    Air Flow CFM?

    General I would love to see a photograph of your rig. Do you, have you, will you share?

    Air Flow CFM?

    Not your question: As we refurbish our cab and chassis for a habitat we fail to see the reasoning for relocating the ABS, AoH reservoir, AoH controller and hand pump, ether bottle and controller, and tire crane with spare to gain about 8" of space. Moving all that is a lot of work and design...

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    Success: added a new injection sensor and she fired right up. A little rough at first, not holding as close to desired injector pressures as I thought she should in the step test. Though after a warming her up and checking all the fluids and spots for leaks took her on a nice 30 mile loop with...

    M1088 camper conversion

    ummm. The box under the M-43 label behind the cab is the ABS controller, the M-43 mounts atop that steel mount, not below it. The chemical equipment is all removed before exiting military service—

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    New fuel line from tank, new primer/fuel separator, new line to lift pump, old line to primary, fuel at tee after primary. You can hear fuel return to tank when pumping a hand primer. Primer stays hard until after cranking, still firm, just not hard. Maybe the pressure valve at the rear of...

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    So, "...injectors are not fired until..." pressure is sufficient. I wonder if we just replaced a pump that needed a new sensor—

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    Good question. I don't know, the reman came with a new actuator, the only thing in the fuel system not replaced is sensor and injectors. @GeneralDisorder likely does; the pressure is controlled by the ECM—

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    Failure: Reman HEU installedI, CAT ET still reading less than 290# at crank. No start. Wondering if I should have replaced sensor, too? Batteries weak, charging them overnight while looking for next steps—

    LMTV cabin fan not working

    Right. You have to pull the knobs. The three are screwed on to the pull rods. You may need a pair of pliers to hold the rods from turning. The fan control just pulls off and slides back on—

    And a new solenoid. Also, keep the gear, washer bolt; and small hex bolt on the side off the core?

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    We just pulled our HEUI pump yesterday and I had to pull the fuel pump cover to get her out in two pieces. I just noticed today that your photos show the same cover off of your removed HEUI pump. Did you 'have' to remove that cover on the way out and what about on way back in?

    LMTV cabin fan not working

    The bolts that hold the cabin heater in place are accessed from outside. Remove the grill and you'll see them above the radiator on the cabin floor. To remove the cabin heater you have to dismount the parking brake manifold and knobs, and disconnect the water lines, too. Power runs from the...

    HEUI Troubleshooting - Injection Pressure Desired and Actual Mismatch

    We just pulled our HUEI pump today. What a tetris game to get it out of that space. I finally pulled the cover from the fuel pump where the fuel lines attach and took her out in pieces. I see you removed more of the wiring than I did. Like separating the block connection to the injectors and...

    2003 M1083A1 Does C7 replace 3126?

    I have been wondering how a 7JZ to another 7JZ could be a 3126 to a C7. Putting his serial numbers 7JZ00594 and 7JZ06815 in CAT SIS finds a 3126, not a C7—

    M1083A1 Wire Numbers for Location/

    There are PDF's of FMTV TM's in the Technical Manuals forum. I recall submitting Schematics for FMTVA1 for certain serial numbers. Perhaps that will help; I zoom in to enable reading and following routes. You likely will find other helpful TM's and parts lists there, too—

    M1083A1 Wire Numbers for Location/

    229A, 229B, and 3000 appear near the EMI filter. 229A & B going to the ECM (P188-67 & P188-65), 3000 looks like it is related to the warm up and exhaust brake switch through L11 (engine exhaust brake solenoid)—
