    New 1008 - Glow Plug Resistors Disconnected

    Well I guess the M998 an the M923a2 i had didn't have any problems ever, they fired right off instantly. All these tales about these trucks not starting and slow starting and all that, it's perplexing. I hope when I received this M1028 It doesn't have a virus[emoji1787] Sent from my SM-G975U...

    New 1008 - Glow Plug Resistors Disconnected

    I'm a firm believer of oem stock stuff. I like bulletproof stuff. But when I hear or read tales about a runaway starter chewing up a fly wheel that's pretty scary. It seems to me like the engineers should have put a idiot gauge or light for the glow plug system. That would determine the reading...

    That's way more mud that I plan on putting through it. Still running the stock starter relay under the dash, no mod there. The truck I'll be enquiring there's some statements about starter sounds like it might not be shim properly, I've gotta figure out what that's about when I get it. Thank...

    Yeah I've used carc paint Sherwin Williams, I do use a roller to put it on though it works OK no big texture deal. I seen a dog head mod and I've seen different applications I would figure that rubber boots over the terminals like the factory solenoid in the engine compartment would be the...

    New 1008 - Glow Plug Resistors Disconnected

    So 2 years have gone by since the last comment on this subject. has everyone become more consistent on what's right and what works and doesn't create failures? I see different people discussing modifications on the stock OEM set up. The OEM set up is 25 to 30 years old. I see plenty of...

    OK great so the name plate says 15 amps 120/208... so that would be 15 amps per leg correct? I was at around 50% load with that 6 amp per leg try. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    1st picture is the upper arm 2nd picture is the lower arm. I believe for the governor. looks like the Spring is in the middle position at both upper and lower locations, Is this what you're referring to for governor control? Thank you Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Saving deeply discharged Optima 51R's

    I had some luck bringing some 4 V hawkers backup. The key thing is is not letting the charger go over 15 V as glass mat batteries do not like that. Usually an AGM charger will meet that criteria. But then again it's always a shot some have come back some have not. Also make sure they do not...
