    CUCV and Glow Plug issues

    OK, I have looked and read related posts trying to find my issue, This is the issue. 1. Glow plugs don't heat up, though maybe gp relay might be bad, hear the clunk of it when key is turned but it cycles on and off repeatedly. 2. I put a manual momentary switch on thinking maybe that would...

    Pitmaster T Explores - The MKT

    Man that thing looks awesome, I might have to give up buying CUCV's for a while and get one of those, Did it come with all the hardware, I'm sure most do not. And what's the going rate for those.

    I took back the Dex III yesterday and changed it out for NAPA 10w Hyd oil, which says on the bucket that is compatible for Allison C-4, Gonging to change both filters and see how it works. Not having any issuses at all right now shifts good and smooth but wanted to change it out before I start...

    Converting a 923 over from motor oil in the Allison to transmission fluid.

    Dang nab it, I just bought 5 gallons of Dex III and filters today, now I don't know if I want to switch, Might just take back Dex and switch it out for new 10w oil and do the oil/filter change. I haven't changed it at all since having the truck due to the military changing the fluids before it...

    Converting a 923 over from motor oil in the Allison to transmission fluid.

    How did you flush out all the old oil, before filling it with Dex fluid

    M1009 stranded, smoke from wire, will not turn over.

    Resistor has been bypassed, that doesn't affect anything except 24 to 12 volt glow plugs, that's not the issue

    Think I'll stick to CUCV's after seeing this post, I think I would just sit in the cab and drink if it broke down.

    1984 Chevy D30 What did I get myself into?

    Without going back and reading the beginning, If it does not have the manual glow plug button installed you need to make sure the glow plug controller card is in it or it wonk crank.

    Sabatoge or Stupidity

    Columbo, boy you must be Inspector Cluso. I'm Sure you never missed anything at all by the sounds of your response, As I stated before after adding the fluid it showed FULL on the dipstick. Don't have a clue why some people have only negative attitudes in responses.

    Picking up my M818

    Where on earth did you find such a good looking truck, Lol, Michael did the right tank work for you along the way or did you rebuild the tank selector valve in San Antonio.

    Sabatoge or Stupidity

    Right we will never know, I can live with it being stupidity that's why the post says both, anyway I'm happy and a little good conversation.

    The M1101 is HOME!

    Sabatoge or Stupidity

    Well how do you figure doghead, it was failed sabotage. Anybody that would take out a filter and pickup up tube and then pack the pan with the rags, whats the reason for doing something like that.

    Sabatoge or Stupidity

    OK, All is good to go with the transmission. Put the filler tube and new filter in, 3 gallons on Dextron III and it works. Thanks to everyone with ideas, sometimes its the easiest things staring you in the face and you don't realize it until someone says "Hey Dummy what about".
