    Have someone cover the end of the exhaust while you crank.

    CUCV 1008 Will not start

    How cold? Is your fuel winterized? Are you getting fuel pressure at the filter? Bad ip? You need fuel air and heat for engines to work. You are missing one or more of these. Tons of help if you search.

    Siren on CUCV in FL

    I put a PA speaker with siren noises, using the buzzer instead of the horn gets people out of the way faster ;) . Cheap 20$ thing. I put mine under the hood Driver side fender. I'll post pics tomorrow if I remember to take them.

    Is this a good buy?

    I found it. It looks clean, but 9.5K$ seems like quite a lot unless its had a complete rebuild and has zero problems of any kind. Stock hummer beadlocks will need either spacers up front or the centers cut out and replaced.

    VRV and shift questions.

    20-25 in Hg right from vac pump. Adjust regulator (VRV; EGR if buying on rockauto) on IP to 8 in Hg. Pushing vrv towards firewall increases vacuum and gives earlier shifts. I put mine at 12 in Hg for earlier shifts (right before 20mph for 2nd and btwn 28-32mph for) 3rd

    fuel filter houseing

    you don't need the fuel pressure sensor. I had a leak from there and I just used jb weld putty to plug the hole behind the sensor.

    Humvee tires on the M1008

    I've done a 4" lift and then cut the fenders to fit the tires. I also added longer bump-stops up front. You'll need 16.5" wheels with a 3.5" backspacing to fit your truck and tires.
