CVRT SULTAN FIRST START IN 10 YEARS

Those 12V cummins engines are super extremely popular here in Canada people buy whole dodge rams for them. Thats a 94 to 97 P pump. In my opinion thats the best engine ever made. You can make a 100hp for free out of that by grinding the fuel pin and adjusting the star wheel. On marketplace place here they only last about a day for 2500$ CAD. My buddys got a 97 dodge ram with a 12V 5.9 and its got 1.5 million kilometers on it as a semi truck tire repair service on the 401. Totally loyal except for the stupid auto trans which was swapped to manual.

The CVRT Sultan with the air cooled bilge pump is incredibly rare. Big thanks to Joe for doing the crappy bits Jack would normally be doing. And for Adam's continued support...... 🏅 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@dutybod1]

I used to be attached to the Army Air Corps and they used sultans as radio command vehicles. On exercises in Germany they would break down on the way out, the vehicle mechanics would work on it all week, just for it to break down on the way back. They covered far more miles on the back of trailers than they did under their own power.

[@peterbird8161]

[@johnnunn8688]

Why did the AAC use them as command vehicles? Is it because the Sultan is a command vehicle?

Heaters and crew comfort was never a consideration in the British Army. If the Sultan had one, its because it was usually full of Ruperts' and Rodneys' A few vehicle classes were wired for heated suits but I never saw one in 16 years.

The cvrt range all had heaters in them to the left of the driver by his shoulder. No good to the driver just blew the heat in to the crew compartment at the back unless you wired the fan around the other way and it blew on to the driver 😊

Is that an M816 with the crane? Or the earlier M543 petrol powered? Sounds like a Cummins. I used to be a mechanic in the Australian army we used them as recovery vehicles, ended being replaced by Macks with a twin boom instead of a crane. Have worked on both, much preferred the Cummins powered 816, only ever saw one 543, it wasn't operational.

It changed to diesel in the late 90s

Think RAF Reg held on to the petrol version for a while longer as it was quicker, so better for quick response on airbases. J60s is how I learnt points/timing/carburettors as a VM. Lots of back firing.

Hi i have question. What is top speed of new diesel cvrt compare to older petrol cvrt . Because diesel engine max rpm is 2200 - 2500 and jaguar j60 petrol engine can rev up to 6500 rpm .my big question is how diesel cvrt can keep up speed of 50 MPH.is gear mesh in diffential crown wheel and punion changed or gearbox ratio is changed.
