    Glow Plug Grounding Issue

    My M1009 won’t start, it tries but doesn’t turn over. I replaced the Glow Plug Relay, Glow Plug Card, The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (the sensor at the back of the engine drivers side). Months back I also replaced The Engine Coolant Temperature Switch, the sensor that’s at the back of the...

    Squibbly's M1009 and other Questionable Projects

    Looking good! You have cucvrus helping too. He’s the man! If you need a new manual crank handle for the rear, I got this one on EBay. I believe LMC Truck may have them as well. Thanks for keeping us in the loop...

    86 M1009 Water Pump

    Don’t forget to replace the Seal behind the Harmonic Balancer as well. It’s right there! I was able to get both of those parts from the dealer. Just a thought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    86 M1009 Water Pump

    The timing cover that sits right above the water pump might be an idea, if it’s still the original. Or at least put a new gasket/silicone around it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    Thank you again for your help! I’ll think about ordering one ahead of time. I’m a bit under the gun with time because I’ll be losing my big work space at the end of the month (we sold our family house). I struggle a lot with working on cars, I get frustrated. My Dad didn’t teach me a thing, he...

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    Ahhhh ok! I’m not very mechanically inclined and I have no help. This is why I’m so hesitant! I have seen a handful of videos, it doesn’t seem too complicated. I would love to clean everything while I’m at it, and maybe consider changing to LEDs. Worse case scenario, if the circuit board is...

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    For the Oil light I can feel part of the circuit board flaring out in two spots around/near the round part by where the socket goes. Maybe something got bent or peeled off. I can’t tell for sure what’s going on. I’ve tried looking with my cell phone but it’s not cutting it. I actually ordered a...

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    I’m fairly confident I may no what is wrong. The printed circuit is very loose and unattached around the two bulbs that aren’t working. When I put my fingers up there to unscrew the bulb sockets I can feel the circuit board not attached. If this is the case can/how do I fix this? I really hope...

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    p.s. if I need a new socket any idea what the part number is/where to get one? That gets me to thinking about LED bulbs and sockets. Hmmm, imagine green ones. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    Ahhh! Ok! I’ll look, I may even post a pic for you to look at. The 4 Wheel Drive light I’ll look at as well while I’m at it. Thanks again!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    I have noticed it’s hard to twist the Oil bulb back in. I have a suspicion the circuit board might be riding a tad high, blocking/obstructing the bulb. I’m wondering if there’s a way to just pull it down somehow. Maybe that will help with the connection as well. It was awfully dirty in that area...

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    ezgn that’s what I’m thinking as well. I watched a video and noticed my doesn’t look right. I’m going to go back under and really look around! Thanks for the help, I’ll report back! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    I’m beginning to think I should try cleaning the contact points for the bulbs. Where the bulbs contact the back of the dashboard. I just just don’t know if there’s enough room to do that without taking the dash apart. I’ll take a look! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What the Heck is Going On with this Speedometer???

    The fuse is fine. One thing I noticed is, it’s not easy to twist that oil bulb back in. Not sure if that matters. I’m sure hoping I don’t have to start taking the dash apart! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
