    I read the other thread from October about doing a swap to a C7. So that may be a option. Right we are just figuring out the finance side of the grants etc.

    We'll it doesn't work that way. If we do not accept this truck we are back in the queue. It may take years before we see another one. We might end up with another 3126 truck. We have no choice.

    We haven't fully accepted the truck. We can still reject it. I'll have to give a reason. We do not have the funds for a expensive rebuild. If we get stuck with the truck it would sit for 18 months till we receive the title and we would sell it.

    I am not beating on anything. I was talking with the mechanic from A&M where these trucks come from. He suggested we had a fuel shut off solenoid issue. When I get the cab lifted again I'll take a pic and posted it up. It was over by the injector pump above the compressor. It has a two wire...

    The fuel shutoff on mine has a two wire connector. It is a 2003 A1 I believe. I was getting voltage to the fuel shutoff solenoid. It is intermittently working though. I believe it is either the connector or the solenoid. If you tap the solenoid it'll start quickly. That you for the diagram.

    I am waiting for a new hydraulic pump so I can lift the cab. I have been looking for a Fuel Shutoff solenoid. I found the part number as being 3116. Since I can't access the solenoid till I can lift the cab. I have found a ton of these solenoids. Is there a correct one? I found the two post but...

    I have another question. The air over hydraulic pump wouldn't shut off. I think the switch is broken. Ran out of time before I could trouble shoot it. Is it just the button or is there another controller somewhere?

    Can I get the correct name for the fuel cutoff solenoid? The black and red wire off of the fuel transfer pump. Need a part number and troubleshooting guide. It is intermittent. Since I have the primer button fixed and new filters/fuel lines. I can get the truck to start. I have to wiggle the...

    2008 LTMV goes into over charge dash shuts off

    The problem ended up being two new batteries that were both bad. I exchanged them and truck starts strong.

    We replaced the main fuel feed (tank) line and put in new fuel filters tonight. We couldn't get it to start on fuel. We tried the primer pump no luck. We capped the tank with rubber and pressurized it and took the fuel line coming out of the filter with the glass bowl. We were able to get fuel...

    Hello, Our VFD received this truck just a little bit ago through a DOD grant. Truck ran and drove fine. The kids at the HS painted the truck. They didn't do anything engine wise just the cab and bed. The truck wouldn't start today without either. Even then it wouldn't stay running. We...

    Yes it is a 2003. We are getting it ready for paint and ordered the skid unit for the back. I'll check and see if the box is there and if it is connected.
