As long as you have the 200 or 400 amp dual voltage alternator, you can pull 12v off it. I installed a 200 after already installing a Victron 24 to 12v inverter, so just grounded the 12v feed of the alternator out. For your 12v accessories, you can run a single 12v- to a small bus bar near your...

Any luck on this?

Good clarification. That was the first order of business when I dropped mine. The tank wasn't the original bull nose one, but had been upgraded to the 25 gallon so was significantly newer (and cleaner) than the 1988 original.

Still got them? I'll take one. Dropping that tank is a PITA. Only want to do it twice 😉

Congratulations on finding the culprit! Must be quite the relief to have the truck running again. I've gone through most of the usual suspects on mine, sock was not bad but switched it anyway. Injector bleeding time...

Did not try disconnecting and reconnecting #54 (front wire on the IP). Had felt it when the ignition is turned on and off and it does click. Should be good?

Milcommoguy, the metering valve is clicking and getting 20+ volts, do you think it could still be clogged up? Should I pull it and run it through a sonic cleaner? Not sure on IP run time. The vehicle is an 88, I put 16k on it myself for a grand total of 32k on the odometer (this odometer at...

Thanks. Was just trying to figure out if there was another obvious issue so I wasn't pissing in the wind cracking injectors (some of them are a right PITA to get to). Time to start pissing in the wind :)

Plugs are fully functional. Installed a momentary manual system due to dumb box malfunction a while back. Everything worked fine for a number of years. When the glow plugs were not working before there was a strong fuel vapor emitted from the exhaust after cranking for a bit. There is no fuel...

I've tried pressurizing the tank a little while cranking to get fuel up to the IP, which appears to work. Now I'm trying to decide whether all injectors need to be cracked to expel air (tough accessing some of them), or if the solenoid is possibly the culprit.

History: -Have had HMMWV for about 6 years, ran fine (with repairs and maintenance). Did not start it for almost 2 months. Vehicle had 1/4 tank of older fuel. Will not start now. Current symptoms: -No fuel expelling from exhaust on cranking. Not starting. Note: Glow plugs working normally, new...

Thanks for your input. As far as the vehicle, looking to have it close to spec in look and function, but not concerned with form quite as much as function. Cost is another factor, with the Seco roof coming in at the lower end. Would go full turret, but tough to get all the supporting parts so...

Frost0071, what's the rough weight on that Secoparts non-turret hardtop? Reason I ask is that I currently have a slantback setup from the c-pillar back along with the hardtop a-pillar, so am deciding on which way to go with the hardtop. Key requirements are no excessive weight (compared to...

Thanks for the closure. I was searching something else, and this one popped up ;)

Any pics? I know it's been 6 years.

100%. No burnt plugs since, no issues. Very reliable.

Or legally. It can be based off an officers bias, like anything else. Most like military vehicles, but obviously I got the prius driver. Luck of the draw. I was perhaps a bit parabolic in my initial statement, due to my displeasure. Thank you, no offense taken. I'm sure we'd hear more...

Yes. He owns a car dealership as well. Thank you. It is a blessing in disguise, assisting in decision making.

Again, your milage may vary. Hopefully my situation is a one off. I am a first responder, and have good access to law enforcement. The consensus is there are no options, short of legal. Legal action against the state can be very costly, and is often futile without large funding.

What are you talking about? Irresponsible? For stating actual fact? You are welcome to your opinion. But remember, it's an opinion, with absolutely no knowledge of the situation. Mine is experience. Hopefully it is only one instance.
