Hi Guys! Here is a video of me changing the engine oil and oil filters in my Deuce and a half. This is for the M35A2 Deuce with the LDT-465-1D multi-fuel engine. I put out a new video every week and a new Deuce video every month. Welcome to my channel BC's Deuce and Guns.
Engine Oil - 6 gallons of Rotella 15w40 (but any 15w40 Diesel engine oil will work just fine)
Engine Oil Filter - 2 of NAPA's #1133 filters (If they don't have these in stock they can cross reference with this part number)
I Just Bought a 1966 M35A2 yesterday and I Definitely Appreciate your Videos. Now all I need to do is ship it from Indiana to GA ! Thanks Tim
Did you bought it just for fun or for a specific task or use?
Another good video would be repacking the wheel bearings and replacing the front steering boots. Give someone a good idea of some maintenance that should be done, especially when they first get one and don't know what maintenance has been done on the truck previously.
Hi B.C. I can't tell you enough how much I have enjoyed your series on the Deuce. I've been watching since the beginning to see if there were any negatives in buying one. I ended up buying my Deuce two weeks ago from a private deal. All the fluids were fresh but next year, I will be ready to change the oil after watching! Please keep sharing them with us. I look forward to seeing a new one. Great job!
Just got a deuce yesterday. Thank you for all of these videos!
That's awesome! I hope to start doing more deuce videos this fall.
OK, I've spent a few minutes (days really)
in a Deuce. Why do you NOT have an M-16,
hanging on the window knobs? Even an AR-
15 will work. Barrel down, with the handle
hanging on the wind shield knob.
That was the required place for us to mount
our firearms. We could hang 4 of them.

changing oil IS THIS EASY?
*u deserve more subscribers!*
Especially for deuce owners in cold climates, I highly recommend using Rotella 5W-40 T6 synthetic vs. the regular 15W-40 conventional oil. Using the synthetic is about the only way to start the engine when it gets near freezing or below.
Troops in the field would literally build small fires under the oil pans to get the 15W oil thin enough to allow the engines to crank.
With my deuce, I find my engine runs much smoother with the T6 synthetic over the conventional oil. It also gives me some comfort with the added overall protection of using it. I cannot imagine overhauling an engine that weighs 3,000 pounds if something goes wrong.
Great series of videos you have produced. Now I need to get my baby back on the road soon.
21Laser Russians do that as well I believe especially in the temps they live through
21Laser Starting isn’t the problem if you damage the engine anyway. Once it’s up to operating temperature, the synthetic may be too thin to protect all the parts
@@askhowiknow5527 your dumbbbb
@@askhowiknow5527 do u understand that the Synthetic doesn't thin out as it gets warmer. Some may think it does but do some research on what the numbers mean and how it reacts. At 1st it would seems it would be thinner but learn more about it check and u'll see.
Building fires under the vehicle was last done in the Korean War. In modern times, military vehicles in cold climates are equipped with Swingfire Jet Fired Heater kits. Gasoline powered and get inserted into a heat exchanger mounted on the vehicle. The heat exchanger is plumbed into the cooling system and the Swingfire exhaust is directed to the oil pan shroud
Should mention that if you have a multi-fuel engine that used oil is fuel. Filter the hell out of it. Add a little diesel to thin it out and pour it in. The other great thing is if you have access to oil change shops and or fast food joints that want to get rid of used motor or food oil you'd have a free or very cheap source of fuel. Just make certain you can clean the hell out of it. French fry and filet-o-fish crumbs are hell on the injectors.
you should check out the spin on oil filter adapter kit, put one on mine and it made a huge difference in oil pressure!!!
Thanks, I’m the new owner of a 1966 deuce with a 900 gallon water tank and pump. It will be utilized as a fire truck on my ranch. Future plans include a snow plow too. I really appreciate your how to videos!
Great video, brother! I'm a brand new Deuce owner out here in Wyoming, and I'm giving my old good the right treatment. The oil canisters are leaking a bit which makes me thing the gaskets are bad, so I am gonna do an oil change to get ahead of it!
Nice! It's been a while since I've had the deuce in front of the camera but I'm planning on doing more vids soon so stay tuned.
Awesome videos. Just bought my first deuce and a half and would love to see more maintenance videos. When you gonna do more?!
