well, after six years of ownership of my '52 M37, I sold it on Bring a Trailer, $27 K, less than the near $40 K I eventually had in it. It was perfect, everything worked, started and ran like a top. Sold with a huge collection of spares and tools. Moving a year ago to a sort of retirement community,...

My truck, stock, other than an electric Facet 24 V fuel pump, runs great. Once I figured out the in-tank fuel filter from the previous owner was a tiny lawn mower filter, leading to a burnt out fuel pump. My truck always seemed to run "hot", with hot oil on trips and such, and last year I ...

just renewed my M37's policy with Hagerty for $160, but I don't presume it would cover me if I roll it into a river or ditch. Plus It has something like a 60 mile tow or flatbed, which I used once. I have a valuation of $7K on my truck, which wouldn't cover half of the replacement. But I am fine wit...

I just read my Haggerty renewal for my M37, and as long as it is not my primary vehicle, there are no restrictions on my use. Damage or loss due to owner negligence is of course not covered, as if I drive it into a river or ravine. I do take mine off road occasionally. NV

I wired a fused line from my 24V battery set up to a steering wheel shaft mounted flasher set up, works fine. Not connected to the big military dash multi-switch. I wasn't about to try to figure out the military switching set up. Hal

I don't know if I was just born that way, or a habit, a tendency to try to consider every possible ramification of a plan of action, learned thru 40+ years as a physician. Sort of a what/how/why of actions and consequences. So... thinking again about fuel filters for my truck, and before I just deci...

yeah, and if you read the operator's TM dash 10 for the M37, states the best way to keep it from being used by an enemy if captured is to burn it. Would likely work pretty well to "deadline' any army truck. hL

Well, when you think of it, first, the mesh in the tank filler tube, for things like corn cobs and peanut husks. Then the mesh filter in the tank, perhaps a typical 100 Micron filter. Then to my Facet, which has a small 74 micron mesh inside the actual pump, then to a small canister just after the f...

I am researching fuel filters, and the difference between a simple filter and one capable of "separating " water from fuel. But I think there is a difference in water issues between ethanol blends, and non-ethanol gas. I suspect water in an alcohol blend is "dissolved" or somethi...

I haver searched for some time for a big canister fuel filter, most of the fuel filters are small and of limited capacity, for modern, supposedly clean fuel systems. But I just can't find a place back inside the frame rails to put one, just no room. If my fresh filters, and running my tank near empt...

interesting that the latest issue has an article on the Bofors 40mm. One of the members of our small Heritage group HAS a towed 40mm, now apart in our hanger, slowly being restored. Here a picture of his Bofors. Has the barrel at his house, now a 106 barrel next to it. now. hal https://i.postimg.cc/...

Looks like Wix chanter their part number and this looks to be the same but now under a different Wix part number, see:

just tried to buy more of the above Wix plastic case filters, but the Wix 33032 is now a Wix metal canister. So looking around, found lots of inexpensive similar for my 5/16 fuel lines, but many off Amazon are "no name", and want to use filter from Name Brand companies, even if made in Chi...

here, with the obstructed metal canister filter. Clear Wix now. hal

I has been a saga the past year. To begin this story, last spring my truck began to stumble and hesitate within a mile or so of leaving home. Eventualy, I had my truck flat bedded home 5 times. First thought it was a failing coil, so got pretty fast at puling my distributor out, different Coils, dam...
