    CUCV: Won't Start; NO FUEL... How to bleed out air?

    Turn on your ignition, go to the injection pump. Unhook the large pink wire leading to the pump and reconnect. You should hear a click when you do this.

    No "GEN 2" Light On Power Up. How to test?

    When I turn the key to the ON position prior to starting the vehicle (waiting for wait light to turn off) my Gen 1 and Oil light come on but the Gen 2 light does not come on. I was thinking it may be a dead light bulb BUT my voltmeter doesn't move at all. Even when the vehicle is running it...