Congratulations ! I agree there’s others out the but B.C. Does such a nice job, so informative and a nice joke or two with a cup of ole Joe ! - coffee) or in the Army some called it diesel oil, ha,ha,.
Wix filters are excellent, I've been using them on my vehicles for years.
Great video B.C. thanks for sharing!
The only thing I question is, in my books, vast collection of both 10ton 5ton and 2 ton truck, says when you change the oil in any of the engines you should crank the engine for 15-20sec bursts to pump oil back to the turbo as it will go around a few billion times before it has a chance to pump oil there. These manuals were given to me from an EX military mechanic that worked on them his whole tour of service.
I was thinking to pump back into the filters as well, seeing as there will be a delay for them to fill if you start it right away...
Interesting. I've never heard of this procedure. It's not in the TM 9-2320-209-20-3-1. The starting procedure listed at the end of the oil change procedure located at (Page 2-18) is simply. "3. Start engine. Refer to TM 9-2320-209-10." and that's the normal starting procedure. Then the last step is "4. Run engine at normal engine temperature and check oil filter (2) for leaks at top and bottom. END OF TASK". Which TM are you referring to? Does this TM include the LDT-465-1D engine? The TM 9-2320-209-10-1 (Page 4-37) also advises to never hold the starter button for more than 10 seconds and if held for 10 seconds to wait for 2 minutes before attempting to start again.
@deuceandguns just start it up watch the oil pressure gage. One the pressure comes up the oil will get to the filters and the turbo. Let it idle for 5 minutes while checking for leaks.
MORE please more, your video's are great...
Good News! I was able to make it down to the farm today! (Feb 1st 2014) Got some good video and was able to make use of my new Contour action camera. Expect a new Deuce video within the next two weeks! Sorry about the two week editing delay but I've learned not to promise anything the next week due to work obligations. Thanks for watching!
Thank's I can't wait to see more deuce video's yours are the greatest on the web.
@@daviddorries3450 I agree
You should pre lub the gasket on an oil filter Helps it seal better
lol that would be funny going into autozone or napa picking up 60 gallons of motor oil a oil funnle and two oil filters and put it all on the counter then the casheir asks why you need so much and say im changing oil for the first time in my family truck
I gave up on Autozone 20 years ago but my local Napa guys hide or take a fake phone call when I walk in to make the new guy deal with me. They've learned if I walk in someone is going in the back for some serious digging.
DEUCE AND GUNS I had a 61 Scout 80 and got all my parts from Napa. The old guy there would always tell me a number somewhere to find so he could give me the right part and then that would do it. Irrational Cornbinder was what they called those things. Love your videos. They are factual & non-biased.
Every video I swear!
DEUCE AND GUNS : I was just plundering through your older videos, in regards to Napa, believe it or not, I can go to Napa and purchase oil and air filters for the G.P. 60 series E.M.D. locomotives I operate at work. I personally do much of the engine and generator,traction motor, brake maintenance on my locomotives, when the Local Napa sees me rolling in with a notebook in my hand, they're eyes light up with $$$$ signs...lol. there are 11 spin on filters alone for water,oil and fuel as for media style filters if I remember there are another 12 for fuel, oil and electrical cabinet air filters, all of the media filters are the same size and are interchangeable.
So how many miles can you drive before another change ? Like the typical 4k or 5k with a conventional oil? Also I imagine that old oil you drained you could filter out via your methods and toss it in the fuel tank? Hehe
You need to make some more videos of the deuce!!! It's awesome
I drove a 2003 Sterling truck for KDOT for 15 years. On an oil change it had 1 filter but it help 36 quarts of oil. I definitely understand what you go threw.
Hey man , actually hooked up my heat today , bought all of the stuff at homedepot and it works great ! Let me know if you want some pics , it was hard for me to find info on all of it so I kind of had to guess
That's awesome. My setup looks complete but I've still got no air going to the defrost. It may be the air deflector or something blocking the air flow to the windshield frame. I've got to replace all the rubber on the front windshield anyway so I'll tackle it then.
Wow, less daunting than I was afraid of! Thanks!
Thanks for your fantastic videos! I learn a lot! Are you going to do any for replacing the axle boots? Seems like a common problem.
When I need to replace one (they're living on borrowed time now) I'll have the camera rolling for sure. Thanks for watching.
