    New to the CUCV world.

    I have an APC turret hatch and mounting ring. That would work on your M1009.

    Rebuilding after 15 years of storage

    GREAT SUCCESS: I have sourced a new Delphi fuel lift pump for a CUCV. A Delphi HFP906. I am trying to do some negotiations to get more. I just wanted to put that out there. They are available but like other things there is a shortage of automotive parts and everything else. If someone is in dire...

    Do you want me to look and price you a pair of used original CUCV panels or do you wan blue panels?

    M1009 suppressor

    Stock designed was the AC Delco 1111 I just want to keep that straight. The trays were made to accommodate the Military 6 TL batteries but all CUCV's left the factory with the A C Delco 1111 maintenance free batteries. I bought 9 year old trucks that still had the original batteries in them...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Last night I spent the evening cleaning and sanding the rear cab roof flange on the M1009. This was a missed problem area on my past build. I must admit I overlooked the area and never liked messing with the roof seals of the M1009. I found that almost every M1009 I ever worked on leaked when I...

    Very Interesting. A ride on broom. I was always a push mower guy and still use the Honda HRX217 to push mow the lawn. I have 2 Honda tractors that I could use but I need the exercise. I see the ride on broom in your picture. WOW. Nice. I always sweep the shop with a push broom and every time I...

    Last (and only) cold start advance/high idle post/question

    I think he needs both. The one he showed on the drivers side rear was in rough shape and the harness was ready to short. But YES he still needs the fast idle sensor on the passengers side rear of the head. That is the expensive one. Good Luck. Take Care.

    Low budget repairs get the job done. I see stuff like this often.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I kept my word and was in the barn doing some seam sealer. I cleaned everything well and put a bead around each door and door opening. Then comes the messy part. I use my index finger and go around and press it into the seams. It looks great and covers well. After it was all done I closed the...

    New injection pump and binding throttle mystery

    That is the OEM glow plug sensor. I see you have 2 threads going so NO that does NOT control the fast idle. Someone already said that. But from the looks of that glow plug sensor it needs updated with the new sensor and plug. Check this out...

    Expensive. I don't think they are hard to find. But I know they got expensive.

    That is a pricey sensor.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Yea I know. I get sidetracked a lot I plan on getting some progress this week. Getting the seams sealed and interior door and fender panels primed and painted. There are just not enough hours in the day. I am doing well. Work is crazy and I am only 1 person. Not like it was when I was 30-40...

    Rebuilding after 15 years of storage

    Good Luck. I am going to be talking with the local GM dealer and see if he can get me an origial Delphi pump. You have a relic from the past with that original AC fuel pump. I am still weary of that left pump doing the job you intend it to do. I have been down this road several times and have 2...

    Door panels and windows

    Hey and the next time that happens where the arm rest screws are rusty and you can't drill them out. Gently pry out on the door panel and get a ratcheting wrench up under there and remove the 2 1/4" bolts that hold the metal arm rest bracket in place. It is that easy. Then you use a vise grips...

    I know a guy in Pennsylvania that has a few OEM used CUCV door panels. A few. Are you interested? Let me know. I even have Blue ones that are stock blue thru and thru.

    CODE RED: That does NOT look like the correct pump. Just saying. It has that slight bend curve in the end of the arm. That style has free play in the stroke. The box had the straight lever. I am just pointing it out from far away. Some looks odd here. Place it in the palm of your hand and...

    Rebuilding after 15 years of storage

    Easy way to test is if the resistance pumping action begins immediately upon depression of the lever. No free play (zero) It will have immediate resistance and the pumping begins. Make sure to change the push rod cover plate gasket at the same time. Grease the push rod and shove it. Assemble all...

    This is a good picture of my Grand Son. My helper. I prepped a bunch of parts and hung them up outside. I primed and painted them and told him NOT to touch the things. An hour or so went by and I wondered why he wasn't coming in the garage and was sitting on his bike for a long time. I called...
