Got everything fixed. When I replaced the IP, I had to swap out the shut off solenoid from 24v to the 12v version. In doing so the spade was just barely touching the IP causing the short. Hooked up the connections to the electric fuel pump and fired right up. Running strong now. No more...

So I checked everything over again. Turn the ignition on and again immediately burned this fusible link, can someone steer me in the right direction? Red fusible link.

I'd like to look at some stuff under the hood of a running truck.

spotted a M1009 driving on Fort Campbell today.

The fuel pump is wired with an inline fuse to the black/pink striped wire that gives 12v ign. Went to the fuel filter assembly. 2 wire connector, I can't remember what color the other wire is.

Hmmm, I did ground that big black wire to the rear intake bolt. There braided wire from the firewall to intake, small black wire to intake bolt (I can't remember where it comes from), and the big black wire from the bus behind rear battery on the firewall grounded to rear intake bolt.

Pic of the burnt fusible link Anyone here in the Ft Campbell area? Anyways, after a IP replacement, I pieced everything back together, turn the ignition to ON and thats when things started to sizzle. One of the fusible links burned for sure near the GP relay. I haven't been able to see what...

I'm getting 12v to the IP. I've started many times now with no issues. Driven it around without any issues either.

Well I checked the GPs for resistance...all read less than 0.1 ohm checked for voltage to the IP... that's literally all I did and the truck fired right up. Idles and runs strong.

I definitely agree with band-aid fixing, Skinny. Never planned the electric pump as a fix. Just wanted to know how things are running with functioning mech LP vs strictly electric- also how the lines that once went to the mech LP are routed. I will replace the IP, I want this thing as a...

I haven't verified the GP's since I brought the truck home. I know that the truck started no problems in the Pittsburg cold when I picked it up. As for the IP check valve, yes it the ball was covered in crud. As for the IP cover, I cracked open the cover and I've attached two pics, one of...

My m1009 lost power with throttle input and would die if I gave too much pedal. I had to feather to bring RPMs up. This is vehicle is very new to me. I drove it for about 5 hrs trying to make the trip home from PA to TN. its a 1985 with 44k miles on it. It started losing power progressively...
