    M925A2 Cold Start Test and Result, -11F (Michigan 1/6/14), Cummins 8.3L

    not a good idea. That's why the system uses a metered dose, so you don't ruin anything. on glo plug engines. HMMWVs even if your glowplugs are shot you never use either without taking chances.

    Anyone know exactly where the gunners platform is positioned?

    THANK YOU! Got them, easy enough to figure out where to mount this thing. Just do I have the will to start drilling holes.....Or maybe the flexibility under the hmmwv. :)

    New to Me M998

    I got mine at Eriks, comes as a kit. Make sure you follow the directions completely, that come with it, Including testing your glowplugs before installation. Make sure you remove the neg. terminal from your battery before installation.

    Anyone know exactly where the gunners platform is positioned?

    Thanks Juanprado! That will help, Also answers why there's a little lip on the mounting brackets that sticks out. I'll contact TedG. Guess I'll have to remove the wooden cover on mine to put the gunners platform in. or make notches for the lips.