Hry Mr Duece thanks for sharing your great videos on your 2 1/1 ton truck my Dad been watching your video he drove one of these while he was in the Army from 1958 to 1964 want these also made by Kaiser motors, Chrysler , I also knew Studebaker made them did Ford also made these like they made the jeeps bck then? Please advise thanks
that's not bad our mack not sure what engine, but it takes 11 gals of oil my guess is that the engine is about the same size. it is a grain truck that pulls a pup with a 5 speed transmission. tip try to pur your jugs sideways then they don't glug so bad.
Baron Van Oosting you always pour from the spout at the top!
Oil looks good. Basically owning and driving a deuce is like owning an old car.
You did a video on the deuce! Ahhhhh! I love that sound. Lol. I'm shocked that engine uses that much oil. Wow. Filters for it are really cheap. I was thinking something around $75 a piece. Lol. Heck lawn mower oil filters are around ten bucks. Lol. Great video! I can't wail till the next one. I will stay tuned!
Excellent video! Can you make a video on fuel filter (all 3) changes? Is there a special procedure to prime the fuel lines after a filter change?
Thanks for the interest in my series. I'll be doing a fuel filter change shortly but until then as long as the in-tank fuel pump (lift pump) is working (many are not) all that has to be done is bleed the system of air with the master switch on. If the lift pump is not working I've heard some being able to fill all the canisters with fuel and working after eons of cracking but I have never witnessed it.
@@deuceandguns I really & truly enjoy your Deuce videos and miss you not doing more but I guess winter kicked in now so I’ll just be waiting for your next ones. Your so informative, I like the screen shots of P.M. Magazine and pictures of what can happen on a static lock engine, the extra pics help. I love the history you put into the research, it’s great ! Love the Deuce & Huns coffee cupI got. I’m getting the T-shirt next payday.
Thanks again B.C. More Deuce vids when you can please.
@@deuceandguns more deuce videos please
Great vid. Just a quick tip. Those buckets don't only come in 5-gallon size. They also come in 6 and 7 gallon sizes. Get yourself a 7 gallon bucket and you won't have to switch out. I'm assuming it'll still fit under the truck.
I absolutely love these videos of the deuce keep em comin as much as you can lol sometime in the future I plan on buying one just don't have the funds or space until I buy me a house can't wait to see the next video!
Great video. Thank you for sharing. Even though I have a 5 ton, this video is helpful to a mechanic noob like myself. Enjoy the rig!
Makes my 5.9 cummins look like child's play
I swear I could smell the oil.... Another fun thing of Deuce ownership.. :)
NAPA Gold filters is all I use anymore. Good quality.
good video, keep them comin. im actually lookin to buy a deuce when i get back to the states.
Please do a video on changing the oil in all the axels. Thanks
It's not a bad idea to add a quart or ATF to keep things cleaned up. I was suprised at how much sludge can out on my second change after doing that haha
If you check with the local oil Company you can get 35 or 55 gallon drum of oil for less per gallon price! You will need to get a drum pump or a way to lay it on its side high enough to get your can or reuse the plastic jugs from when you got the oil in the gallon plastic jugs. They make what looks almost like a 2 wheel hand cart that is made for drums and can be layed back after you put the valve in the drum and it is made to be able put your jugs under the drum valve to fill your jugs! There are many different ways to get the oil from the drum to put in the engine. It will cost to get the set up but once you have things set up it should save money after that. You can get hand operated drum pumps or electric pumps. Can get meters on the pump and run a hose from that into the engine or use the plastic jugs to put it in. I just thought you can save money on the oil by getting it in the drums.
Merry Christmas brother, to you and your family :)
Thank you. A Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.
Hey man love your videos ! Just wondering if you could make a video on the cab heater and all of the piping into the cab ? Just bought a 68 m35a2 and none of the piping for the heat is hooked up and would love to see what it looks like ! Thanks !
Good idea. My floor heating is good but my defrost is unhooked somewhere. When I tackle that and it'll be getting cold soon I'll put together a video. Thanks for the idea and thanks for watching.
nice intro
Hey I think you should do a video on how to take the top off the cab of the deuce
I think Red_Jacket is jealous of BC's Deuce.... I know I am! I want one as a spare vehicle. My neighbors are cool with the idea!
