    M1009 towing M101A2 trailer

    I would be glad to trade my 101A2 with a new camo cover and paint for your 101A3. This way you don't need to swap the tires :sneaky:

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    Rick, I think you may be losing your "Clout", or maybe your "Reputation" at your truck dealership. They should have come to you first for some simple repair advise before they decided to do a "hack job". These young mechanics now-a-days know it all and don't need us olé-timers anymore.

    Dark Seas M1008 Project

    I think bad/stuck injectors are causing most if not all of your issues. You mentioned you installed new-remanufactured injectors in an earlier post and your assuming all is good. I bought some rebuilt injectors on ebay a few years back "trying to save some money" and found them to be worse than...

    Blown head gasket or something else?

    But, "before you pull the trigger", I would confirm that you have a cracked head/s or just need your head gaskets replaced first.

    Blown head gasket or something else?

    Blown head gasket or something else?

    Sounds like you have a cracked head. It shows up when hot and running, putting your cooling system under pressure "crack expands open". When it cools down it tightens back up and holds your coolant system under pressure. IMHO

    Wrong dash pad?

    May I suggest: If your just at the "beginning stages of your restoration" you may want to prioritize your repairs first. Run that ride of yours for awhile before you start dumping big dollars in to cosmetics such as the dash pad. There may be more urgent repairs needed that should be tended to...

    Wrong dash pad?

    That gray dash pad is not the original. The originals were a "burgundy/brown" color that matched the door panels and seats. The dash basil is the proper one but the PO must of converted to 12 volt . The non stock 12 volt meter in the dash tells all. Enjoy your restoration project.

    coolant light intermittently on: why?

    Same with me, just messing with the plug fixed mine

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Rick Re-glue those corners first. Add wide painter's tape around the decal. Spray WD-40 "directly on a scrubby pad or rag" then add in some elbow grease and your problem will be solved. Just saying . Or is it because you don't own any WD-40

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    A little squirt of WD-40 and some elbow grease will clean up that jacking decal like new.

    Tan paint for humvee

    Behr Marquee Exterior flat applied with roller and brush. Center 10 KW genset was painted on access door only. The right 15 kw genset was totally repainted with the Behr paint. Original desert tan was faded so there was not a perfect match but was close enough for my needs.
