    Highway Cruising Speed

    I used to run my M998 (the Detroit) at 70 because I wanted it to blow up so I could modify it, it never did so I put a 6 speed and a turbo 6.5L in it anyway. I now cruise comfortably at 75-80 @ 2200/2250 RPM in the DuraVee, Texas is too big for 55 :LOL:

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    TEXAS Those are the state flowers in the foreground, the Texas Bluebonnet. EDIT, of course I am biased but I think the Texas Bluebonnet is the prettiest flower in the world, much more complex than they first appear.;)

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I don't think it is necessary or correct to hound people, the owner of this forum gives us the choice, it could simply be mandatory and of course would be worth it.

    Because of the closed in nature of the battery box I am not comfortable with conventional batteries due to the possibility of hydrogen accumulation.

    Oil pump

    As RWH said it is quite normal, replacing an oil pump that is not defective is not going to change that.

    I think what he meant was a thermal fan clutch like most civy vehicles use, the original was hydraulic

    Here is a link to the TMs you will need, the first 7 on the left side applies to your truck. It is highly advised to read the -10 operator manual, it is long and tedious but can save you BIG bucks in the long run. https://www.nsnlookup.com/equipment-intelligence/land/hmmwv

    You are not the only one in Liberty Hill that has a HMMWV, there is another member on here. I lived in Liberty Hill in the late 60s, early 70s, we had a crank telephone system and was on a party line with several other folks. The intersection of 29 and 183 was a 4 way stop sign and we had one...

    Before doing anything go and price a replacement regulator, you will get very conservative very fast. EDIT https://www.hummerpartsguy.com/REGULATOR-ENGINE-GENERATOR-100-200-AMP-REMAN-NIEHOFF_p_15998.html

    IMHO that is a very bad idea, the original intention of the 14V tap (what it is called on the reg) was to balance the additional load on the low side battery caused by the transmission computer, it was never intended to run additional loads, you could use it to power a modest radio but nothing...

    How to you plan on charging the two batteries in parallel?? you cannot just connect them in parallel with the low side Hawker

    If you are going to run a large 12V load you will need an inverter, do not unbalance your system with two batteries running in parallel in series with the other 12V battery which is what I think you are talking about, the 12V (14V tap) on that regulator should not be used for large 12V loads, as...

    4L80E Transmission controller upgrade. What’s this?

    It is an EMI filter, clearly on the schematics, yes I would leave it in place

    Welcome to the SS forums!!! The reason you got the 400A alt cheap is because just about everyone that has one wants to git rid of it and for good reason, they are hard to keep mounted because they are SO heavy, they make working on the truck even harder and they have a bad habit of destroying...

    swapping out turn signal control switch didn't fix my blinker issue..

    I would suspect the flasher unit, have you changed any bulbs? Edit, the original bulbs have two (redundant) filaments, it is conceivable that one of the redundant filaments could burn out and cause a flasher unit that was right on the edge of working to quit, but the bulbs still light.
