    Yes.

    HMMWV Contact truck weld switch

    Actually it looks like you can remove the switch by simply unplugging the two connectors and just plug the connector from the TDM into the connector for the Cadillac valve.

    HMMWV Contact truck weld switch

    The way the switch is wired the switch is closed, this should give you normal fan operation, if you pull the handle out you should be able to switch it, unless it is stuck, the switch is a SPDT (single pole, double throw) so it can be wired on or off with the handle down.

    HMMWV Contact truck weld switch

    It looks like someone wired the switch to manually control the fan clutch, yes you can remove it but if it will enable (override) that automatic control some would think that is a plus.

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    Diesel is pretty stable so keeping it "fresh" is not an issue, most do use a fuel lubricant additive because the ultra low sulfur diesel does not lubricate the Stanadyne IP as well as it was originally designed for the diesel with sulfur. I use the Stanadyne "lubricity" additive because they...

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    In any case drive yours a while before trying to change things, it is possible you have the old style and it actually has an issue, if you have the new style when you fill the tank slowly with the run switch on you will see it advance about 1/4 tank at a time.

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    I have no idea, the reed switch type should be much more dependable, especially for vehicles that site for extended periods of time, the "variable resistor" tends to varnish over when sitting, or maybe the variable resistor type does not like kerosene based fuels (JP) There are companies that...

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    You have the more "modern" sending unit, I am not sure you can still get the old style as NOS. EDIT, except some universal crap I see out there.

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    It is possible you have the late style sending unit, it only has 4-5 possible readings, (not continuous like the resistor style sending unit) it is a magnet that floats up and down a tube closing reed switches so it will "jump" about a 1/4 tank at a time, normal for that kind of sending unit...

    Fuel gauge issue after changing fuel filter

    Pulling a vacuum on the filter would not affect the sending unit, if you don't have many miles on a truck that has been sitting awhile I would drive it some before condemning the sending unit, it could be quite normal for your truck, I have the new style fuel sending unit and it was on empty...

    turbo to NA

    The center mount turbo engine uses different heads than the NA, the NA intake will not bolt up, would be easier to just do a turbo install.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    He does a pretty good job of getting difficult to ship stuff to you in one piece, he shipped me a set of supplemental armor doors that came in without any more scratches than they already had! looks like Fastenal!!

    HMMVs coming from Hawaii

    And likely not able to put them on the road there, there was a bill ( S.B. 2849 ) but I am not sure if it passed and if it did it was only for former military vehicles 25 years old or older. It would be interesting to see if a service personnel could have one shipped on Uncle Sam's dollar, my...

    M998 AC install

    I installed one of the three circuits hoses today, the compressor discharge to condensers, I took that down the drivers side, one because the right side is going to be crowded as it is and I figure feeding the condensers on the left side and taking the output on the right side will tend to make...

    Help Identifying Bumper

    Looks like allot of iron to be hanging on the front of a HMMWV even if you could make it work.

    What Would You Do Here?

    Check all the acc mounting bolts especially the alt mounting bolts.

    EMP Proofing HMMWV

    My wife has been spewing the EMP crud for at least 25-30 years (used to listen to Art Bell and still is an AM junkie) It is hard to imagine how much time and money I have saved by ignoring her. IF and WHEN it ever happens I will deal with it the same way I deal with everything, one thing at a time.

    Help With Brush Guard Mounting

    That BG is for a HMMWV but it is a different style, actually a much more desirable one. Likely someone will be able to give you information on where you can get the mounts.
