    SS diesel glow plugs

    RE: 12 vs 24? The connection from the Pos Term ( TM-9-2320-289-20) F-1 to the resistor bank is 24v , resistor converts 24v to 12v, out resistor bank to glow plug controller is 12v.. 12v to the solenoid closes circuit 12v to the glow plugs.. OK sounds good BUT, the resistor still allow +12v at...

    Installing a Amp for speakers in CUCV!

    The alt are rated at 100Amps , ("Marketing label", they will produce 100Amps for a short time , and high amperage usage of 60+amps will burn the alts out).. If your looking a 500w amp at 12v = 500/12 = 41.6 amps .. I currently have x2 m1009's , x1 is a 1 off genset in the build and the other...

    12 volt conv.

    I rewired the whole electrical system on my m1009 converted to a WVO genset in progress. You can rewire to x2 isolated 12v systems , and ditch the 24v starter & convert to 12v starter. This also allows you to remove the 24v to 12v step down resistors for the glow plugs . Both alts can also be...

    Need some help with a 84M1009 Will not start

    ok 84cucv, If your feeling the glow plugs are heating try checking the fuel shutoff switch voltage.. diesel smell may be from fuel left in the injector lines, but fuel shutoff switch is still closed. Follow the pink (10awg I think) wire to the I/P . Turn key on , check with a voltmeter DC...

    My Bio Experiment

    rizzo, you have to heat the svo or wvo to 165F so it will flow .. wvo/svo needs to be filtered at least 600 micron's .. see fattywagon.com or search the web lots of info . My 6.2l wvo generator project is being built as follows: heated injector lines, fluid heated fuel lines, fluid & 12v...
