    SS diesel glow plugs

    RE: 12 vs 24? The controller reads the voltage going to the glow plugs. I am sure it uses this to time the run. If you just connected 12 to the sensing wire (orange wire) for the controller I am not sure the system would perform properly. I think this setup would render the system inoperable on...

    SS diesel glow plugs

    Direct answer: Get different ones. The M1009 uses a different connector. If you have to order new anyway get the right ones.

    Field Battry Test???

    Get a $20 carbon pile load tester from Harbor Freight. The battery still needs to be charged to check it. My new battery charger checks for shorted and dead cells when it charges. Bad batteries are caught by the charger. It also has a desulfate function. The load tester will check for week...

    Speedo Adapter

    The short adaptor inside that connects the angle adaptor to the transfer case is available from Memphis and I think it was about $8. Can you get it out of the part that screws into the tranfer case?

    M-718 or M-715 What is it ?

    You mentioned blue smoke out the tailpipe. Blue smoke is oil burning White smoke is coolant burning (leading head gasket or such into the combustion chamber) Black smoke is a rich condition.

    Blazers dead, need glow plug help

    There was no way that was leaving my hands after I saw it and figured out what it was. If you remember I gave it to my son to hold while I went to find the vendor. I was like this when I saw it. :drool:

    RE: Re: RE: M105 Tow ring flip and other questions. I use my hylift to hook mine up. It makes it a one person job everytime. If you don't have one get one.

    Winch install

    It is a gasser PTO and a Multi shaft. You can either take the short end off the driveshaft and put on the gasser end from your pto or you can buy the flange, key, and set screw to convert the PTO to be used with the Multi drive shaft as is. I got the flange and stuff from Memphis and I think it...

    Winch install

    Do a search on the topic. Kenny set out the procedure for checking the clearance for the PTO. Basically get a few gaskets. You also need to get the studs instead of the bolts used for the cover plate. What follows is what Kenny said in the post. These are his words not mine. PTO gaskets are...

    Fuel lines on the -715

    The rubber lines easily chafe and get holes. There are many points on the frame that would cause it to chafe and being flexable it will never stay where you want it. Only put rubber in at a place that has to flex. The fuel lines took 30 some odd years to rust out. If you are really worried about...

    Connecting Power Cable to RT-524 Radio

    Go ahead and rub it in Bjorn. The ring mount reenforcement in my cab prohibits any kind of installation like that. I got the fuel cub. I appreciate it. I think I will cut off the corrosion and tack on a washer. I just need to find the right one now. I will also treat it with rust inhibitor...

    M105 Tow ring flip and other questions.

    RE: Re: RE: M105 Tow ring flip and other questions. I towed my M103 with gensets home about 300 miles with the cucv. It was tough to get it moving but if you are just getting the trailer you should be alot lighter. I think the gens weighed about 2000 lbs.

    Blazers dead, need glow plug help

    I got one at the Clare Michigan show from one of the vendors for $45. Works great but can't find deals like this everyday. I was lucky enough to still have one in the newest one from GL.

    Blazers dead, need glow plug help

    Check in the -20. On page 2-62 there is a pin by pin check of glow plug items that you can check at the glow plug module connector. This will pinpoint exactly what is wrong with you. It gives the wire color and what value you should see. Then it gives you what is wrong. Also, the schematic for...

    SS diesel glow plugs

    I just checked with the INDUSA website. I got my plugs from them. The list a different number for the military humvee and the cucv. 6a843g070 for cucv 6a843g115 for the military humvee Both of them listed as 24 volt so the only difference may be the round instead of the spade connector. From...
