    low coolant light on and off

    Why wouldn't they? The wet coolant makes contact with the sensor, completes the circuit and the light goes out. What am I missing here? Stop the fear of everything that is aftermarket is taboo. At this point in the game if aftermarket parts were not available most of the CUCV's would be here.

    1986 M1031 Power Steering Pump and Steering Lines Removal/Replacement - $161

    Looks good. Fire it up. One thing I always do is put a flat washer on the inner adjustment slot right behind the P/S bracket. That way when you tighten the adjustment nut it makes square 360-degree contact on a flat surface, and you are not pressing a hex nut pattern into the back side slide...

    low coolant light on and off

    I would remove the wire at the radiator low coolant sensor and crimp the connection lightly. It may be a bit loose and making intermittent contact with the switch. that is after you visually check and make sure the coolant is full. Good Luck. #16. This sensor is readily available.

    1985 M1028 Diesel gauge

    25 years ago I needed a new diesel fuel gauge for a CUCV and this was all I could buy. I tried several times to get the OEM style and could not. I was at a GM dealer that I dealt with for many years and that is all they could get me. That gauge is in the Easter Find M1008 that I rebuilt about 8...

    M1008 Build

    The Chinese have military vehicles. The Chinese have big trucks also. Many old vehicles would be parked and unrestorable if were not for imported parts. Even new domestic vehicles are built with offshore parts. All of them have some Chinese parts in them. It started back in the late 70's.

    WOOD I loaded all this wood with 2 fingers and while sitting down. That was easy. I will split it 1 piece at a time while unloading it. The surge brakes on the M1102 trailer work great. The other trailer just pushes you all the way home. I think the M1028 is over the 9400GVWR. Have a Great...
