    Starter blowing fuses.

    I honetly dont know much, but I do know there are 2 posts on my solenoid for the relay. One is labeled I think B and the other S. (Outer post/Inner post) are you connected to the one labeled S, or the inside one? Is the fat wire connected to the bottom post? Is the post at the nose of the...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Got the heater/blower to work. Part of the electrical fried itself and melted the waire in half. I saw that when I bought it but only recently got around to working on it and totally forgot, so I spent an hour fumbling around with a multimeter and reading schematics. The melt was just before...

    Transmission Problems

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Ill probably end up taking it to someone... the more I grind out the rust the more I find stuff like this. The paint is just to keep the fresh metal safe until I figure out if I want to chance fixing it myself, and investing in a MIG. On the bright side, I have a drain to easily hose out the...

    Slight grind/clunk

    Only have had this M1009 for about 2 weeks now, Ive changed all the belts and blood and found nothing other than normal wear when going through with a magnet.

    How to Jump Start CUCV

    So my understanding of the system is that the resistance in the plugs ect is what drops the voltage for the glow plugs down to 12v... if this is correct wouldnt starting from only one battery not work as there wouldnt be enough voltage, i.e. the 12v starting would be even lower due to the...

    How to Jump Start CUCV

    Hopefully this isnt too much of a necro, but I didnt feel my question worthy of another thread when this is already here. For clarity, I understand that is both batteries are dead you need 2 other cars, one to jump each battery. Assuming you are on the side of the road, and only one person has...
