    M1008 Artic Kit, removal

    If you need the install manual for the heaters to help you uninstall let me know as I have it. Removal should be way easy compared to install lol. If you decide to keep it and it still runs dont run it on diesel the newer low sulfer crap will burn up your heaters wicks. I converted to kero and...

    M1008 only heats while driving

    anthother trick I use to help bleed the system is to park the vehical on a hill with the front end facing up this will help to get rid of the air as well when your bleeding it. sounds funny but it works. if that does not work the oother option is to pull a vacume and then suck the coolant in...

    fan switch wiring

    best fastest way for me at least is to just jump from the front battery (12volts!!!) straight to the fan. Of course this is a temp fix as it will run all the time but it will get ya home. I had this happen to me last winter, since then I have made up a 4 foot long wire with a alligator clip on...

    LP-fired Coolant Heater Idea!!!

    My arctic heaters work great can be pulled off line as they have quick connects for the coolant lines.

    24 volt saved me tonight

    not sure if you have one or not but get a 24 volt solergizer. I can leave my truck for a week or more and will still be showing good on the volt meter after starting. before I had it my volt gauge would be near the yellow till I drove for a bit and recharged it. Sun is free and the chargers can...
