On the Master cylinder...got a picture of it? Perhaps someone can tell by the picture if it's the correct one for your truck. If nobody is closer, perhaps I can drop by and see for you, I'm relatively new to the hobby, but more than willing to help. Or, depending on your travels, you could...
Nothing yet Chuck,
Thought maybe I ran it out of fuel because I put 10 gallons into the tank and the fuel gauge didn't move. (Another mystery for another day) Tried the quick and dirty air bleed this weekend by opening the fuel filter drain and cranking it.....no dice. Going to tow it into my...
Anyone near the Flint Michigan area know of any local parades? The Lansing celebration this year is a 2-3 hr. speech/bagpipe dealy that sounds pretty cool. However, there's no call for my big rig there......anyone know of a decent option for me here in MI?
That's not nit-picking Frank, that's just fact. However, it's observed on the 10th and that's when most parades, ect. are. What a great website and suggestion!
:D
Boy isn't that the truth! Alone on the road with a 30 year old/15,000 lb. vehicle you start to imagine all sorts of thing that are about to go wrong! I envy you, looks/sounds like a great trip! I loved the Sonic picture! :driver:
I sure appreciate the offers to help! I'm going to drag it back to my dealership within a week or so and then try to figure it out. Holding a flashlight and poking randomly with a test light just isn't my cup-o-tea. I'll wait and figure it out inside a nice warm garage soon. (Did I mention that...
Thanks for the "quick and dirty!" That's just the kind of tip I need to get me pointed in the right direction. If it doesn't rain tonight, I'll check it out. Thanks!
My M1009 died a few days ago on me. Ran fine in the three weeks that I owned it, then just didn't start one morning. (And it's not even cold here yet) Glow plugs at least appear to be operating normally, I realize from carousing through posts that the glow plugs are USUALLY the culprit. From the...
I'll have a crank for the rear window with the handle broken off here in a few days. I just bought a new one from either Saturn or Memphis. (don't remember which one)
I'm not any help on the other parts.......
It's funny how fast I forget the nasty part of off-roading up there and only remember the good. That silt does get absolutely EVERYWHERE! Not sure I'd take the deuce out into it come to think of it. Enjoy your new toy! :lol:
I just bought one two weeks ago and haven't gotten out of it since! It does wind up on the freeway without any sort of overdrive, but the second or third time I was used to the noise of it being wound up! I love driving the old girl around so much, I haven't driven anything else and I own...
My brother owns a farm, I skated the issue and went with farm plates! 8) A bit on the shady side, but I thought it was the best alternative. I was scared of the restrictions of the historical plate. Now if I'm stacked 13 ft. high with bales of hay, or hauling 5 tons of rock down the road I'm...
I know they were tan, I know first hand also. Just was wondering what a desert camo would look like on a M1009. :roll:
I'll search for the M880 truck in the desert camo....see what that looks like. Thanks!
