    Replacement Fast/High Idle Solenoid?

    I was looking for a new one for a spare. I just went to all three sites posted to purchase with no Joy. I guess I will have to wait in till GP or Ebay sells a large lot of electrical supplies again.

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

    I think they must be made that way because mine does the same thing. Just lay back and drive it around like your the Fonz from Happy Days

    Multiple spare tires

    I can't remember the last time I had a flat, maybe 30 years ago. But the first time I would leave the spare out of the truck will be the next time I get a flat.

    Cold Weather and CUCV's

    What do you folks recommend to keep the engine of my 6.2 warm during the coming cold days? I think its simple, just park it in a heated garage

    Power loss on hills and above 35 MPH

    Fuel line restriction before filter, that may be the cause of the negative pressure. Most likely a plugged fuel tank sock

    Engine Noise

    You would like that switch working all the time, better for the motor.

    Engine Noise

    M1008 acquisition and restore

    I like the ghost flames on the passenger side. Did PO hop up the old 6.2?

    How I removed Genset from wooden skid without hoist.

    You could just leave skid under till it rots. No?

    1986 CUCV M1009 Decade after being wrecked.

    Just passed by your LZ last Friday: picked up a pristine Pioneer Tool Trailer through the Federal Surplus program at Mechanicsburg. So when you say having three of something always beats a pair; Look at my signature, I can say I'm closer to a full house. Easter Find is doing fine, we will both...

    84 CUCV overcharging

    The 30.8 volts is just a touch high but I think you can run it that way with no resulting damage. The Tms have the min-max per alternators. Ideally I like it when they run around 29 volts with no load.

    CUCV more questions than answers...

    Okay so my next question is less asthetic and more technical. But why in the world would a person do this to a gas tank? That looks like wood shims and spray foam to keep the steel tank protector from making an annoying rattle at idle. You may want to remove it so it doesn't promote rust.
