I know this may make me sound completely stupid, but I've been trying to take the rear seat out of my m1009 to clean ist out really good and prep for a rino liner. I've followed the TM and unbolted the seat belts and the poston on the rt. I've pull lke crazy on the handle in the rear with no...

Got a lot done today. After checking all voltage on the batteries and cables, realized that problem is most likely the starter. Brought the starter to Autozone(all that was avail on a Sat) it failed all test miserably. I bought the reman avail at Autozone but kept the orginal to be reman...

What are some symtoms of starter failure? When I attempt to start all that happens is dash light come on, however then it just clicks then nothing. I checked w/ a mech and he said to tap on the starter and see if it would turn over. Too dark out now to try, no cool garages like you all...

Alright! I changed the cable between the two batteries and the terminal connectors. Still no start and that center cable is getting very hot. This time whiel we were trying a crank I noticed some white smoke coming from panels on the firewall. I pulled the covers off and noticed that there...

Thanks guys, I'll change the cable and connections this afternoon. If I can get her running I'll check the voltage. Thanks Again!!!

Does anyone have an idea why my cable connecting the two batteries would be getting so hot that I an burn my hand. I was haveing some starting problems yesterday, slow turn over and no crank. I opened hood to check thing out and could feel the heat coming from that connecting cable. I took...

RE: Congrats on the 09, Its a world of victories and defeats. Just when have every thing covered and in order. There tends to be a no start or fuel leak problem etc.... I get frutrated as heck sometimes, guess its just part of the fun. Look like LMC does have everything you need...

What red-blooded American boy buys a new set of tires and doesn't test them out at least once!! I know these tires are listed as all-terrians, but I was pretty surprised at their performance in the south louisiana mud. Don't get me wrong we were not in the swamps or boggs or anything like...

Yea I left the 3.08's, and she's definitely pretty slow off the start and sluggish on a incline. Pretty cool at highway speeds though. Once my money tree starts to produce, there is definitely pans for 4.11's in the future. Probably distant future aua

I pulled out some Wellman 6A843G070, but I could not find any around here at the local part stores. I did find some on the internet, but would have took a while to be delvered. I was al little anxious to get her started.

Finally put some funds together and convinced the wife (what a cool b-day present). I put some 33/12.50 Interco Trexus sts tires on some black pro comp 15/8's. I decided no lift for now as the funds were not really working out for now. When I put the wheels and tire on: I like the ride...

Just wanted to say thanks for all y'all help! I changed my glow plugs today, and she started right up first crank. I could only get 7 of the 8 out, and a few of those were pretty swollen. All they had had at the local parts store were bosh plugs, but they seem to work so far. As the day...

Well, I did have a desil leak. My brother, who works as a desil mechanic for catapillar, helped w/ some trouble shooting. We found the desil leak from the weep hole on the lift pump. With a bad lift pump we thought that the engine wasn't getting enought fuel to fire on first crank. Today...

Alright: had a chance to change the relay today, found a bosh-warner unit at O'rielly Auto Parts for $22. Now the wait light comes on and the clicking noise is not as pronounced, however it still clicks seven times w/ 3-4 sec between clicks, and the truck doesn't start. Should I look at...

Cool, Thanks guys, following whats going on, I think I gonna try the relay first. I'll take a trip to napa tommorrow.

The clicking from the relay is fairly rapid, maybe 4-5 sec between clicks.

Sorry guys, I've been out of town for a few days. Here's where I stand:\ * -I cannot view the TM's as my computer freezes up every time I try to open them from this pate * -I checked all the fuses on the fuse block under the dash, all appear in working order w/ none burnt or cracked * -I had...

73m819: Duson is about 20min from my house. Not much going on in Duson! * acetomatoco: I really not notice anything from my voltmeter. My wait light does not come on at all. Where do I look for the gp relay? I have been reading multiple post on starting issues, and have noticed that I do...

Alright! Two weeks ago, I changed the shut-off solenoid on my injection pump. She started up first time, every time for about two weeks. Now she is struggleing. She turns over plenty but will not start. I have noticed that when I turn the ignition for the glow plugs to warm I no longer...

I got the new solenoid installed plus two Catipillar 1000CCA batteries, those B's are huge. BigGirl starts first time every time!!!
