    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Not looking to rain on the parade of new work... BUT, been there, done that. Coolant Surge Tank - Reservoir - Overflow & 2000 HMMWV M1123 Project Real coolant tanks have soldered joints at the neck and are made of brass... not shinny fake steel. Got a magnet ? CAMO

    Anyone have a pic of the inside top of a 6.2 injection pump?

    MY guess. Check the solenoids... Fuel and cold advance. They have plastic housing parts that could have come loose. Electrical feed thur insulators are plastic or hard fiber too.. All the other parts are metal. And we thought HumV's were heavy metal. CAMO

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    RETURN of the RETURN LINES Return lines headaches. Here's the POOP from my experience on the fancy, green or black, no clips, slip on, with a woven outer jacket, general web sites kits or bulk lengths. At first this magic hose seemed to work... but I had my doubts, old school guy here, time...

    Yes... You have it figured out. That bolt passes thru the tunnel to the inboard side, above the frame. Same with the positive only it has an inslator bushing. Many times radio accessories have wires / lugs connected there. In the de-mill process they may just cut them or (more trouble)...

    HMMWV Thermostatic Coolant Fan Switch Variants?

    REM Products is a high quality thermo switch preferred in this application, OEM to say. Blue aluminium anodized label is their product. Not cheap either. Now it could be a knock off... like many other parts HumV ? They were in Tucson, AZ Real deal or not ??? CAMO
