    24V Alternator for the 6.2

    It uses an unwieldy system with DUVAC's that is troublesome to say the least. More trouble than its worth. I would just do a 12v conversion before I ever considered going that route.

    24V Alternator for the 6.2

    Not really. The 24v alternator sees the two batteries in series as one battery. So there is no way for it to charge one of them while the other one is left alone. You will either be overcharging the second battery, or always have the first one low.

    24V Alternator for the 6.2

    Your issue when using it on a CUCV is that you have a 12v drain on the front battery to run your 12v componets. With the stock system since it charges each alternator on its own, thsi is not an issue. If you ran just a 24v altenrator this would cause issue as one battery would always see a drain...

    I have one of the large military battery charging panels, that comes in the aluminum case, if anyone has an interest in it.

    24V Alternator for the 6.2

    There are 24v units in the same Delco case as the stock 12v units. Any parts store should be able to get them, I think NAPA lists them under agricultural units.

    Yup. 6th Army is right. 6 indicates it was the detachment commanders vehicle.

    Engine stalls after cold startup after throttle blip

    Cold advance is activated by the green wire. It is controlled by the glow plug control card, that turns it on and off based upon the signal from the temp sensor. The schematic will show you all you need to know.

    Uncovered Markings on M880

    This is an odd one, it looks like it belonged to the 945th Engineer Detachment from Bismark ND. Post a VIN and I will see what data I can pull up.

    Correct bumper markings for 7th Army Ordnance Battalion?

    There are serval ways it could be done. The most likely would be: 7A 9/57 OD B-XX XX is the indivdiual trcuk number. Once again these vary, but 6 is almost always the commander, 7 the 1SG, 5 ops, and usually platoons were Broken down like 1X for 1st platoon, 2x for second...

    Engine stalls after cold startup after throttle blip

    Not a glow plug issue. Sounds more like your coled advance solenoid in the IP isn't working, either because it is shot or the wiring too it got messed up.

    best place to tune-up my 6.2

    If your truck seems to be running fine, don't mess with it. 90% of the time when someone says they had to adjust their timing as a fix, that is a clue that the IP is starting to go, and advancing the timing is just a mask for it.

    I have all that. I will bring my external hard drive to the rally. I have about 4 gigs of TM's and military diagnostic software on it.
