drop sides? Before you headed overseas I saw there were ones in your yard. Not too big a deal. I plan to weld up new ones. But I am curious.
@@gordonjohnson405 if I was going to build some, I'd post on one of the groups looking for just the troop seat hardware ( basically just the metal bits without wood) and then use 3/4"×3" aluminum rectangular tubing for all the slats. 1/16" wall would work great.
@tacticalrepair Thanks. I already built the seats. Made the cross pieces with cedar. Just need the front rack. I used the NSN to lookup the specs. 38.35" x 3.25" x 1.25" for the two center posts. Army used 16 GA steel with a plywood insert. I think I'll skip the wood and use 3/8" steel. Two corner posts I will make by modifying some of the spare side stakes.
Probably because it didn't have any oil in it yet. It sat for a long time, and I shut it down before it built oil pressure. I should've cranked it with the shutoff pulled until it built oil pressure but didn't think about it. Things get overlooked when you're filming sometimes. I wanted to show how easily I knew it would start, but didn't think about the oil prime.
Great accomplishment! I can see you're at ease. Must be the final project video?! Nothing a little fire won't cure😂😂😂 needed that laugh this morning 😂

Nice ad placement on the shirt. Appreciate ya man, your videos help me understand these trucks way better than a manual.
Same
You know ,it’s such a great feeling when it start. I love M35’s . Good job
Keep those multi-fuels alive! I love hearing them run. I smile every time I fire mine off.
New catch phrase “There’s no engine parts on the ground, so that’s a plus!” Should be on a t shirt.
I'll look into that sometime.
BTW nice shirt!!! I'm going to have to get one!
'there's no engine parts on the floor' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great seeing your new videos , looks like your doing good!!!!
its still a beast!!!!!

Yes. 17" four blade plastic fan from Amazon or Summit Racing.

If they're not locked up, they run. I've seen them in every flavor of disrepair, but they are always running.

I sold my 69 m35a2 back In November. Biggest mistake ever !!

I'd like to help you but I haven't actually ever done that.
Mine had a misfire, would you replace the injectors or give ‘em a clean
Replace. They're cheap. Or send all six off to get cleaned and set together.

I don't have any left or know about any available right now. I'm sorry.
@tacticalrepair That's okay. I'll weld them. Thanks for the great video this last two weeks. Go home and give your girl a hug.

Is it just me or when the truck shut off after the initial start up it sounded like the starter spun down like it had stuck.
Yeah I heard it too. That was the turbo spooling down.
@@tacticalrepair no kidding? I've never heard a turbo sound like that spooling down. Sounded just like a stuck starter.
