Do not forget the voltage drop scenario as the starter, solenoid, and wires heat up. This will create voltage drop and at 12v may be affected greater than at 24v.
The math comes out the same but in reality, it just doesn't function equally. If the starter cables remain the same size in...
I'm not sure what you are converting the M1031 to but I would like to add another saddle tank. I think I'm going to weld a filler neck at the top at an angle. Hope it works. You can buy kits online that have a cnc'd threaded piece to weld in with a cap.
I have been thinking a lot about something like this for my M1031. Example would be running a fridge, microwave, etc.
I have come to the conclusion as to not screw with a good thing. I am keeping my trucks electrical system isolated. I am going to put a shore power plug to run all of my trucks...

Four individual roads all next to each other in parallel with an overpass above. The GPS basically self destructs. It still knows how fast you are going though. So atleast you know how fast you are going when you want to kill someone:D
I paid $6k for mine which was mint condition. Meaning everything there, absolutely no rust, solid rig. Don't get me wrong, it still needed so much maintenance but all the big ticket items were there. I think I could have maybe gotten a slightly better deal or price, I never looked back at...
Great location for speedo parts!
I have a 205 tcase. All I saw was the gear that is splined onto the output shaft. I need to change the speedo cable gear I'm assuming. This site didn't have too much on the 205 tcase.
Besides just doing a typical AC compressor install on the 6.2, I think there is only one better alternative. Use a small gas engine to power a compressor and small alternator. Make the system completely self sufficient. You can run it when the truck isn't on. The power for the blower and...
Sounds like it is time to park it and tear in. Pull every electrical component apart and clean it, rebuild both alternators, replace both batteries, change out the box filter for a spin on, change all glow plugs and verify proper operation, do a resistor bypass mod, doghead mod, etc etc etc...
This is what happens when young kids can't figure out a standard H shift pattern on a six speed transmission. Why does the scan tool show a cam and crank correlation issue at 13,000 rpms??? DOH! Don't let off the clutch pedal unless you know what gear you're in :)
OK, that is a moment of stupidity. :shock:
Conventionally on a gas engine, this would happen. I stand corrected on a diesel this would pump into the vacuum pump assembly. I bow down to the doghead todayfat lady sings
First things first...
If the modulator failed, transmission fluid would be sucked into the engine to be burned. That would smoke but you would have white smoke coming from the tailpipe. Very doubtful that it would leave liquid ATF to spray the back of your rig.
If a cooler line came apart and...
I like the factory black steelies because it looks original. Your rig with the H2's still looks like a honey badger truck. For those of you that don't know the honey badger...it is pretty bad a$$.
Run it!!!
I would pay that money for one that was untouched, recent IP done, and is pretty much turnkey.
For some reason, people think molested, unmaintained, and modified CUCV's should go for that kind of money.
Search for my threads if you want a Stanadyne FM100 filter setup. If you want a Napa base, someone has a thread on that as well.
You are looking for the blue wire going into the GP controller. Wire this to ground through a momentary contact switch. This will override the controller for glow...
If you want a manual valve, you need one of these:
Groco FV65038 Fuel Valve 6 Port
I will doing this instead of the electric valve on my M1031 when I add the additional saddle tank.
