Your truck is acting as designed. When cold the glow plugs cycle for a short period, that's why you get fluctuation in the meter, Anywhere in the green is fine but red or yellow? you may have problems.

I test them while their in the block with a simple 1 wire test light clipped to the positive battery post. Touch the test light probe on the terminal end of the glow plug and if it lights your good to go. If it doesn't than its burned out and not making any heat.

Maybe their breaking in a new tech and he keeps forgetting to check the solenoid.

For future thoughts, what could I expect to pay for the required brackets/mounts/bows for the troop cover? Everything has been removed from mine so I'll have to start from scratch. I used to do auto and boat upholstery so the top itself isn't a big deal. I thought you were buying the truck to...

Unless you plan on plowing commercially for 4 months a year like a lot of guys do up north here. I would put a smaller lighter cheaper plow on. Not knowing what part of Virginia your in, how often do you need a plow anyways?

Five of my old lines cracked on the pump end. The old diesel mechanic that worked on it said the rubber clamps were missing and the vibration over time tends to crack the ends by the nuts. He also said not to bend them much when installing as it will destroy the glass like coating inside the...

I wish I checked with you swiss 3 years ago for the injector line set. It took me three mouths and four venders before I found all eight to replace mine. Great price.

I agree, why inherit someone else's problems. Besides if he is parting out a truck with 20,000 miles on it there most be a lot wrong with it. The other thought would be to give him $500 for the whole truck for parts,

Thy are $355.00 a pair shipped on e-bay

Have you had any snow worth playing in lately? When it does does come, I would love to see some action video on how well your blower works. Been contemplating on picking up a FLU and retrofitting a blower for it like you did. The County I work for has fourteen 911 communication tower sites, and...

Make sure you fully charge and load test your batteries. Weak or bad batteries will cause a multitude of issues as your finding out now. Your relay may not be bad because you still had to jump it when testing, just saying test & check your batteries.

Great price if it turns out to be minor repairs. The guy I was trying to deal with was a owner to an auto repair shop and it made me leery when he said he would not install the starter unless I committed to buying the truck. I thought to myself, what is he trying to hide? Go figure. I guess ill...

How did Mike treat your wallet. I had one on the hook up hear that wasn't running and he wanted a running price "4k". The guy said its the starter and he has a new one for it but never bothered to install it. I told him I wouldn't buy a truck unless I heard it run; he wouldn't budge.

Its no longer a 1008; You may want to call that a 1007:5 or a 1007 & 1/2.

Been there once about a year ago, Nice older gentleman, small retail store stuffed to the gills with low value WW1 and later dated clothing, arm patches and such. Large property with little parking, a few large out buildings but I didn't feel welcome or weren't allowed to wander through his...

What are the LED plow lights retailing for? I'm waiting for the LED truck-lite headlight prices to fall some before I buy. I love how they look on your Mule.

I noticed my passenger side pulley is slightly out of alinement also. Tried to shim it with a washer but didn't help much. I put new belts on 5 years ago and they haven't giving me a bit of trouble nor are they wearing oddly. As far as the squealing, you have to have them real tight or try some...

Rick, you burned all your wood blocks!
