I think the throttle shaft seals are leaking but from what I am hearing you say the injection pump is sure to need some repairs. I would recommend getting it rebuilt. It makes a huge difference in the drivability and reliability. Many guys dance around taking the step and in the end it is...
Like anything else you buy everyone has an opinion and most that sound off are negative. I have used https://dieselcare.store/ for many diesel vehicles and equipment. I may have had 1 incident that I had issues with. The vehicle was not running when it came to me. And after I discovered the...
Next you need A/C in the back. Hot and sweaty is no way to enjoy wine tasting.
I work for a winery over the summer. http://www.parenfaire.com/flavorfest.html

You can replace that switch in the column. My last few times of having a column apart have been a great success. The key was to remove the entire column and place it on a flat dry surface and work on it. do NOT follow you tube where they tear into it and I never seen them put it back together...
OK. Now I understand how the front clearance lights get cribbaged / smashed on every M1102 generator trailer. I fixed all mine and went out in the big world to crush stones. I went off the road in a light wooded area and when I came out the right side was smashed flat from a sapling that caught...
ssdvc your batteries are living on a hope and prayer. Low amperage is hard on starters and CUCV's in general. It only cost's a few dollars more to go first class. WOW. I seen the price that people are paying for these CUCV's on GovPlanet. Crazy man crazy.

My upgraded CUCVRUS JR hood ornament. Going thru the deep water was no problem. I had a rock between the front axle and rear axle and was stuck. No problem when wheeling with a 5 ton.
Have a Great Day and enjoy the Spring weather. Finally. I just hope it stays around now.

Fernco makes all sorts of rubber reduction connections. I have ACE the friendly hardware place right down the road from me...
Get started by spraying penetrating oil on the rear strap nuts. They are on a 7/16" stud. You will need an 11/16" wrench to hold the bottom nut while you loosen the top nut. An impact works great to shock the nut and loosen it quickly. Do not force it or hammer on it with the impact. Show some...

I could be wrong about the 1/4 tank auxiliary tap. But yes you can drain it that way for sure. I forgot more things in the past 5 years than I care to admit. But I install generators on Ford trucks and...
Not sure if anyone mentioned it but that auxiliary tap into the fuel tank will only draw the fuel tank down to a 1/4 tank. That was a smart thing to let the vehicle have a 1/4 tank so you could drive and get more fuel if the equipment you were running off the tap ran out of fuel. Good Luck. It...
Good News is I have a brand new OEM GM M1009 right 1/4 panel if you are interested. Let me know. That area that is damaged on yours is a tough area to get straight. Lots of unreachable pockets and detail work to get everything fitting correctly without filling it. Good Luck. I just wanted to put...
I have completed the 4 spring addition on several CUCV units for snow plowing. I bought the spring packs at Stanley Springs Harrisburg PA.

And in this case with color match issues I would opt to have the entire vehicle repainted. That is what happens with special colors. If the vehicle was damaged by another party it could be discussed in a civil tone to have the paint job redone. I would not get loud and claim things that are not...
