    6 digit odometer

    OK, Why do some CUCVs have 6 digit odometers and some only 5? I've seen one M1009 and my own M1028A1 with 6 digit odometers, most seem to have the usual 5 digit (plus 10ths) odometer. Any reason? Replaced? thanks

    Fuel gauge won't work!

    RE: Fuel gauge won I found the volt meter relay, its up under the dash taped to the wiring harness, its a bosch 5 prong unit and mine was all corroded. You have to take the instrument panel out to get to it though.

    VIN differences between M1008 and M1028?

    I have a true M1028A1 with a "G" where the "H" is. The G makes mine a 1986, the H makes it a 1987, nothing to do with being an M1028 or M1008. The F after the H means it was made in Flint.

    Anyone else order from gmpartsdirect? Ordered parts 6/6, still has order status "in process". I see no way of contacting them about order, or is there? BTW, they used to be Flow Chevrolet. thanks

    Just bought a M1028 and having one starting problem

    Had problems with my M1028a1 also, changed the glow plug card (had put in a bad one from a junk yard but didn't know it was bad) and the relay. Now it works fine. Reading and REreading the TMs helps too. good luck.
