    Delco 30si is the most reliable alternator there is. It has large bearings, no brush or commutator and you can get one over 200A and a self-excited controller that doesn't need the plug at all

    I have 6 of the metal nato cans. Bought them for like $40 each online. One i ruined the lining by using it for washer fluid for my semi, easier to carry the one can than it was 5 1gal bottles, i now use it for waste oil between trips to the parts store to empty it. So ive got 25gal with my truck at all tes for long road trips or lawn equipment. One thing ive learned with them is to tilt it back before opening so you dont get the fuel spray from them when they swell in warm temps, would probably be the same solution for the can you only put 4.5 gal in, just tilt back when opening and attaching the spout

    I have one older version red metal fuel can like your oldest model with the metal rod attached to the lid. I also have 2 of a somewhat newer version red metal fuel cans. I configured a short piece of chain with medium fish line swivel to attach to the lid so I can spin it off without loosing the top. My buddy gave me 3 plastic fuel totes with the dang updated "safety spouts" which most folks hate. The plastic canisters can be punctured with a sharp object or have the plastic molded seam split after time....now use for non-eth fuel. They came in handy for our recent DERECHO and hurricane Beryl. My area was without power for close to a week ( including local gas stations ) so I learned that keeping my cans and vehicle fueled up is a high priority if a storm is approaching. Thanks Tim.

    The other belts will turn your water pump. Your power steering will feel a little catchy. Especially if you are on the brakes while turning. Otherwise, with the lights off and no heater fan, once started the engine will run a very long time with a fully charged battery.

    One word of caution to all prospective buyers, these trucks are far from new. Most are from the late 60's and early 70's. They've been rode hard and put up wet. Most of them haven't had any PM performed since 2005. They are condition code P which means uneconomically repairable and of no value except for material content. They will be rusty and may have inoperative components as well as cracked frames and crossmembers.

    Hi Tim thanks for all the useful info. Your videos have helped me figure out a lot on my m1008 I know this is off topic but I figured you may know so I'll ask anyways, so I've got a 1938 Chevy truck with a 216 straight 6. It's a 6 volt system with original Delco Remy generator. I'm trying to figure out how to easily convert it to 12v. Trying to figure what alternator to use, it's a 5/8 belt, it takes different brackets too. Then I need to know how to wire it up. Can you help? Don t see much info online for this conversion. Thanks!

    The np200 and np205 while having gears and shaft spacing that are similar are very different in how they transmit the power. The main reason for heating i in the 200 is that the front top gear is turning twice as fast as the shaft on roller bearings. The gear oil is carried up on the rear gears but doesn't really get to the roller bearings in the front gear as efficiently as it needs to. The faster you go the worse it gets. The 205 gears are such that the back gears are on roller bearings turning 1/2 the speed of the shaft. There are also front and back gears on the lower shaft and gear oil is carried up both sets of gears.

    There should be a brown or tan wire with a black cap on the R pin. Exact same black cap as is used for the fuel gauge sender at the tank. It is part of the STE/ICE test set up that connects to the cannon plug under your dash. Engine RPM is the purpose. If you buy a Dakota Dgital tach adaptor, plug it into the R pin and then plug a tachometer to the Dakota Digital box. You will have a working tachometer.
