    Best way to check prime?

    curious, if I have a prime problem which it has to be, how do you get the fuel primed into the fuel injector pump? is there a primer like on the 939 series trucks somewhere?

    Best way to check prime?

    After replacing the glowplugs my 6.2 still is very hard starting cranking forever numerous times before it might start. I'm suspecting I'm losing prime after it sits overnight. Do I just crack an injector line? Thanks.

    Broken glow plug in cylinder, How scr345ed am I?

    Understood, but I didn't do anything besides remove the glow plug. It definitely fell into the cylinder. We drove for a good 45 minutes, so the tip either was expelled or it's melded into the piston or head :) Hopefully right out the exhaust is what I'm thinking. I could feel it and see it...

    Broken glow plug in cylinder, How scr345ed am I?

    Most definitely fell into the cylinder. I don't recommend this, but I read online to let it get mashed as it's not a hardened piece. I started it up again and i felt and saw the engine lag and smoke like the piece was caught in between the exhaust valve and seat for a few seconds then the...

    Broken glow plug in cylinder, How scr345ed am I?

    Finally got around to the last two glow plugs, the last one of course drivers side rear cylinder was the worst. I had 4 out of 8 swollen and thankfully I ordered the JJ&A glow plug tool, but it was still a nightmare being a contortionist. Anyway, I get the last one out and the tool and...

    Issues with SF-97

    Never heard of getting a refund from an auction bid on, unless the vehicle was taken back by the military but what do I know. You could default on GL but you paid a hefty penalty, Can't see that GP would just refund your money because you have to wait...... Better check the fine print.......

    Vin location on M931?

    Jus a guess here, but if you didn't buy the truck through gov planet, they're not going to do it.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Maybe a fuel pressure transducer for the the diagnostic port? Just a guess here, I just posted a thread on the 5 ton section, my M936A2 has a sensor on the top of the primer pump that isn't shown in the TM's. Found out thanks to a couple members what it was and what it does. (I have a fuel leak...

    What is this sensor on top of the transfer pump(primer)

    Thank you. I missed the post about it being for the diagnostic port. Took me a second time and actually READ the thread.....LOL Thanks a bunch guys, I'll just plug it off. Since I can't see I'll ever find the diagnostic stuff cheap.

    What is this sensor on top of the transfer pump(primer)

    Okay so what exactly does it do, is it necessary? Seems weird the -24P TM doesn't even show it, so I have no clue what the part# is. I did a quick online check for fuel pressure transducer 6CTA and came back with one place, but they don't have pictures of them only prices from 64 to...

    What is this sensor on top of the transfer pump(primer)

    Sensor itself, out of the top where the wires go in. I don't even know what this sensor is for, can't find it in the parts TM. It shows a plug there.

    What is this sensor on top of the transfer pump(primer)

    I'm losing prime, when I use the primer pump I'm getting fuel and air bubbles coming out of the top of this sensor and of course when I finally get the truck started. I looked in the Parts TM, it shows a plug instead of this electrical device. Anyone know what it does and what the part number...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Put 3 new glow plugs in, 2 others I tried to replace are swollen, didn't bother with the other 3. Pulled both my antennas down and took it for a nice ride. Starts immediately with at least 3 good glowplugs!

    Wipers not working

    Gotta really wonder WTF? Why have a switch there? To prevent the wipers from being turned on when the windshield is put down?

    How hot should glow plugs get, and a theorectical ether system?

    Thanks Doghead, I was just supposing. I have new glow plugs and I think the system is working as the wait light was coming on for about 5-7 seconds. My batteries are low again, I recovered the hawkers that were in it, but left it sitting for about a week and they're much weaker now.

    How hot should glow plugs get, and a theorectical ether system?

    Wondering how hot the glow plugs should get. I decided to check to see if I was getting juice to a random glow plug wire, so I took a wire off one of the existing glow plugs that I believe are all bad. I connected that wire to a new glow plug and held the threads to ground then had my wife turn...

    Ether bottle
