just once and just lightly, a fog more like. then seal it up and have done with her. another solution is to set the cap, then run silicone tape around the outside. my rig has never had a seal, -wish it did. wish i had a fistful of dollars too but whatever.

this troubles me.the darn things should not b that tight. i assume u know what your doing, from the sound of it, but check for a weld anyway that might have been done to keep the thing tight. my trick, though its not a good one, is to heat and quench the bolt if its tight the tight is often...

the bolts that hold the banjo should b 16mm fine thread. the hose fittings are-6 a/n. (do not get jic or sae-wont fit). but i could b wrong. im working on 3.0's if u get in a pinch and have to block off the lines; use drain plug bolts in same mm.

For sure when I return to shop this rig is getting a complete front suspension swap into 2 gen. With emu bars and my konis. She deserves it and needs it. During one of her fainting spells outside of reno in a snow storm, I had a chat with her. I put it in these terms: Honey if you get me down...

395 was a mess all the way to bishop ca. Ice snow . Nearly solid white from Lakeview to north of reno. Which brings up a point seldom discussed here. The montee is a king off road But it's important to mention how amazingly well balance and predictable the rig has been designed to be on...

The montee has delivered me to cali, has delivered me to all different kind of places, including a Buddhist monestery, and when the weather clears a bit we will turn once again northward to oregon . With a reluctance to leave. This moment I'm near coyote canyon in the AB . A thrill to see all...

Thx for this. It's worth looking onto.luck would have to play a part cause most of these rigs are likely junked by now in Europe with their high tax and pollution standards. I'm guessing here but I might have success in s.e. asia. Phillipines etc.

I'm ur huckleberry. I'm just out of longview.on the oregon side. Right now I'm in s. California. Will be back when the rain stops up there. I'd kinda like to have the montee to sorta kinda.

braided steel lines are off the shelf item in some hydraulic line shops. fittings for either end the same story. oil filter service here in portland had me a set out the door in 15 minutes. but if someone is going to do up custom stuff for my rig and sell them here, then i would go for that...

scraping: check your dust cover on torque converter. no shift sounds like what a trans will do when low on fluid, but what do i know im but one guess away from the nut farm on this one elec connections should be weather tight this is not or should not be a serious issue when you discover what...

yep, get off my dead .... and pull codes. im trying to vacation and its raining like oregon and sob sob sob but point taken. i buy new electronics avoiding used parts when possible but this might be the time... coil igniter crossed my mind need to recheck that but tested good b4 i left. it...

Oh right sure enough. AB. And yes I will create a signature.

Explain to me what AB is please. I'm confused about that. I'm likely going to buy new. I like this rig after all these miles. You know, I sit for 400 miles driving over ice and snow, get out of hhe rig and still fell fresh.

Will the rear quarter sliding windows from a raider fit the big montero?

I had good fortune with denso's from 5.9 cummins. 120 amp pulleys line up. Use a transpo in8315 v regulator. But my rig is gen 1 Denso cheap to rebuild mitsu ungodly high in parts.

It is a fact, that the 3.0 will dissappoint. It's a work horse. A work pony really. Being said, u can flog the little beastie and she will give all she got, but it ain't much. Go to changing tb's and u mess with torque ; where u need it, u lose it, and gain it where u can't use it. Most them...

Thx fellas. I think it's narrowed to the tps. Of which there are three new remaining in the u.s. I still haven't pulled codes, but I've largely eliminated iac. Thank you for all your help on this. The lack of montee riders in this area,means I'll have to go to coyote canyon solo. I have seen no...

Thank you. I'm going out to pull codes right now.what I may find that I need is 3.0 electronics. We will see. I found no gen 1 rigs in the scrap yards Will likely have to buy new unless someone has a stash

Been having a rough go of it this trip to cali. Posted previously about going to california. Now im here in the sunny south. And montee feels ,well she feels bewildered and intimidated by all these fast , high dollar shiny rigs here in the sunny south. So she had a fit in the intersection and...

on gen 1 motors i have found the 5.9 cummins from a dodge fits bolt in. did gen2 use the same alt? the oem is mitsu and parts are painfully expensive. the dodge is denso and the opposite holds true, and its 120a.
