I sure won't argue with those points. That is poor management... I took damage to my stuff on Thursday night. I basically made the same statement today: "Had I been able to properly tie down my tent, it would not have blown over and gotten torn up". That is the one aspect I left out of my...

Very true. But, there was plenty of money being spent, from what I saw. Personally, I think the decline in attendance can be attributed to several things over the years: - Weather. Cold and rainy, hot, hot and rainy... Luck of the draw. Cannot control it, so I don't worry about it. -...

Huh? What show were you at??? There could have been more vendors, for sure, but every vendor I talked to was very happy about the turn-out, especially on Friday. There were a lot of people there on Friday.

Lance, we can just square up at the show. Thanks!

I'll be there all three days. Not sure what I will have time to load as I am travelling for work M-W next week. I've got a few NOS M101A3 landing legs left. If someone wants one at the show, let me know and I'll bring it. Comes with a repro handle - $120. Some miscellaneous NHC-250 parts...

OK, that makes sense. It was rainy and getting late and I wasn't even thinking about where the voltage for the lights would come from (not that they were hooked up, but it makes perfect sense). So, after messing around with it, it appears to leak fluid when the boom hits the stop after getting...

Can any of you guys tell me what this marvelous little mystery part is/does? The dotted line part inside the red circle. I have not dug through every page of every manual yet, but I thought it was interesting that this is the only part on this drawing in the -34P without a number. Even the...

Be careful of this situation... One alternator running @ 24V to charge both may sound OK, but with all of the regular lighting and wiring systems pulling 12V from one battery, it will lead to ruined batteries in short order, especially as a daily driver.

The problem for folks that have legitimate "on-road" paperwork for HMMWVs is that so many people have now knowingly gone to the effort to fraudulently eliminate the ORUO on their titles, the DMVs cannot determine which ones did or did not have the restriction in the first place. So, they are...

Uhh, because he can???? Besides, there is no guarantee the power will come back on when they say, especially during a severe wind storm... I don't know his situation, but I'm on a well, so I will kick mine up for even a half-hour outage, just so I can flush my toilets and be comfortable...

Are you sure this wasn't the other way around? Not that I don't believe it could not happen, but that's quite a bit of work to swap t-case, driveshaft, pull the bed, etc... to make a M1031 out of a an M1028. Check your NSN against what GM72K10 posted...

The resistor for the starting glow plug.

Not if you have a helper with long skinny arms...

I'm pretty sure those criteria apply to almost EVERYONE in the hobby! :) I know I'd own at least one if that were the case!

Orange Wire Kit Instructions And, here are the "Orange Wire Kit" instructions, including correct battery hookup sequence.

DUVAC user guide Here is an old DUVAC user guide, which is pretty good reading for anyone curious about the system. It's not the exact vintage of the CUCV stuff, but the concept is the same.

Yes, that is right. But, to get the 200 amps of 24V power they wanted, and to be able to provide 12V power to run the rest of the truck, they decided to run it with the dual alternator setup and use one of them, along with the DUVAC, to balance the system. Or so they thought... :)

Some DUVAC info I just converted my old write-up to PDF. Hopefully, it helps. Can't believe it has been 14 years since I wrote this...

Try my old "fix" of swapping the front and rear (red and orange) wires of the DUVAC and see what you get. It is probably not posted here, but I do have a lot of documentation on this system from back when I had one and dealt with this issue that I will post up, if it helps.

I concur, something else is wrong. A 6.2 in the pickup versions, with stock gears and stock tires, governed at somewhere between 3600-4200 should run 72-82 maxed out. Now, if you don't have 3rd gear, that'll change to right around 50...
