    2003 M1078A1 3126B 330 horsepower flash

    This is great info, I was playing around in ET and it mentioned taking an "ECU Replacement" file. Now that makes sense based on what you are saying, I will be sure to pull that immediately just so I have it on hand in-case my ECU ever croaks.

    2003 M1078A1 3126B 330 horsepower flash

    This was the "Gotcha" I was afraid of. So there is no way to flash via the kick panel? Can you provide some information on the 70 pin cable? Is it easily available? Do you want to sell yours? Thanks for the info!

    2003 M1078A1 3126B 330 horsepower flash

    I would like to get a little more juice out of my engine while climbing grades. Is it really as simple as flashing the ECU with a 5 Ton flash file? I have seen a few threads where people have mentioned having that done in concert with a gear change, but I haven’t found it explicitly stated and I...

    Anti-freeze tire balancing ?

    When I bought my tractor at the Kubota dealer they weighted the wheels with beet juice. They said that was the standard method. It wasn't cheap so maybe that's why some people have tried antifreeze in tractors? Doesn't sound like a good idea for the previously mentioned reasons.

    ***URGENT*** MEP 803a set-up question ***SOLVED***

    In the situation where neutral is bonded to ground in your panel, and then again at the utility pole, how likely is it that a fault in the generator on the neutral would propagate?

    WA state cancelling MV titles

    This is the exact approach I was going to take with the OR dmv, however simply re-applying at a rural DMV dodged the bullet for me and I never had to pull this out. I am very interested to hear the response to this, In my opinion, this is a pretty clear indication they were built to adhere to...

    PART NUMBER/NAME FOR STARTER SOLENOID MOUNTED ON FRAME

    If you take a picture of the manual button hooked up to the solenoid and post it, I should be able to tell.

    PART NUMBER/NAME FOR STARTER SOLENOID MOUNTED ON FRAME

    Isn’t that evidence, in and of itself, that the solenoid is working? Or does yours actually bypass the solenoid?

    GP auctions cancelled after winning

    If they win and don’t pay, doesn’t that get them banned from GP? How do they know who else is bidding to give them a call?

    Winch install question/issue

    Yeah I worried about that myself, but I think it would be light if it happens at all. Not sure how much the winch was used by the soldiers but the cylinder has only the lightest of scuffing as you can see on this pic. You have to zoom in to see it there on the inboard side of the cylinder.

    Winch install question/issue

    On my factory winch truck, I noticed that the cable path is really close to the lift cylinder, I think they are depending on the cable routing roller on the frame to keep the cable from rubbing on the cylinder too much. You can see on the below pic how close the cable is to the hydraulic lift...

    https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Honeywell/NSCSSNN150PDUNV?qs=C%2F0tY%2F%2FqZe9ewEwKCB2V2A%3D%3D This seems to be the replacement recommended by Honeywell for that deprecated pressure sensor. From what I can ascertain from the DataSheets, looks to be compatible?

    Hooking LMTV to shop air for CTIS troubleshooting

    Just a follow-up on this, I tore the whole PCU apart and there was some crud in there. I cleaned everything as best as I could and re-assembled but I re-used all of the existing o-rings and seats. It made a dramatic improvement in the leak down that would occur during the “check and hold” test...

    Do you air down the tires on the M1082 for that or just the truck tires?

    Hooking LMTV to shop air for CTIS troubleshooting

    Interesting, well it is definitely venting during a check and hold, but not a hold only, so I will pursue this as the culprit for now. Thanks for the help, very much appreciated. Been spending hours on this problem and neither the Army TM nor the Dana manual pointed in this direction for the...
