I have the problem that the starter motor no longer fits exactly and it is pure coincidence when the teeth engage correctly.
I assume that the bolt holes in the starter motor have been worn out due to use without a 3-bolt bracket and no longer fit properly.
My engine wash probably loosened so...
The screw that is supposed to hold the transmission lines is already missing. That was a question I couldn't even ask at the moment.
If the holes are slightly "egg-shaped", is there a way to repair it without changing the whole starter motor?
Can anyone provide a source of supply for the...
I have new screws here, but I haven't used them yet. I also have the additional bracket here and have realised that the screw on the engine block has only been screwed in.
OK... I now have the problem that when I use the old screws, the starter motor wobbles as described. This means that if I...
The protection is this metal cover sitting in front of it, right? How many screws are there (in total) and is there anything to consider when dismantling - and later reassembling?
Why I want to do the check... well... the starter motor wobbles when I tighten it. This means that when I tighten...
Dear Steel Soldier Community,
I have a very serious comprehension problem.
In this thread I had discussed a starter motor that was constantly coming loose and we quickly found out that the rear fixation was simply not fitted and the starter motor is only fixed to the two strong bolts directly...
I had hoped that I had already explained this.
What have I got now?
I have a warning light that comes on when the engine is already overheated.
I wanted to take the general temperature at the radiator, because this is where the engine sends the hot water to cool down. As there don't seem to be...
I have already thought about installing a sensor adapter in the radiator inlet. Then, even if I want to sell it later, I will only need a replacement hose.
Does anyone know in which TM a part number of the radiator inlet hose and / or its inner diameter can be found?
Of course, there is not just ‘black and white’ in Germany either. Not everything is always observed. But as a rule, in Central Europe the radiator water is run with antifreeze.
OK... Thanks for your answers
@cucvrus
Thank you for your tip and the answer
OK, I don't want to push the M1009 to its performance limit.
I just want an additional display that shows me the general engine temperature via the cooling water. The ‘warning devices’ installed as standard in the M1009 are ‘simply written’ too few...
I know that you are the CUCV and Blazer expert. Is there really no way to use a "blind plug" directly on the radiator, an unused inlet or outlet pipe in the radiator to fit an additional sensor?
@Jeepadict
Thank you for your reply.
This thread is basically about an additional sensor.
Can...
@Jeepadict
Thank you very much for your answer.
Unfortunately - for me personally - I have the problem that I can't really get any further with the CUCV TM. I have them all here and yet I can't find any information on how to change the coolant completely.
That's why I'm asking here, because...
Some new Question:
Blanking plug standard - original - radiator - M1009 / Chevrolet Blazer K5 6,2 Diesel - Link
Complete refilling of the cooling water, tips, tricks and points to watch out for with the 6.2 Detroit Diesel - M1009 / Chevrolet Blazer K5 6,2 Diesel - Link
Best regards

Dear Steel Soldier Community,
A very simple question, it's about the complete change of the cooling water.
Is there a description of how to change the cooling water in the forum or in one of the technical manuals? If anyone knows the place in the technical information and manuals where this is...
Dear Steel Soldier Community,
I'm hoping that the forum's wealth of knowledge will enable me to avoid one of the steps.
First of all, an explanation:
I would like to install a second sensor to determine the temperature of the cooling water in addition to the "factory-installed" cooling water...
Hello,
I am not concerned with the function of the starter motor. I had read that the engine often stops in the same or a similar position when it is switched off.
In short, how can I keep the engine running without partially dismantling it?
The question is still open for me, it must be...
Hello everyone,
I don't want to give the wrong impression. I don't think the engine is stuck. No water has gotten into the combustion chambers and the last time the engine ran normally was in August 2023.
However, I had read that when the engine is "switched off", the starter ring gear often...
Hello dear CUCV community,
can someone describe this to me in more detail and possibly explain with one or two photos where to put which key in order to turn the engine further?
It's difficult for me to imagine, as I don't have much space behind the engine to "turn the engine further"?
Best...
Don't worry. Me and the M1009 are still real, we are still here. The M1009 is currently dry in the underground garage. I still haven't got over the problems with the starter motor - see the thread - and one battery has also gone to the “eternal hunting grounds”. Now that the weather in Germany...
