    Best gear setup to get out of the deep mud: H.... HL...... D.... 2.... 1......

    I am sure this has been hammered more than a century old anvil but when I ask I get discrepant views, does anyone know the official setting...? also what is the trick with pressing the brake pedal as you rev up the engine (I herd of this but don't know the specifics)

    Both tail light are mostly out but some times they come on.

    So.... I have both of my tail lights that do not come on, they have LED bulbs, the other lights (turn and stop) have standard bulbs they work just fine. So I turn on the lights in my parking lot and nothing, some times I have gotten out of the truck at a red light and both of my lights were on...

    The Humvee takes off on its own like if someone flipped the "After Burner" switch.

    The problem is that going at a steady speed, say…. 30 mph without changing the pressure applied on the gas pedal, all of a sudden the truck (1151) behaves like if I floored the pedal, it even downshifts on it’s own and takes off, and if I keep the same pressure on the pedal, it reaches about 50...

    Am I tachometer ready...? (Like Plug&Play)

    Eliminating 1 LB of rotating mass = 8.4 LBS of static mass. Let's upgrade TIRES

    Think about this... the stock tires on a Humvee are about 180 lbs, if you upgrade to an alloy rim and a lighter tire (not run flat) you can bring that weight down to where you shave about 300 lbs of rotating mas on your truck, now... multiply that X 8.4 that is the equivalent of about 2,500 lbs...

    Anderson connector attached to heavy gauge wires passenger side seat...???

    I found what looks to be a "Gray" Anderson (120 or 175 A) connector tucked under the front passenger seat (but accessible only from rear passenger seat) so I measured if there was any voltage across the pins and I measured 24.15VDC, (no switches on) then I measured the battery voltage...

    M1151 A1 funky behavior at the traffic light

    I am new at this so I'll try to explain the best I can (hopefully clearly enough): Sometimes at the traffic light or EVEN IN REVERSE I feel the truck is in a weird gear because the engine gets bugged down to the point of sometime staling, ( I ride in "H") if I let go of the brake I feel it...
