    In need of some technical assistance , m1028

    I have to agree with snowtrack nome about fuel filter. After changing I always pour out the fuel in filter into a glass jar and look at closely after settlement. Helps to see if it is water, dirt, rubber hose, or the worst, RUST. As for the dim light, wire chaffing, or sensors would be my...

    Cracked Bolthole on Block for Starter

    Pilot bearing issue? Maybe sticking out? I wasn't aware of different crank flange thickness. I agree with cucvrus, do not make it complicated. If the starter is shimmed an 1/8 inch, wow that is a lot, it is trial and error at this point. Try it and be ready to pull cable, turn off key. Pull...

    Issues with SF-97

    900743 I wonder if Iron Planet could just print up the necessary documents for the supplier of the forms? With that kind of authorization the sales of equipment would have the paperwork at time of sale. I am sure that the Deep State has a firm grip on the documents.

    Rewiring the diamond - a different approach to feeding the 12v junction block

    Chaffing of wiring is one fire hazard that is not wanted or needed. Also clean connection of all circuits prevents overheating of wires. Prevention now beats problems later when away from home base. Hoses and their connections also need protection from chaffing and vibration, the elements also...

    Issues with SF-97

    Thanks PHasty for the information. I for one are glad that there is an entity that represents? the Fed. and the purchaser in selling and buying surplus hardware. Not knowing when is hard because of the apprehension to start motoring in "my" MV. Get caught driving without tags is bad enough, but...

    Issues with SF-97

    I hope that The Great State of Missouri is a little more sympathetic. What really BURNS my arse is that you pay an extra 50.00 bucks for a document, and as a buyer you sign on and meet your obligation. Yet they state the time that they are going to meet and act as in good faith they will meet...

    I am still waiting on my SF97. Cant wait to get tags. Then have to decide how to tag? How about some advice on best tags for CUCV in Missouri? Will historic tags work? Thanks MV Owners

    new owner, saying hello

    Fortunately the flat will run forever with proper or improper maintenance. Find a new set of points, rotor, and carb kit while they are still reasonable priced. Todays gasoline is like poison to these engines, either find real gasoline without alcohol or start an additive regimen. Somebody will...

    Issues with SF-97

    Well I have been waiting since the beginning of July. I am indifferent about it except that you have to meet their requirement for payment yet they do not meet their own obligation when the company states their own response time. I hope that the DMV is sympathetic when the time comes for the...

Great crew here and a LOT of helpful information that otherwise you could spend days looking for an answer on several other web sites about a problem...

    new owner, saying hello

    Welcome and a very nice Truck. One of the good things about the Dodges, there is plenty of room to put on larger tires. How much clearance on the front bumper when turning? Now add some Horsepower!

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Outstanding! I am glad it was so simple yet a pain in the ass. Now you have piece of mind knowing that it is fixed properly. On the other hand now you have to wonder what else the prior owner "has fixed". I forgot to ask if there was a magnet in pan. Keep them doggies moving....

    Going down on tire size on a M932A2

    Welcome Drcracer, rolling at 13.5 I do see what you are trying to do. Are you locked in with using a fifth wheel? Is it possible to run a rear hitch with your weight not being an issue? Just looking at options, fabricating.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Volvo, sounds like it might be sucking air somewhere. Might be time to replace rubber hose in bent areas. I have replaced most problem areas with either fittings, steel or copper tube. You have to have some hose but you can reduce some of the problems. I start having warning signs and I put on...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    gottaluvit, Have you ever tried to align your self? Very easy, surely you have a string or measuring device. Usually by just counting the turns off you can replace in return. Anyway I am sure it will steer better.
