Re: "Detroit Diesel"
Not while I was there that I can remember. Most of our SK's spent the whole tour with me. I got there in July '01. Left there Feb '04 for an isolated loran station.

my shipwrecked '63
I am new to the F100 slicks. Haven't completed any restorations before, but did have a '37 Chrysler Royal sedan that took too much for me to do at the time I was trying to work on it. I was 24 at the time, and had no money. Sold it. In November, I picked up the '63 F100 Custom Cab from a high school...

Mark Gordon was in 99 when I got there. Troy Hosmer in 00-01. I left in 01 for the MELLON.

'63 fried wires and flooded carb
Today- I started up the '63 for a warm up to ensure I could get it moving a little later in the day. I was moving houses today- and rented the uhaul trailer with the truck so I didn't have to drive my '63 to the new house 20 miles away. It's not safe to drive on the road. It started right up no prob...

Re: "Detroit Diesel"
BMCGC, I was an MK3 stationed on a 110' WPB (Pea Island) down in Florida back in 99-01. Pulled into Miami for a brief stop for fuel and saw one of the Bravo class 110's come in to get an engine changed out. Blew a piston straight out the block and oil sump. Over at PATFORSWA, we had one of the Alpha...

Re: "Detroit Diesel"
One of the things I train my guys to do is respond to some catastrophic casualty to our engines. When I was going through my most recent engine school, they showed us a video of our engine on a test stand. Check this one out. This is what we call a crankcase explosion, and it's a bad day for me! htt...

Re: I want a new house
My opinion... I would sell. I won't buy a house until I find the forever home... You know packing up and moving every 3 years is a drag, so doing it one more time wouldn't be such a stretch. But if you find the exact one you want and can do the improvements on it to suit you, you might be happier do...

soon to be underway in WA.
Hello all I'm April. I hail from Oregon- but am stationed in Washington. Picked up this 1963 F100 custom cab SWB in November back in my home town, and hauled it up so I can get working on it. It has a running 223 I6 and a 3 on the tree transmission. It currently suffers from affliction called "...
