From looking at the service manual, I see there are three main toolkits that seem to be referenced 57K0266, 57K0267 and 57K0268. It's unclear to me what the difference is though. The service manual seems to make it sound like 266, 267 and 268 contain different tools, but the ebay lists seem to...
I finally replaced the not-working oil pressure gauge with a new one. And I'm now getting a reading.
Cold idle, between 30-60.
Warm idle, 30
0-30 MPH - 30-60
50 MPH - 100-120
55-60 MPH - over 120
The numbers at 50 and above seem high to me, but I have no frame of reference for this engine...
I noticed the other day that the turnlock fasteners were not holding the engine cover in place. I'm not sure why this would be, anyone more familiar with how it should be holding?
(These are the top two fasteners on the engine cover, they look like the same fasteners used to hold the rear seat...
The hose from the Cadillac valve fitting to the fitting on the fan cowl needs to be replaced. But I don't see anywhere that specifies any type or size. Does anyone happen to know what type of hose I should get? (I assume it's a fairly standard automotive part I can just go to O'Reilly and...
My rear brakes are pretty much shot, almost no pad left and I think the rear calipers are sticking (I can hear them catch when I reverse). I've been looking and I see different calipers on different sites, as well as different pads.. some say 10k, 12k, etc..
I've got a 1988 M998, never been...
I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a tire shop somewhere south of the MN river down to the Faribault or over toward Mankato that can handle the 2 piece HMMWV wheels. I get a nasty 'bounce' starting at about 53 MPH, and the normal shops I'd go to don't want to touch the two piece rims.
I was working through some faults on my vehicle and opened up the cab side engine cover. Giving me a great look at the engine in the process. I noticed the engine valley is full of standing water. (we just had a lot of rain here). I was wondering is this normal? Is there a blocked drain...
I've been starting to go over my new, to me, M998. One thing I've noticed, a lot of the boots around the electrical connectors are cracked. (The wires and the pin and socks seem to be just fine, it's only the boots.)
Can the boot be replaced without having to remove the pin from wiring? Is...
I'm new to Military Vehicles, but I've always wanted a Humvee since I first saw them in the 90's. (My ex was in the Army Reserves, she drove a regular M998 and Ambulance model.)
Finally got a chance to buy a titled, street legal one and jumped on it. Hopefully with her help, the motor pool...
