    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    That probably had nothing to do with the filter. I have been twisting wrenches for over 50 years both as an occupation and a hobby and have never heard this. At least I would someone try to explain how a clean filter can cause a failure.

    Curious do those ever get answered?

    PETLAS Has anyone tried these tires?

    With shipping they would be about $100 less than the Petlas for 5 tires, so pretty much a wash. Still curious if anyone had tried these.

    PETLAS Has anyone tried these tires?

    I sent in for a shipping quote so the actual price can be compared, although I would expect it to be less than the $90 difference in price. Of course the Goodyears could be made in China or any other of a host of third world countries.

    Need hood reg. number

    If you are looking for the registration number it is on the data plate NG4LWL If you are looking for the unit markings you will have to discover that by trying to go down through the paint layers, no way to look it up.

    Pam (wife, 45 years) o_O used to work as an operator at a VCM chemical plant, that is what they called it, so just like "zippy ties" it is now part of our vernacular :ROFLMAO:

    M1123 transmission

    It is possible whomever removed the light cut the wires, maybe even flush where they came out of the harness. At this point I would be looking for where the individual TPS and ESS harnesses and the brake switch wires come out of the larger harness for cut wires.

    M1123 transmission

    Follow the wires from the TPS, (throttle position sensor) on the right side of the injection pump, it should lead you to where it goes into a larger harness, that is where the wires for the MIL lamp should be. I have no idea about what you are seeing, might be clutch material might be nothing...

    Cadillac valve

    Well they all do that, if you rev the motor when the fan is engaged it is usually pretty obvious by the noise it makes. Heck hook it up and see what happens :) o_O

    Cadillac valve

    Looks like it is blocked, your fan should be running 24/7, maybe a mongo leak between the fan shroud and the clutch?

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    Yep, my M151 and M422A1 had the numbers on the hood, can't remember how the 404s were marked,, I just never went the former MV route cuz I drive the crud out of every MV I have, I only drive a civy vehicle if I have to. I think you are right as that is what the law ( at least the form) says...

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    If the whole form had been attached OR I had taken the time to look I would not have rambled on so, I see where it is listed :ROFLMAO: They shot themselves in the foot when they stated "in a design and location, which conforms to the vehicle's official military design and markings." Taken...

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    Unless when you get the MV (EDIT, registration not plates) you list what the ID will be, I have never done the MV registration thing, did not think about that o_O

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    The only problem I see is the registration number would be no use to LE or the state in case your vehicle was involved in an incident where someone copied the number or there was video and that is the number one reason we have licence plates , your quote does say serial number. Not saying you...

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    I of course could be wrong, and unfortunately if you ask 5 different "officials" you will likely get 5 different answers :ROFLMAO:

    Texas FMV bumper stencil markings

    This is what the registration number should look like, Although I would expect to be legal you would need to use the number on your title which is normally the actual 6 digit serial number so it can be traced by LE

    4 man AC conversion

    Just a few thoughts. Any time you evacuate a system you should replace the receiver/dryer, when in use the descant gets coated with oil and it would take a very long time under vacuum to get all the moisture out of the receiver/dryer, it is very cheap insurance. Target vacuum should be 500...
