    CUCV more questions than answers...

    I would replace the harmonic balancer. Especially if it’s original. The rubber on mine was hard and cracked and starting to separate from the Steel. Not far away from complete failure. It’s no secret that more than a few 6.2L diesels have broken crankshafts directly related to old and worn...

    I have too Many CUCV's and Parts

    Put it in the vehicles for sale classifieds. Someone will buy it if it’s priced right. I hope it gets saved. Absolutely Hate seeing a CUCV parted out and scrapped

    Questions, issues with my CUCV

    Agree with everything the guys have already mentioned. The CUCV stickies will have the belt sizes. Replace them all at same time. Not just two. If you haven’t already, replace every single rubber fuel/vacuum line. Including the 2” piece on the transmission vacuum modulator. The rubber...

    Size of Generator Circuit breaker?

    The circuit breaker should have an Amp number marked on it somewhere. But being it’s that old, who knows.

    Hard starting after warmed up

    Fully charge each battery separately, then do a load test. If they check out ok, you have a dying starter.

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

    Smoking on start up (electrical)

    New starter solenoid should fix the issue. Its still trying to crank because it’s welded itself internally. Cheap fix.
