Pull the belt and see if it goes away. Quick and eliminates a bunch of items.

John Mc, If you’re running the military wires I’d suggest leaving the gap stock. On multiple occasions I’ve had ignition failures due to a bad plug. I had a plug that took excessive voltage to fire. This lead to one fried lead and one fried cap. I also gave up on Pertronix after a unit died on me an...

I'd make sure that snazzy bolt that was added to the carb's elbow doesn't leak. It's on the low pressure side of the choke and will reduce it's efficiency. If all else fails you can try choking the carb with your hand over the intake elbow as a test. If that doesn't add a heap of fuel you've got som...

I think I found a cap that will do the trick. Gates 31348 Heavy-Duty Radiator Cap Once I learned that the filler neck/cap is referred to as a "size B" I did some digging and found a 7psi cap for a closed cooling system. My current cap is 4psi and designed for an open cooling system. I shou...

BugsandJeeps, I'd suggest first ensuring you have no vacuum leaks and then checking out the choke mechanism. If things are working it's capable of flooding the engine VERY easily when closed fully. The different carbs I've used on the M37 have all had their own "personality" as far as how ...

Rdinatal,
I seem to recall that it seals at the top of the air cleaner mounting sleeve. I don't think one is required at the bottom.

Rafael, There’s a bunch of posts on adjusting the governor. Charles Talbert gave really great instructions and that’s how I learned to do it. My truck is governed to 3000, but you can set it where you like. You tune 2 variables, spring preload and spring constant with 2 concentric screws. One will s...

Rafael,
Not without some pretty serious surgery and fabrication !!

If adjusted properly it works really well. I'd suggest you try that first. It takes a little patience, but it is worth it.

If it's loosing spark I'd install a new condenser and try again! They don't age well.

Gary,
Thanks for your service!!!!

Henry and I were able to participate in the Veterans Day parade last week in SF. He had a blast in the "Army Truck".

No parades this weekend, the little guy picked up a bug at school .

I use a bit less than 1.5 quarts between oil changes (3000mi). This is driving the truck at a governed 3000RPM in everyday driving (0-55mph).

If I fill it to the full line it tends to find it's level about 3/16" below that pretty quickly and then stay there for a while.

How bad are the seats? Are you sure you need to replace them? Any photos? If they are bad enough to need new ones I guess you could manage to pull the exhaust seats with the block in the truck, but you'd be stuck with the intakes without some creative machining techniques. If the seats are toast I s...
