    Improving fuel mileage?

    I don't know if it is worth the gain but i have heard that putting a electric fan on and taking off the mechanical one will give you about 1-2 miles per gallon better. I don't know if this is true but it makes sense, less that the engine needs to turn

    total light failure

    rear window problem

    I would say that the window regulator is shot, but i have not had many problems with the back window, as i found mine off of a civilian truck that has a power rear window, if you find one at a junk yard i would recommend it.

    half the price glow plugs.

    I have had the AC60G's, and they have been in my M1009 for 1 year and 3 or 4 months and i just checked them the other day and not a single one was bad or swollen. I would HIGHLY recommend the AC60G's over any other brand, I have had the welmans and i will NEVER buy them again

    I had a electric fuel pump installed, solved my problem with the fuel drains back down the line, i would recommend installing one it solves ALOT of problems with the mechanical fuel pump letting fuel drain back and causing the vehicle to be hard to start.
