There was nothing left in the middle. I replaced the wire and the gen meter jumped back up to full. I am gonna look through the manuals and see what fuse was in there. It's jerry rigged for now, and next time I will disconnect the battery. Oops.
Wanted to quickly change my belts and had the passenger side alt terminal touch something and got a crack and smoke from the drivers side terminal board just above the glow plug relay. Brown fusible wire.
Can I drive to a local shop to pick up a new wire or should I wait for the wife to come...
Any hydraulic shop would be able to make them for you. Not sure on what it would cost though. I was looking into the same thing a couple years ago as I had the rad out and twisted up the old lines getting them off. The dealership told me the vehicle was obsolete and they dont carry the lines. My...
I couple months ago I was driving my trusty M1009 home with a full tank of diesel from a friends house in the boonies. About 20 miles from home the truck stalled out and the gas gauge read empty. After getting out of the truck I found the engine compartment and the entire passenger side was...
I am lucky enough to work at a hanger and crossing my fingers that one of our Aircraft has a fuel cell issue so I can get some free JP8 myself. I see the point with some 2 stroke oil as turbine engines dont require lubrication from the fuel. And whenever we do a fuel cell job we vasoline the...
**** I was hoping people would say that. Is it an ASAP thing or can I run it like that for a week or 2?
Also before the battery issue when I started the truck the the GEN 1 light would come on but as soon as I gave it some gas it would go out. Now the same happens but the gen 2 light comes on...
Well my 1009 wouldnt start yesterday morning. Wouldnt jump start so I took both batteries into a shop to get them tested. The front one was putting out 800 CA I think and the other one was dead. They trinkle charged it over night and it was pooched.
So I have been reading on the forums about...
Now that I think of it that is exactly what it is, a needle grease fitting. Thanks alot for that, I am glad I didnt try to drill it out.
I do love Vancouver Island, I have lived here most of my life though and am hoping to get posted out east next year. The half a million price tag for a fixer...
Well I replaced all the u-joints on the front shaft. Glad the local Canadian Tire loans tools, got a U-joint puller which came in handy. Better than beating them out like we did when my rear on went on the trip back.
Not sure if I messed up the rear yoke that mats to the transfer case but it...
Well you can fix STUPID!!!
Took the housing off the shifter and found i need to shift it to the right to get it in neutral (been driving a push button 4x4 for too long)
Front shaft doesnt look like its been greased since I was a teenager so I am going to clean it up and probably replace all...
Hey guys, when I picked up my 09 from GL I was told it had a transfer case issue. Wasnt too worried about it at the time but now I am looking into it a bit more. It shifts to Hi but wont go into Neutral. Yes I have it in Neutral and I have read the instructions on my visor. I dont wanna waste...
