    Cold Weather and CUCV's

    It should not have jelled on 24 oz. mixed in prior to the problem. Sounds like fuel problem. Get some Power Service 911 and fill a new filter with it and put it on. Prime it and try that. May have to charge batteries before it will start.

    Cold Weather and CUCV's

    What additive did you gel on last year? Were you using bio diesel? How much kerosene did you add to a tank?

    Cold Weather and CUCV's

    What kind of additive and the amount before it gelled? It takes a double dose of some additives when it approaches zero and below. Make sure to not use bio diesel. It attracts moisture. If kerosene or #1 diesel is available it is better for extreme cold. Truckers use to use 10% gas added to 90%...

    Stud part number

    All the small block chevy gas engines that I have worked on had smooth studs that screwed into water pump hub and then the pulley slipped on over them, then the fan clutch followed by a lock washer and nut. Real easy to assemble. Some of the big blocks had a longer stud bolt with lock washer...

    Electrical Issue

    If you disconnect the plug from the sensor does the wait light come on and stay on. Sounds like a loose wire or connection somewhere .

    Electrical Issue

    Since both coolant sensors are clicking either they are both bad or I suspect you have a problem with the plug to the sensor or the wiring itself. Do the sensors have resistance on a volt meter when cold?

    Electrical Issue

    What brand of glow plugs and temp switch on rear driver side temp sender and glow plug relay did you use? You have changed a lot of parts at once making it a little harder to diagnose. I suspect one of the new parts is defective or not the right one or a wire is in the wrong place or moving...

    Try putting in a healthy dose of Power Service , Stanadyne, or any other flavor of diesel additive and see how it sounds.

    What is this part- where can I obtain it, or should I make one?

    You can install a helicoil in a damaged hole and it is better than new. Just do not go any deeper with the drill than the hole is already. This can be done without removing the head.

    Tools to carry for busting MTVR tires?

    When buying one of these get the larger heavy duty version! Works a lot better on the stubborn break downs!

    M1009 engine difference

    All of the cucv's are made from 1984 parts. The military wanted them all the same. The year they were made is the only difference.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Actually changing the brushes and bushings and a few other items just to get a starter barely working is a "rebuilt" starter. It often has a few days warranty or none. It often works a while then fails. You might get a good one occasionally. A remanufactured starter is completely disassembled...

    Fuel issue , bad injection pump?

    I would run some Seafoam added to the diesel thru it and see if it smooths out first. Seafoam or Power Service will clean out a lot of injectors.
