    No GP Resistor on Oh9. Do I need it?

    Sorry, I don't have any pics handy. I found some somewhere on this site, just can't remember where. After removing the rack from the back seat of my m1009, I used the left over cable as a BIG power cable. The resistor is the only thing I removed and it doesn't need to be removed, just...

    No GP Resistor on Oh9. Do I need it?

    You'll have to run a power cable from the + side of the front battery to the glow plug relay, where the resister cable had terminated.

    M1009 tailgate GM PN and prices

    I've had some luck with classicparts.com . Still have to hop around to get the best deal, but it adds to the places to look.

    New M1009 in SoCal

    Nice recovery!!! I had spots like that on the back of mine before I fixed my trans pan leak, but it also showed in the drive way. I'm with Combatmech, if you're not seeing anything parked it must be leaking under pressure. Enjoy the beast!

    6tl battery dead

    Boy, when these military batteries die...........they DIE!!! The second and last of my M1009's original 6tl's died yesterday, I guess it should have been expected as it had a Jan 06 date stenciled on it. This battery, as did the first one, died without warning. One start they were fine the...

    No voltage at cold advance leads - Glow Plug Module faulty?

    The pink/black wire traces back to a big connector at the fire wall. You'll have to remove a bolt to open it, but you might see if the power makes it through the connecor. TM-20 figure F-3. Then back into the cab figure F-4. edit: Depending on how you disconnected the seatbelt buzzer, you...

    No voltage at cold advance leads - Glow Plug Module faulty?

    You wrote that you tested the voltage at the Thermo switch but you didn't state the result. I had a problem like this, had voltage to the switch but not to the fast idle and the switch was good. In my case, all the connectors were corroded. A quick clean up and everything worked. If you're...

    Painting by the numbers

    The seat cover is indeed a GEARS cover. It sure does clean up the clutter and stop some of the rattles on the floorboard. I purchased "Blaze" ( my girl's idea) from a group in OKC this time last year. From the what I've been able to find out it's last unit was at Ft. Riley, but no documents...

    Painting by the numbers

    Wallew, Yep, that's my '86 M1009. Registered it a month or so ago as a FMV by the bumper numbers. The threads I read on registering as a FMV in Texas said that the county would take the last 7 numbers. Jefferson county only wanted the lasts 6 and a picture of them, in my case "2MT604". The...

    Did you thread the bottom or weld an insert?? I'd have probably "rednecked" it with JB weld and messed it up! Looks OUTSTANDING!!!!

    Wait Light on Momentarily

    After I did the doghead conversion I had a problem with the Wait light illuminating for just a second or two. I figured it was a grounding problem so this last weekend I got out the pencil erasers and electrical contact cleaner and cleaned the connections at the firewall, the connector for the...
