    No Start and No Crank

    Tried that. It’s worked on other vehicles I’ve worked on but no luck this time. How hard is the starter to rebuild? Might just get a rebuild kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No Start and No Crank

    Hi guys, I have searched and found a few threads with a similar issue, but I'm still stumped. Drove the M1009 to work this morning, as an owl decided to kamikaze into my daily driver windshield, but that's a different story. Started fine at 5 am, drove to work, finished my shift and went to...

    High idle solenoid

    Took it out for a test drive during lunch today. It started happening again, so I unplugged the green wire from the high idle switch. It performs fine now, tried several times to reproduce the stick but could not. I guess I will try to clean the old sensor when I get home.

    High idle solenoid

    The high idle on my truck has been acting up. If my truck is in P or N, it sounds like it's at max RPM. In Drive, the pedal doesn't return to idle. If I splice into the wire and keep the stock function of the switches, would the manual switch exorcise the demon in my truck until I turn it on...

    High idle solenoid

    Cold weather 09 CUCV

    was +5 degrees in KY. One GP cycle and fast idle set was all it took. I don't drive it that much, but I do love this truck. We have had a lot of snow (7 inches or so, but it's a lot for this area) and I have had 0 issues. I am putting the front battery on a trickle charge each night.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Nice collection! I let the rain wash mine. The only thing I have done in that last couple of months is drive mine as a DD. I finally understand how fun they are when you're not cursing them!! (knocks on wood)
