    Glow plug relay issue.....again

    It looks like from your pics your push button switch is the same as mine. I would say the problem is somewhere in the gp bypass or relay s603. Here is a pic of mine.

    CUCV Electric GP card Backup Plan?

    What I found is sooner than later the gp card will start to fail. I installed a manual switch (button) that still lets the card work. It helps in the winter when I cycle the plugs and hit the button for about 20 more seconds. Today, after my M1108 sat in the cold with minus 15 F for a week it...

    CUCV glow plug solenoid dance

    "Glow plugs were operating correctly." I suspect this is not true. My M1008 did the same thing. First I thought fuel and changed the filter only to be disappointed. I changed all 8 glow plugs and the problem was solved. That's my experince with a racing engine after start. The fuel did not...

    cucv altenator

    I would look real hard at the Roscommon instructions and see if you can gain an understanding what might be wrong. My alternator is not grounded after the 12 volt conversion because I used the Duralast DL7157 from Autozone for the warranty.

    CUCV 24v to 12v How-To

    I will be one of the few to say the 12 volt Roscommon conversion is the best thing I have done to my M1008. All parts are available locally and come with a limited lifetime warranty. As far as cold, I have not seen nor had any problems. I even have a spin-on fuel filter without a heater and...

    cold start and dies after 10-15 seconds

    I would guess your fuel filter is the problem. I changed mine to the Spin-On Fuel/Water Separator Filter and use a WIX Part Number:33472 for the filter. This is also the CUMMINS 3286503 fuel filter which I find harder to get. It was not hard and worth doing IMHO. There is no fuel heater, so...

    Alternator question, more of a sanity check

    My M1008 is converted to 12 volt using the roscommon method. I did this because I use it hunting in sometimes remote places and wanted to be able to buy parts locally. Since then my truck has never let me down. You wrote,"That being said the charging system had been doing good until recently...

    Hand throttle install, Pics!

    Could that be used as a cruise control? I have ideas in my head.

    4wd. In 4 hi shifter slowly moving back toward 2 hi

    All of them. I was in a hurry because I got called away. If the fluid levels are low it will cause problems like he described. I like Lucas Oil products.
