    M1009 Won't Start Suddenly and Melted Battery Post

    It makes little difference in a cucv(dual 12 volt alts) if your batteries match. I would follow the diagnostics procedure in the -20 tm for no start. It covers the gp system very well. You could have a fuel issue causing these hard starts too. Look for any wetness near the fuel filter.

    When referring to those tire sizes, there is no need to say singles, you cant fit duals. I just saved you some more typing.

    Starter turns when key out of ignition

    You have the wrong outlook for using this forum, if that is how you feel. This isn't about winning. It's not a battle or a game. It's about learning, teaching and helping. Having an open mind, helps a lot. Having the desire to understand helps a lot.

    Starter turns when key out of ignition

    Starter turns when key out of ignition

    Could be used to do what? Disconnecting the battery cable to the starter, will not always stop the starter from running on.(in post#89) It could actually add to the damage.

    By that standard, I think that makes my XM818, an M818A-1(minus one).

    Optimizing performance for 1% of the use of the vehicle, and compromising on road use/safety at a cost of $1000-3000 does not make sense.

    Well, there is a reason our rules ask for a state to be listed in your info. We used to enforce it.

    M35a2 oils

    Perfect term to use. When members here were using it 8-10 years ago, it failed in one spot in the 2.5 ton transmission. After a few of the failures were diagnosed, it became apparent that the oil was not working in one specific area. That created a track record that I have not forgotten...

    I question what tires are available to you in Britain.

    939A1 Power Steering Bleed?

    Why did the line blow?

    Power inverter system, dc to ac,

    Yes, I had one. Unless you need perfectly clean power for some sensitive electronics, it is overkill.

    Starter turns when key out of ignition

    If there was no malfunction(need for emergency action), why would you cut the wire with wire cutters?

    The alternators should not be affected if the batteries are disconnected.
