    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I was wondering what was going on, because my '86 also had both discharge hoses, suction hose and reservoir bottle, but my motor had no pump and the wiring harness had the plug, strange. I'm definitely happy to have a pump now. Not so bad on the nut, there was enough play on the linkage to pull...

    Cucv m1009 won't start....Electrical?

    Hi SgtHaas, I would start by having your batteries load tested, many auto parts stores do it at no cost.

    No Start After Fuel Filter Replacement

    Page 187 in the TM9-2320-289-20 gives instructions on bleeding the fuel system (10 steps), similar to what Timber is describing, with additions like: taking the fuel cap off, using the bleeder valve on filter to ensure fuel flow, letting the starter rest during cranks, etc.

    I am satisfied with the amount of heat coming out, I don't think I will need to disassemble to add foam. Might be a good idea anyway, but it's definitely working well as is.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Hmmm, there was none in the box. I re used the foam that seals the two ports to the firewall and I was/am under the impression from reading on this thread that the Spectra Premium heater core 94553 did not require the extra foam around the sides due to the filler panels on the side, please view...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Greetings, I replaced the original heater core with a Spectra Premium from the local auto parts zone. The original is going to storage, I would like to get it fixed, but this was quick and painless. Note the bent bolt on the housing above the heater core, it bent that way when I was un...

    How to transport sand sheets

    Maybe not, if your traktionmat is thick enough and the hinge is solid enough and welded underneath, I think, the sides should keep it from folding. Like this folding mobile bridge: Another variant to ODFever's idea, maybe like this external spare tire mount...

    Should be tooting your horn :p, I think you are referring to jpg's M1010, mine was fixed in the same manner, thanks WH. Headlight wire harness upgrade does take a load of though.

    There certainly are some sharp tacks on here. Gotcha Another Ahab, although thanks to you and gottaluvit for the pleasant detour. It's not much, but here are a couple pictures showing new turn signal lens and break light lenses.

    Issue starting, I think it may have to do with glow plugs.

    TM9-2320-289-20. Chapter 2 is troubleshooting. Section 2-64. Glow Plug System. YMMV. Best of luck.

    I made a battery tray and tie downs in order to relocate both batteries to the existing front tray, also gave maintenance to my batteries... Yep, I'm running different battery sizes 24 and 24f. Not ideal, but its what I had a the moment and they are still cranking. Not fond of wing nuts for...

    Nebulous, M1009

    Not sure why you're 33's rub. Mine have plenty of clearance... Sure you don't want to recheck the alignment of your body parts before you set the trimmer loose? Your monkey, spank as you wish.
