Replaced Solex Carb

Water Pump Problem

Water Pump
The water pump was squealing like a stuck pig! It needed to be rebuilt. We sent it in to “Army Jeep Parts. Inc.” for a complete rebuild. It’s the best way to be sure the pump will fit properly.

* Note: This turned out to be a misdiagnosis.

Exhaust Leak

Exhaust Leak
We discovered an exhaust leak where the exhaust pipe joins the manifold. You can see the carbon residue on the gasket.
