    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    I added some rear facing lights. I had gotten some led work lights for Christmas and finally had a good use for them. Each light has 5 led bulbs they are just traveler brand from tractor supply I wired them in to a switch so when I turn it on i get the center oval light and the two led sets...

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    Since I put shackles on the truck I figured I should hang a chain from it. The funny thing about this chain is, that my mom found it and two others I the road.

    I was wondering how long it would take for someone to notice.

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    The way I understand it is the plugs stop getting power when the light goes out and you hear the relay shut off. But if something was to hang up and the power kept flowing the plugs would turn themselves off that's the way I understand it. Now I don't work for ac delco so it is possible I'm...

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    I could not get 13 G plugs and I was not using Wellman plugs, so I used the 60s. Also I read that the 60 plugs are self limiting meaning they should not melt theirselves.

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    well while back I finally got time to change the glow plugs. I want to napa and got Acdelco 60G plugs and new connectors. I was worried that the plugs would be stuck and that some would be burnt or broken. When I started removing the plugs the front plug on the drivers side was a little stuck...

    M1009 Will Not Start

    Hello. Do you have the stock fuel filter? Is there any fuel in it? Do you get fuel at the injectore lines? You need to make sure the fuel system doesn't have any air.

    m1008 straight pipe?

    My m1008 has straight piped exhaust and I like it. I had my local shop install 2.5 inch true duals and some 4 inch tips that are about 2 ft long. I like the sound I get but I'm 17 9i like loud engines. The truck is no louder than my dads 2000 Chevy 3500 with 7.4L gas burner with some no name...

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    I finally got around to mounting my CB radio in the truck. I just bolted the radio to the lid on the ammo can. The antenna is on top of the tool box, I have not talked to anyone yet. My handle is Rebel if anyone wants it. The radio is just a 40 channel radio shack unit that my granddad had in...

    Oil Consumption Question

    My 86 m1008 with 58k miles used less than a quart in the last 3k miles. I have a little seep here and there and the occasional puff of smoke but nothing that's not normal. I use nothing but rotella 15W40.

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

    I can definitely agree with the making you swear. I had to spend the day with my mom so I drove the green machine I meet her at the mechanic that she took her Toyota sequa to. We did a few things in town but anyway I had the truck decorated a little today. I had the two American flags on the...

    What do you build?

    I weld when I am working. I work in my dad fab shop when not in school. I can speak from experience when a day has you down I can go get under my hood and burn some wire. I don't know why but to me it is peaceful. Then I go run a few mags through my favorite um... (You get the point)

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

    Thanks buddy. I know its not a completely pure one, so I use touches of both the military and my own ideas, and this what it looks like.

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

    I messed with the truck some more today. Today I added some lights. The single oval light was ok but not enough. I had planned on adding read lights for a while but since dad bought a new Chevy 3500 with light in the mirrors I could not let him have all the fun. So I popped a hole in part of...
