check wheel bearings. could be the rotor rubbing on the dust shield.

i put over 300 miles on it since replacing the pump. once it starts its fine. it just loses prime after sitting over night if you park it nose up in the driveway. i sprayed the **** out of the filter (which is new) and noticed diesel at the bottom of it after a hard day of driving. i am really...

alright....trucked parked nose up and it will not start. back truck in driveway, nose down, starts all day long...

leave the pump a little loose to give some wiggle room to reattach the flared nut.

low batteries? i had no problem getting the lower line on. just make sure you have a new clamp and a long extension with a 1/4 socket.

if the rod falls down take the plate off and just take it out and dip the end of it into some grease and stick it back in. its not as bad as it looks. hopefully you got the cam on the low side and it will only take a little pressure to get the pump back on. insert the pump on a little bit of a...

always run diesel 911 every other fill up. i backed it into the yard last night and it fired right up! it sat for 24 hours. so now what? my driveway is on a slight incline so when its pulled in forward it sits up in the front. now the front of the truck is lower than the bed....

any chance of posting a pic of the shutoff?

checked the valley pan. no wetness. ran fine all day after putting a squirt of ether in it. once it starts its fine. will try to check cap tomorrow...

86 m1008 with 18000 original miles. ran great. all of a sudden it seems to lose prime after sitting over night. pull the pink wire, crank, bleed, repeat. after it runs it will restart no problems. i put a new fuel pump on and same thing. going through the posts i saw something about a fuel...

used por15. looks really good. wear gloves......

i had a hard time getting a harness for mine. it seems like the 3 pin rubber plugs were very early gm an continued on the cucv series. finally put a used one in my truck. good luck.

so what is a good starting ratio for a m1009 with 90,000 miles? just filter the oil and drop it in? same with waste oil? what cooking oil burns best. most places use the creamy type of oil in fryers, not liquid. thanks for any advice.

high output j-code motor? you can time the quarter mile time with a sundial!!

just picked up a mint one at the junkyard last week. if you want to pay shipping there are a few more at the pick a part...i think they cost around twenty bucks.

lucky it broke at home and not on the interstate. pretty amazing feeling when the back of your vehicle is 5 feet in the air!!! breaking a front u-joint while traveling is nasty. i went throug2 of them myself. 67 chevelle doing about 30 flipped the car 90 degrees in the road. m1009 broke while...

thanks for all the help. the Vacuum Regulator Valve was only held in with one bolt and was the problem. it was bad so i think somebody put it on after they took the other one off. i am guessing this because i had no brake lights and checked everything before noticing the switch on the brake...

just picked up a low mileage m1008. it was not shifting right when i got it. replaced all vacuum lines and the modulator and it still is not right. checked vacuum at the pump and needle bounces wildly from 0-15. put in a new pump and now pulls a strong 15-17 with no needle bounce. still does not...

i had the same problem. try to bypass the noise suppressors/capacitors. it worked for me.

88,000 on my tan one. 162,000 on my camo truck. the camo only gets driven in the winter for snowplowing. has a 7 1/2 meyers and burns roughly a gallon an hour while pushing.
