    1987 M998 Fuel Pump Help

    Did the red fluid come out of the vent side or diesel side of the pump? You should check the transfer case first to see if it is over full, you should also check the diffs and hubs, it does sound like you are pumping trans fluid into the vent system, via an over full transfer case.

    FLU419 electrical issues

    I almost always test circuits with everything connected, you can get "good" voltage on a circuit when disconnected from the load for it to simply go away when the load is connected. If all you are trying to trouble shoot is a single circuit from the IGN. switch to the starter with only one...

    Duramax Conversion

    How are you coming with this conversion? I was wondering if you were able to make the late model fuel tank work, I bought one but ended up using the early tank for clearance issues.

    M1097 A2 Whining noise coming from the

    That is definitely a hydraulic pump noise, could be the trans but most likely the steering pump, some are just noisier than others, if it were the Cadillac valve the noise would drastically change as the fan turned on and off.

    M1097 A2 Whining noise coming from the

    Sounds pretty normal to me for a truck with the remote PS reservoir, maybe a little more pronounced than usual, but does not sound like a "present danger" sound.

    testing starter solenoid

    What are you going to test? the solenoid will not do anything without the plunger being installed so it can slam into the back of the solenoid and close the starter contacts. Also if it is like most Delco solenoids the coil in the solenoid grounds through the terminal going into the starter, one...

    HMMWV starts then stalls

    One other thing that you did not cover, have you made sure the return line is not plugged, if the IP wires being switched does not pan out try running a line from the return fitting on the IP into a bucket and then give it a try.

    Hood rub blocks on fender

    The nuts are inside the cab, not all that hard to get to, I change them all the time by myself and I am really old. EDIT, without the doors

    Reliable injection pump rebuild services

    According to RWH who likely changes more IPs than anyone else said he would only go to HPG or MAC motors for ether a rebuilt or new IP. These are not the cheapest options but the labor to change the IP 2 or 3 times until it is right is massive, do it once and be done with it.

    Gear ratio

    You would have been wise to come here first, if you look down a few posts here to "injection pump reinstall" you would see that DCP is listed as an unreliable source for IPs do not cheap out as it WILL bite you in the ass. ditch those tires they are too old unless you do not plan on driving on...

    Gear ratio

    Welcome to the SS forums! Your truck has 2.73 gears, they are available in 2.56, 2.73 and 3.07 so yes you could switch to 2.56 gears but then you might not have enough power to push that box any faster. The oil pressure is somewhere from diddly to squat, if you get 10psi hot idle to 25-30 hot at...

    Help (RKI)- Fuel pump?

    Your thinking is correct, that "death rev" is a pretty sure sign of lack of fuel. You need to be careful pressurizing the tank, too much and you can blow off vent lines. It could be the lift pump. When was the last time the fuel filter was changed?

    Welcome to the SS forums! Do not limit yourself to the PA area, a good shop is worth the shipping fees, there are allot of shops but many have bad reputations.

    No-start update...

    Have you tried shorting S and T on the diag port? this bypasses the PCB, if it does not crank then it is the starter, batteries or wiring. S is wire #74 and T is 24V (battery) Make sure you are shorting CAPITAL S and T, there are also lower case S and T on that plug. There are connections both...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I picked up a shelter that still has the monster rack on the front so I can mount my MEP831A and some other stuff above the cab, it also matches the color of the future DuraVee II since the DuraVee I is getting a helmet top and will no longer be able to accommodate a shelter. I told Pam if I got...

    M1151 steering gear box rebuild kit

    Welcome to the SS forums, as RWH said you need to be more specific about what steering box you have as there is more than one.
