LOL. I drive it 100 miles a year, I don't have MPG #s. Lubrication and noise reduction are the only reason I need ;)

After my truck has been sitting for what seems like 6 months.. The first long stretch after installing the battery cutoff switch and fixing the fuel leak.. I was half expecting to have to use ether.... I think I might have gotten 3 rotations out of it before it fired right up...... As I was...

I have an M1031, box, PTO GEN, etc. sill plate says M1028. Box was produced in 1990 (Or '89, have to double check). I remember when I picked it up I thought it was weird that the title/vehicle were listed as 1028, and the box was produced years after the truck was made...

That SN is only 5 off from mine! Mine's 436....

There is a flaw in the way they set up the resistor bank. It uses the resistance of the glow plugs in combination with the resistor bank to reduce voltage. If you lose ONE glow plug, the voltage gets raised to all the other glow plugs, causing them to fail prematurely.. once 2 fail, then 3...

Where might one find such a beast?

details!!!!

AFAIK, on an NHC250, The only thing needing power, once running, is the fuel shutoff solenoid, which can be turned open manually if need be. That should be less than an amp...

...and stable.. I bet that things rock steady now..

I always thought the M1010 and M1031 (I have both) should have been DRW.

I wouldn't go any smaller than a Group 65. Group 31 or 8d preferred.

High flow pumps. Normal for 'big rig' pumps. Kinda different when you gotta fill 120 gal tanks. Even a single 80 gal tank takes ffoorreevveeerrr on a std pump.

Looks aren't everything.