These filter gaskets will seal better if you slightly lubricate them with the fresh oil.
Changing fuel in the deuce and half
The oil filters on the Chrysler 3.6L Pentastar engines use a canister free design which I hope is really easy from what I read
Hey I love the m45a1 duece and a half where can I buy one
how many miles do you go in between changes
Should be about time to do it again.
@@mcclx4183 hahahahaha
please explain the type of fuel that can be used on a multifuel truck? could you use gasoline in a pinch?
Have a Question I have a 69 Kaiser m35a2 that is slobbering oil by the blow by that comes out by the turbo. anything to add to the oil to free up the piston rings?
B.C. please do a fuel filter change video
So do you burn the old oil mixed with other fuel?
There should be a master key either under the passenger seat or under the dash somewhere that makes it so you do not have to disconnect the bateries
Keep making deuce vids.
can a deuce-and-a-half be converted to work with wood gas
I'm curious how difficult it is to find parts for these trucks? Anyone have any idea?
alright BC , let's drop the coolant and replace the thermostat , lol
Probably been mentioned, but you need some fumoto engine oil drain valves...SOOO worth it...
For a road car I can see the benefit but I run over so many things in the Deuce I'd be afraid a sapling would snag it and open it even with a safety wire. My fear is probably unfounded but I'll stick with a drain plug for the Deuce. I may put one on my commuter car though so thanks for the suggestion.
Sure thing. I find your videos very helpful and am currently shopping for both a M35A2 and a M925A2.
When's the next video I love watching them
Thanks for watching! I'm hoping to shoot a new one in a few weeks. I've been swamped at work so I've not had a chance to get down to the farm since Oct.
how often do you have to/need to change the oil and about how much does it run you doing it yourself? my wife and I love your videos. we have them all saved
Your amazing dude
great series have always wanted to know more about these trucks but just can't find all the information. maybe in a future video you could go over the drive train under the truck and how that all works, i know these trucks have different suspension than most it would be interesting to see how it works.
Good idea. The rear suspension is different from anything else I've ever driven. This could be a series all to itself as just following the drive shaft and explaining what it's doing would take 10 min!
I was always told to use a pressure washer to remove any dirt and scum from the hidden side of oil filter bells. What do you think ??
Could the oil drain plugs be replaced with ball valves?
Yes, they should be rated for high temperatures if possible.
I'd like to change the oil/fluid on my M35A2 transfercase and also in the differentials. What are the oils/fluids to use on those applications? Thank you in advance!
The transfer case is the same as the transmission so 30, 40, or 50 straight weight nondetergent motor oil. Due to the lack of shifting I'd recommend 40 or 50 for the ultimate protection unless you only drive in cold climates. The diffs use GL-5 80w-90. Apologies for the late reply I was on vacation and didn't have the info with me.
DEUCE AND GUNS Awesome well thank you for replying though! Although I have read that for the differential to use like 85w140? Any thoughts? Also, I'm in Puerto Rico so the weather here ( except for hurricane season ) is an average of 85°Fahrenheit. So for the transfercase go with like 40w non-detergent and if I don't find it, just go with the 30w?
Ps: I went with the 30w non-detergent as you recommended on the video of changing the transmission fluid. And it seems like once the transmission gets warm after a good hour of drive it get a bit stubborn to shift, non like before I changed the fluid from the old fluid that it had, for who knows how long (time wise) was the fluid that I took out in that transmission. Any thoughts about that? I even read to actually use 80w90 on the transmission. How accurate is that? And THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ALL THE VIDEOS AND HELP!
From what I understand 30 is supposed to be ok but I'd recommend to order 40 or 50w for the warmer climates. The 80w90 in the transmissions is fine as well as long as you get one that is yellow metal safe so it doesn't damage the syncros.
DEUCE AND GUNS Ok, I already have the 30w on the transmission. Should I change it to a 40w or 50w non-detergent on the transmission and also on the transfercase? And, use GL-5 80w90 on the differentials? What's GL-5?
Are you going to use your old oil as fuel
Would fully syntetic oil work?
Anything made for diesel engines will work.
Just found these videos. Thanks for being very informative. Do they stall easy? I live in Wv and ive been looking at buying one. I drive stick regularly with different vehicles but every once and awhile i happen to be "that guy". i was hoping you could do a video about up hill starts and stops...or should i do my best to avoid them? thanks
Sockets work wonders
Agreed, but out on the farm you go to battle with the army you have not the army you want.
