    Priming the oil system after hibernation

    My opinion- this is a solution in search of a problem. There's plenty of residual oil to provide adequate lube for a gentle start. It's easy to be all OCD about these things. I've talked myself out of worrying about it, with decades of effort. Start it, idle it, drive it.

    Pressure protection valve is supposed to open around 70psi, at which point a bunch of stuff downstream gets fed : horn, wipers, tcase, etc. Hypothesis: something downstream is leaking fast enough to prevent air building past that point. Suggestion: pressurize the truck with shop air and...

    Tire suggestions for daily driver - M923A2

    You can make them hit the bed. You'll want to adjust the bump stops or add a spacer, or drive conservatively.

    Did I toast my 6.2 engine somehow, and how do you jump a 24v HMMWV?

    I think you have effectively ruled out battery problems at this point. Jumping it as you did should have started it even with bad batteries.

    Did I toast my 6.2 engine somehow, and how do you jump a 24v HMMWV?

    You can jump a 24v vehicle from two 12v vehicles. Connect each 12v vehicle to the positive and negative of one of the HMMWV batteries using heavy duty jumper cables. Ensure that the 12v vehicles are not electrically connected to each other in any way.
