    Temporary Regulator bypass

    papakb, thanks for the info but my batts were low. The voltmeter dropped basically all the way down and it turned over real slow. On that note I will be going through and cleaning all the connections and seeing how it responds.

    M109 Box Heater?

    It will burn basically anything but it is recommended to stick with either gas or diesel. I personally run mine on diesel because it is safer.

    M109 Box Heater?

    It should have the pump built into it.

    M109 Box Heater?

    It is an arctic kit that burns fuel to heat the coolant and circulates it around to keep the engine warm. Should work on any military vehicle.

My question is is there a way to bypass the regulator and have the generator dump a load into the batteries? The...

    I checked the voltage and it is on the low side and when I turned the screw nothing happened so I suppose the regulator is shot.

    Generator Output

    On the 60 amp generator what does your gauge normally read after you start hot or cold? Mine shows very little charge going in after it uses the glow plugs. I wait until I know they are off but the needle just sits right over the middle line. When I start it after it is warm (no glow plugs) it...

    Grinding starter?

    If the solenoid is working correctly I would replace the bendix drive, but if the solenoid seems shady it would not hurt to put a new one on. I had this happen once and my bendix was failing and it cause the solenoid to fail.

    Looks like HMMWV's are going to be in use for a long time to come....

    I am glad they are going to keep them around. They would last a lot longer if people treated them nicer over there. I have seen what people do in them and it is no wonder they have problems quicker.
