Thanks. I will see if I can get the alternator tested.

I have a 6oamp military generator that came out of another M923. I just want to know if I can convert to it.

I have a M923 with a bad generator and after some research have determined that is must be a 100 amp with 3 big post and 3 small pins in a screw on connection. Can I convert to the more popular 60 amp and if so how.

Thanks Retiredwarhorses. I went out and wiggled the 24 volt power on the front of the pump and it started right up. Thanks again. This web site is awesome.

I just looked at my Humvee and I'm not sure where the ground needs to be placed. I was told under the wiper box. Is that the washer fluid on the drivers side. I hooked up a jumper cable from the grd on the generator to the engine and still no start. Shouldn't there sunburned diesel come out...

Thanks leo4x4. That will be my project for today and I will let you know how it goes.

I told him to drive 53 because of the warning on the speedometer. I bought a maintenance truck with the generator/welder etc. a few years back in Vegas at the air base. I flew down to drive it home. I called a military equipment supplier in Ogden and they told me that I could drive it at 70...

What grounds. It is not getting fuel. I checked the tank and it does have a half of tank. Is there a ground for the fuel system? Thanks

The glow lug light turns on and the goes off in a few seconds. The volt gauge also indicates that the glow plugs are cycling because it goes up and down. I will check the fuel in the morning. thanks for the replies.

A farmer friend of mine drove my M1030 over night that I had for sale and I told him not to go over 53 mph. I think that he drove it to fast because he said that it no problem going 60. I also noticed that he had used a half of a tank of fuel. It was in his heated garage when I picked it up...

Thanks for all the info. -6 here today. Glad I installed a block heater. I will try to find leaks and remove the air in my friends shop. Did air in the system damage the pump?

I have a 87 Humvee and the power steering pump is making a lot of noise like it is full of ball bearings or something and it is foaming really bad. The radiator was recently pulled out for repair and replaced so I checked the lines that go to the cooler and everything seems to be correct...

I buy 5 tons for farming and ranching here in North Dakota and now and then I get a truck that the oil gage works right after the truck is started but after a few minutes or when I look at it again it is down to zero. I always shut the truck down and check for leaks and check the oil. The last...

Thanks for the great information. It does have ABS. It is still at the tractor dealerships dock where I unloaded it. I will blow it down on Saturday when it is suppose to be 35 degrees. Thanks again.

I live in Bowman North Dakota and just had two M939's delivered from the south on a step deck. It was hard to get them off of the trailer because the brakes would not release, I believe the air lines were frozen due to moisture in the lines and the 3 degree temps here. I looked at the TM and...
