I never bled mine afterwards. There's no pressure on the system at that point, and the hole the switch screws into is pretty small. You shouldn't lose very much between pulling the old switch out and threading the new one in. Scott

MW, We're staying at the Hyatt Place South Bend/Mishawaka. I think it's in the suburbs, but it had good reviews, and the price was reasonable. I'm not looking for anything in particular, but let the other guys know. We'll definitely stop by your table and visit! Scott

So, it's been awhile since I replaced mine, but I believe fluid will dribble out when you remove the switch. I advise to take a picture of the switch. Compare to pictures on line to see if yours is old style, or new style. Purchase the appropriate switch, replace, and refill the master cylinder...

I saw that one. Usually ships between 3-5 weeks. That's a long way out..... Scott

CUCVRUS, thanks for the link. I'll order one and check it closely. Lizzyfur, I apologize for hijacking your thread. Congratulations on your new M1009! I recently acquired a M1009 myself (well, actually my wife acquired it), which is why your thread caught my eye. I will echo the previous...

Autozone says it's back ordered from the manufacturer, and Summit says it might ship on August 2nd. I found a place called thewrenchmonkey.com, that claims to have them in stock. Ever heard of thewrenchmonkey.com?

Well, rats. I started looking for the CHFP906, and it's looking like they're pretty rare. Do you know where I can find one? Scott

LT67, What is the difference between the 2 lift pumps? I just ordered one from Rock Auto, and it's the MF30030...... Scott

I appreciate the info. I found a hotel with good customer reviews and a decent price, but I have no idea where it is in relation to the convention. We don't mind driving in from somewhere in town. We may walk up and down the street some once we get there. Scott

Welcome to the MV world. If your M1009 has the original 3.08 gear ratio, you should be able to go 70 mph-eventually. If you really want to pep it up, find a factory turbo setup from a 6.5 liter engine. With a manual boost control, and a little more fuel, it becomes very driveable. As far as a...

Myself, Pawnshop, and M813rc are planning to attend. Hotel rooms were secured this week. We won't have anything to display or sell, but I suspect we'll be spending a lot of time in the vendor area.:rolleyes: It's been a few years, so I'm really looking forward to it. Scott

I had to replace mine a couple years ago. I don't remember where I got the replacement, but my son and I did some serious prying to get it to pop into place. Once we got it in, it fit like a glove. Scott

Welcome to the club. Lots of members in D/FW and throughout Texas. Hope to see you at an event some day. Scott

Lots of really cool and really beautiful vehicles, but I have a soft spot for the M37.... Scott

Where did you get the upper intake manifold? Scott

Any small block Chevy will bolt up to the TH400 transmission, and the motor mounts. More power, decent fuel mileage, and with the 3.08 gear in the Blazer, no worries about excessive RPMs. Scott

Once again, a plethora of wonderful and interesting vehicles. And once again, I'm voting for my friend. MKCOEN, I expect a cheeseburger out of this!:razz: Scott

I assume you're referring to the timing chain/gear... I bought a gear set several years ago, but I don't remember from who. As i recall, it was a special run. No one that I know of is making them right now, due to low demand. The stock timing chain should last well over 100K miles. Scott

Glad to see you're up and at 'em. You and the little woman definitely need to bring that truck and the Champ to more events up north.

Can't let a fellow club member down. #3! Scott
