    M1009 Glow Plug Sensor

    have your buddy turn the ignition to run while you watch the FIS to see if it snaps in.. if not give it a push and see if it holds in (engine cold not running). If it does it is ok but just lazy. I always preset mine by holding the go pedal down a ways before I crank taking the load off the...

    My M1009 & Pioneer Trailer

    Be careful as that trailer is a handful without brakes on a M1009, especially with a combat load. Drop a surge brake axle with cucv tires under it and you will be in Narragansett (similar to Schaefer) City.

    XM-810

    As you check the part numbers in your 34-p you will find that the Cummins and the Mack A1 use an overdrive tranny and the M/F 5 tons use a direct drive. The fit is the same and the function is the same for non-truckers. We have a 5 ton gasser near me with the overdrive tranny, and of course...
