Good to know, thank you. I have yet to find someone who does them locally. That gives me an idea of what it should/could cost. Was the $580 recent? Scooter...

That's what I'm afraid of, it's old but I knew that when I bought it. I'll provide cost details once the replacement of the IP begins. I'll likely wait until September or so before I get back to it. I've called a couple diesel shops so far and as expected, the knowledge to rebuild and calibrate...

Yes, hot air does come out of the vents. Another thing I'm going to check before it gets too hot is for air coming in from the fuel filter housing. It's not leaking but I know it can be a problem. Either way though, chunks of something in the IP are of concern. Scooter...

Not sure, it matched the old one and it's ran fine for months. I don't think there was anything wrong with the one I took out but changed it because everything is old. There is still pressure to the IP. I ran a camera into the fuel tank. The tank is clean like new and the filter sock looks to...

Lift pump has been replaced by me the last time this happened, no rebuild on IP that I am aware of. Scooter... Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk

Will do, I've never seen anything come out of the dip stick tube but l've not looked too close for that either. The emissions testing is a requirement in AZ. I've argued this with the DMV here each year. It has the sticker on it that says it's exempt like all the others. They just want their...

I just took the cap off mine again to make sure the metering valve was free and found a chunk of black hard "rubber" debris sitting around the metering valve. There were two more small particles that looked like pepper which others have mentioned. So, it looks like an IP it is. I'll be waiting...

Interesting LT67, did you have a coolant leak on the water pump or was the problem completely internal? Agreed, there is a reason they made a front grill cover. It's a perfect ride to work in the winter living in AZ. Where it snows, I might need a grill cover! The 6.2 is a cooler running engine...

I don't think it's the engine. When it runs, it runs good. Starts right up, burns no oil, Barely smoked at all until I changed out the fuel cut off solenoid. I'm confident it's the fuel delivery one way or another. It certainly could be the IP. The strange part is that it ran fine below 80deg...

Current IP position. Scooter... Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk

Thanks Keith_J, I'm smelling what you're cooking. Can you expand on the hot pump issue? The troubles start when it's warmed up; however, I don't believe the engine is overheating at all. Are you saying the cold advance pin is getting stuck? Scooter...

Okay, thank you.I'll take a look at that tomorrow. When the advance is energized there is no significant if any change to the motor. Scooter... Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk

Okay; so, I installed a new fuel cut off solenoid and checked the return check valve for debris and it was clean. It started up as usual with cold idle advance and sounded much better actually. I went inside so it could warm up and when I came back out it had stalled. I started it back up and it...

Got it, I will do this next week once I get off work. Thanks! Scooter...

I pulled the cap off the IP, it's very clean inside. I found a few small particulates but nothing frightening or unexpected from 1985. The fuel cut off and cold start solenoids activate when energized. Does the cold start solenoid have a spring return to the "open" position? Mine returns or...

As suspected, it started right up with the standard increase in cold idle speed and regular power. Repositioned in my shop after the tow yesterday with no issues. If the cold advance was getting stuck, I should have seen a lot of smoke out of the tailpipes right? Scooter... Sent from my...

It is strange, especially when it's been running fine. As for engine temp, I have no idea but I don't think so. I drive 45 minutes one way on the freeway to work and I've had zero issues. Engine temp, is another gauge install! I just installed a trans temp gauge on Monday and it's hovering...

Thank you for the information, which terminal/wire are you referring to? The green one? Scooter...

Okay, this has probably been covered before but I've not found anything to reference yet. I've been driving my M1009 for a couple months now, almost daily. It's been running great. About a year ago the same thing happened right around the same time of year. What I did after the first time it...

Glad you were able to get one. New ones are apparently non existent. I'll figure something out eventually! I had to get a tow home today, now I have to figure that out. I started a new thread regarding what I'm working through here...
