    electric fan ?

    There is a plug in the water pump and there is also a replacement cover plate for the back of the passenger side cylinder head that is tapped for a sensor. The cover plate is getting harder to find, as I understand it.

    Assistance needed!! my m1009 will not start

    Usually only if it is warm enough, fast cranking speed and good fuel delivery with no air in the lines. Did you test your glow plugs and the rest of the glow plug system? If so, how? Have you followed the trouble shooting steps in the TM for a crank but no start situation?

    My first CUCV M1028A1

    That sure doesn't sound right. Please diagram how you have the switch wired. If I remember correctly, splicing into the light blue wire should be fine, with the other end connecting to ground via the switch.

    CUCV M1009 Alloy Wheel

    Stock M1009 has 6-lug wheels. The data listed in the first post indicates that is an 8-lug wheel. So, no worky unless the axles have been swapped from something like an M1008.

    Rusty the M1009 comes home

    That is for the stock passenger seat in a civi Blazer. The whole stock passenger seat tilts forward to allow access to the back seat. That bracket is that the seat latches onto when in its normal position.

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    No, the buss on the passenger side is the 24v bus, and I was referring to the 12v buss. As for the measurement you are getting between, what I assume is the 24v buss terminals, there is and/or was a noise filter capacitor tied between the + and - side of the 24v buss. Also, there could be a...

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    Disconnect batteries, remove and disconnect voltmeter, connect it directly to a power source, such as the batteries and verify if the gauge works. If it does, then start tracing the wiring to the gauge. Remember that the gauge is *supposed* to have 24v at *ALL* times, but the ground connection...

    E-Bay Wiring Harness

    There is a "Pay it Forward" thread in the Classifieds where this could be listed. If you were closer, I'd love to have it though!

    Legally driving home

    The receipt from GL, proper insurance, and whatever your state requires for a one-way trip permit of an unregistered vehicle. Oh, and possibly whatever license requirements your state has for that class of vehicle. Call your insurance company and your state's DMV to find out what they need.

    Changed ALT 1 Belt

    Can't speak to the cooling of the plugs with the fuel, but can say that the glow plugs often cycle in the "after glow" period and the WTS light is off at that time.

    Changed ALT 1 Belt

    The "throttle blip" to get one, or both, GEN lights to go out on start-up is normal, and even mentioned in the TMs. When started cold, both my GEN lights are on, and a small blip will get GEN 2 to go out, and a bit more of a blip will get GEN 1 to go out. Once warm, only the GEN 1 light needs...

    24 Volt Red Starter Relay Wire Dead

    There is a nice fusible link sticky in the CUCV forum that covers all of this in one convenient location. There is also a 24v fuse in the fuse box.

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    I keep seeing variations of this statement here, and I think it leads to some confusion. While technically correct, one should consider that in the CUCV battery cable wiring scheme, the negative terminal of the rear battery and the positive terminal of the front battery are connected by the...

    m1009 starting issue need some help

    Yes, the WTS light will still come on, but one indicator that the relay is bad is how long it is staying on. The glow plug controller gets a voltage reading from the glow plug side of the relay, so the light staying on longer than usual indicates there is a problem. You can try jumpering the...

    m1009 starting issue need some help

    The glow plug relay has been known to stop passing voltage / current to the glow plugs due to its internal contacts getting carboned up.