BC,
Have you ever considered using spin-on filters in place of the canisters?
@sciencescifigaming I remember inone of your previous deuce videos you mentioned it could burn any type of fuel so do you just throw the engine oil in the tanks and burn that too. That would be some nice savings considering regualar diesel is about $4 a gallon. That's like getting a $30 off coupon for an oil change
did you throw the dirty oil in fuel tank since your deuce is multi fuel?
since the deuce can burn waste engine oil, could you put the oil you just drained straight into the fuel tank after straining it??
Changing oil regularly is detrimental with any turbocharged vehicle. It's critical the barrings in the turbocharger have clean oil
Was there an oil pressure increase after using the wix filters? Im wondering because there isnt as many holes as the previous filter.
A question for you; do you think one of these would make a good base unit for a farm grain hauler? Our old '88 Chevy 1 ton is rated for 7,500 LBS of cargo, and has given us yeoman's service since Dad bought it. The only thing (s) that are starting to weigh against it is the fact that it's a gas engine (350 small block,Turbo 400 trans) and the fact that it's spent most of it's life flirting with it's legal GVW rating of 15,000 LBS. I'm not giving up on it, but looking for it's successor.
I'd out the oil in the gas tank
Thanks alot man I got the lift pump working and all the air out of the lines but my injector pump is not pumping fuel to the injectors any idea on what to do thanks
Aren't you suppose to wet the o ring with oil before you put the filters on?
Do you have any videos of changing the fuel filter? Also what type of oil did you use?
Thanks for the quick reply. Im trying to decide permission or forgiveness to buy one (radio van version). If you are still taking suggestions for content... Common problems and diy time and cost estimates. Also sounds like the braking system makes a pull or roll start dangerous.
Do you have your heater valves open? That can cause the heater to not work properly if they are closed.
So you can use the oil from the motor into the fuel tank & just cut it with diesel or gas ?
AWESOME!
Does the engine actually call for 6 or 5.5? Overfilling an engine is not really a good idea for your garage floor. The engine will just push out the extra.
Oh ok, saw a pinion flange and was curious. how's she ride?
Curious. How often must you change the oil in the deuce? Thanks.
There's no hard or fast rule. The military sends samples to Blackstone labs and only changes when the sample comes back dirty. Most of us usually change every 1,000 miles or every year whichever comes first.
Could you put the oil you just changed back into the tank instead of having to take it to auto zone or someplace like that to recycle it?
How often are we changing the oil? is it the normal time frame that you abide by for your car or is it special?
The oil change in our late model 2.5 ton equilevent internationals duramax cummings and hino lasts 15,000mi on road use defering the parts costs equal to a car at 3000mi. How long is the imterval on a deuce?
Does it matter what weight oil? Any difference between a synthetic or regular? How long between changes?
dumb question here im new to the hobby, will this work the same for a M35A3? thank you in advance
Where do you despose of that oil??? Into the tank it goes!
You mentioned that it is a mulit-fuel engine....can you go over all the different fuels it can run on? Can you also tell the different advantages/disadvantages of each fuel. Any special procedure for the different fuels?
That's a good video idea. I plan on doing something like that this year but I'm not sure when. Thanks for watching.
What is the mile intervals with regular and synthetic oil I know synthetic oil in cars can go 10000, since it takes so much oil in there is oil in the fuel more than that
I want one of those trucks
Uses crescent wrench and backwards to top it off lol. Smh
What about fuel filters? I Always change fuel filters at oil change
I was thinking of buying an M35A2 and was thinking about the disposal of the used oil. Then I remembered that it's a multifuel engine so I was wondering, could the used oil just be dumped into the fuel tank and burned off?
It needs to be filtered first. Basically, follow what backyard bio diesel makers do as far as filtering goes then dump it in. I recommend to not go over 50% waste motor oil to diesel to be kind to your fuel pumps. They have to move a lot of fuel and build up a ton of pressure so having fuel the consistency of honey doesn't help. I'll eventually make a video about this but this should get you in going in the right direction. Thanks for watching!
How many miles are on the engine?
Hello how many miles until you do an oil change
