    M1008 or M1009?

    It depends on what you want to do. If you're going to off-road and lift it and put on bigger tires then go for m1008. If you're going to keep it stock then m1009 is fine. Fuel economy: my M1008 with 37" tires and hummer beadlocks I get 11-12 city, 17-20 hwy depending on how hilly it is and how...

    Just so every knows that friday evening I will be making burgers (y) and hotdogs(~30) for a select number of attendees, X which will be determined by the space left in my cooler after I fill it with precious survival fluids.

    Nebulous, M1009

    Do the doghead relay mod. replace all fluids, and filters. Switch Glow plugs to 12V. The relay is 10-15$ and takes 30min tops to do, it should be one of the first things you do to your vehicle. ETA: I wouldn't go bigger than 33" tires on the stock axles.

    Possible M1009 Daily Driver

    I disagree on that one. I personally use 2-stroke about 1oz/gal of fuel. I'm sure many here will agree on this.

    Best Glow Plug Removal Tool?

    If you want to you can preemptively pull the fuel pressure sensor and fill in the hole with JB weld. The sensor is for the diagnostic system which no one uses any ways. The fuel filter base tends to leak from there eventually.

    Best Glow Plug Removal Tool?

    This stay away from the swellmans. Also look into doing the resistor bypass for the glow plugs (I know rus doesn't like to do this, but look into it for your self). Don't forget to replace all of the fluids and filters (no tranny flush, just drop pan replace filter and fluid).

    Tiny Tach is in!

    I need to check but I'm pretty sure I just plugged it into an "IGN" slot in the fuse block. I haven't had any trouble so far.

    Leaking NP 208 from Shifter.

    This is where the leak appears to be coming from. Looks like the seal around that needs to be replaced from the inside?
