    CUCV-II, South Florida Rebuild

    When I bought the truck the only code we got was "turboboost solenoid", which I changed. I have not had the codes checked since then, I'll have them checked later this week. I googled the PMD, usdiesel.com has the updated one. The truck has 126,000 miles on it. No idea what was done to it while...

    CUCV-II, South Florida Rebuild

    I have been having a similar issue with the K3500 pick-up. Stalls from time to time during acceleration. When it does happen, it either clears up when I let off on the gas or the engine quits. After re-start, it's fine. Plan on changing the fuel filter first.

    Tailgate window leak

    The upper window seal from LMC is a pretty good fit. I have read in other threads here that GM still makes the inner and outer window seals. I have the LMC seals and had to trim the outer so it wouldn't ride up with the window all the way up.

    M1009 instrument cluster flexible ribbon circuit board

    Eastern surplus might have them. Unless it's falling apart, it can be cleaned up and reused Jay. I have done it to both of the Oh-9's I have owned. There is a thread about the instrument cluster maintenance 'round here somewhere. Check this one.... In post #7 is a link to yet another instrument...

    Fuel gauge problem

    Try the ground wire. Mine did the same thing. It might be broken and or dirty/crusty/rusty. You should be able to get to it without removing the tank.

    Which 900 series do you like best?

    Guess I got bit by the 900 series bug over in Iraq. We had one...not sure what model it was. I am very interested....I'm thinking I'd be ready to buy this fall. We'll see..... Here is a shot of the 5 ton we had. Found a copy of MV magazine that had a good article about the 900 series trucks...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    According to the measurements of the tank, it's only an inch taller than the 27 gal tank that had been installed. Prior to removal of the old tank, it looked like we had at least 3 inches of space between the old tank and skid plate. " Should " fit....we'll find out later today. I'll post pics...

    Installed new 31 gal fuel tank and sending unit. After a 15 sec bleed, she cranked right up and stayed running. It's going to be weird having a fuel gauge that works.[thumbzup]
