Could it be the Alternator draining the battery? bad Diode or something.

I had a starting issue with my crew cab and it was the OPTIMA Yellow battery on the 12 volt side. It was 3-1/2 year old battery and would go dead after two days(6 months ago it would go dead after 4 or 5 days). Load test showed weak after I recharged it. Put a new OPTIMA Battery in and no...

Welcome from South Florida.

They told me the same thing about 4 months ago on a pallet from Florida to Utah. I tried it a week later and they sent me a quote(good to ship). I sent the MRAP light kit on a pallet. It took 3-1/2 weeks to get to Utah. Then when the guy went to pick it up, they wouldn't release it to him...

The guys on Camp Dodge said that the Navy turned it in to DRMO. It's faded green.

Guest I'll add my new 2000, CUCV-II, 6.5L Turbo Dually to this thread.

Picked up two heavy pallets today. 3,921 lb. Having a starting issue again with this truck. Going to clean the battery terminal's to see if this is the problem.

I swapped out the 24 volt solenoid for the 12 volt solenoid from the old CUCV pump. I also swapped the top cap. If I had to do it again, I would just install a new CUCV pump.

I installed the same engine in my M1028A2 Dually. see thread below. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?66745-Dually-M1028A2-South-Florida-Rebuild You don't need to change the oil pan, it will fit in your truck. The oil pan on the GM 6.2 engine will not fit on the GEP 6.5 engine. When...

Not a clue on numbers or type's out there. This is the first Dually I have seen so I just had to have it.:wink: FYI: the AC is blowing ice cold.

Bought two new batteries today from pep boys...35% off on line. Great deal. Installed the batteries, was going to replace the fuel filter but it is brand new. Air filter is new also. Looks like they just serviced the truck. Primed the fuel system and turned the key.........it started right up...

Dropped the fuel tank, cleaned inside(not really needed). Sock was clean. Reinstalled sending unit and tank back on the truck.

I need to find a DUVAC that mounts behind the seat.......someone removed it.

I thought about removing the bed. Truck is still on the trailer and I'm almost have the tank dropped. I removed 20 gallons of clean looking fuel already which is a good sign.

Started the truck this morning after the long trip to Iowa and back. Had fuel leaking under the truck. Opened the hood and fuel was spraying out the side of the injector pump. Looks like o-ring failure on the side cover. Screws were tight. I took a side cover off a used spare I had and it...

Took a few pictures today. Engine looks good. Batteries will not take a charge. Nice never used jack setup behind the seat. Going to drop the fuel tank and make sure it's clean( fuel cap was missing and who knows what went into the tank ) To due list after cleaning tank is: Replace fuel...

Made it home at 6 am this morning. No issues. I was traveling at about 68 to 73 MPH most of the way. Traffic in Atlanta on Friday was a killer. Stop and go.

Stopping at the Cracker Barrel in Dalton, GA to eat. All is good so far.

Just stopped and filled up at Taylor, MIssouri with 93 gallons of diesel...$200 at $2.14 a gallon. Cheapest I saw on the way up. Phillips 66 station.
