I'll second the above. This is a MUST DO. The relay is now made in China, and
I already went thru 2 of them. Luckily it didn't stick closed. Don't put this
off. The amount of damage that is done is really bad.

That looks good! I have a NOS heater so I am set on getting the adapter.
There is even a thermostat in the s-250 that works with the heater.
Thanks for the pic!

Thanks, that's the one I have. This one requires the 5gal gas can to be inverted.
The one I am looking for has a pickup tube going down in to the can just like the pickup on a vehicle tank, but without the pump. Pump is in the heater.
Thanks,
Bruce
Has anyone ever hooked up the heater in the s-250 to the 5gal can mounted on the bulkhead just to the left of the door?
The heater has its own fuel pump and there is a fitting on the bulkhead just below the 5gal can so that a hose goes from there to the 5 gal can.
My problem is that I cannot...
Thanks guys, This really helps alot. I just got a old prisim type coolant tester
so I can test the end result, but I hadn't thought about the issue with distilled water.

I should have specified that it was for my M1008, that's why I posted in the CUCV forum. I replaced the radiator about a month ago and bassed on some advice here I put some detergent in the water when I refilled. I now want to flush all of that out and then put water/antifreeze mix back in...
Can someone please point to the section in the TM's that discusses how to flush the complete cooling system.
So far all I have encountered is how to drain the radiator. I know from civi trucks that the thermostat will screw things up.
Any tips would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Bruce
Here is the company that sells all the connectors you ever want to buy for your mil vehicle:

They do have minimum quantity buys, but they are the real deal and very high quality. I am adding this here since the link in my previous post went away and
someone requested it.
She is a keeper! Don't ever let her get away! The truck sounds good too.
I have one of each, and I am not about to let either of them go!
Have fun with them!
