Think I have another angle of that truck:

Looks like you got it into a garage - does it start now? It does occur to me from some of hhose pitures that your exhaust pipes are under snow level. That could have had the same effect as a potato shoved in there. Your description has me thinking "air flow" because you've ruled out fuel flow...

Intake plugged up? I did see that a lot of the snow out there was powder - could have an air filter housing full of snow and bouncing ice balls...

I have no idea what their house looks like, but yup, I did see houses out there :beer: By the way, took two trips and three days on the second trip to catch a clear day for these pictures... :cookoo: The solenoid would vent the controlled air circuit to atmosphere - as far as the pressure...

PCB's costs money add complexity, mostly prevent hooking up batteries backwards. Sounds like normal wear and tear, if your batteries were low when started. That said, a 12/24V split system has its own quirks that would benefit from a diode protecting the 12V loads from reverse polarity voltage...

And there was much rejoicing! :beer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yciX2meIkXI Yaaaaayyyyyyy......

New starter, new batteries, are your alternators outputting the right voltage to charge fully and are you getting your batteries up to >80% before shutting down? Short errands will keep batteries undercharged... I've also seen batteries fail inside of the first year of ownership. Might want...

I hate to repeat what other say constantly on the forums, but download the Technical manual for the CUCV - there is a wiring diagram in there that shows all of the fusible links (there are more than what you listed).

Coating that reacts when exposed to petroleum by expanding. You spray the outside (where petroleum isn't supposed to be) - when someone shoots the tank, the bullet spreads the coating which them collapses back into a smaller hole then the fuel leaks onto the reactive surface inside the hole and...

I'm on the left coast, sorry. They aren't too bad to rebuild yourself if you have tools, time, and patience...

Sounds like it's working. If it was bad it would show either OL both ways or something less than 1MΩ/2V both ways. Semiconductors fail either open or shorted. The sound (continuity)/Diode test mode will put a current limited power across the diode you are testing. The number which is...

What kind of batteries do you have? I've seen this type of failure with Optimas - usually when I'm out of cell range on a lightly/never travelled road... After you check your batteries, check your fusible links. A starter with a dead short or seized motor will burn those up and show zero power.

Probably better off with a larger 24V alternator and a Vanner charging a separate 12V battery for the 12V only loads. 2cents

The above two posters have it - there are a few plastic parts right where the rotation is put into the speedometer cable, they are a wear item and do fail.

Due to the higher likelihood of an off-road misadventure up there, I'd recommend starting with a ROPS/ABS high-top if you can get one. You will likely never get the cab fully airtight (especially with driving winds or what highway speeds the truck can manage) so you're going to be fighting that...

These'll make you feel at home then :beer:, took them my last trip there: Spent my early childhood on Oahu due to my dad's Naval service - it's all pidgin to me...

Welcome from California :beer:

Not just MERDEC camo'd vehicles, this was a safety thing in North America started back at the end of the '60's (too many rear-end accidents) - it was up to the individual unit commanders if they wanted to apply it to their pool's vehicles. They can be found in and out of circulation...

When are we gonna see a picture with those mounted 3M vehicle delineators I sent you? :mrgreen:

You're forgetting how persistent Imperial is - still call it a Pint in the UK when you want a beer... Not a half liter. Metric is used constantly in Engineering even here in the USA - decimal math is a lot easier than fractions. Just got my M1009 back from a cooling system refresh, chasing a...
