Power steering pump.

Apparently you must be unaware of this, the “bots” send you directed advertisements based on your search history.

Does a sledge hammer fit in them? Might be to hold hammer needed to drive in ground rods.

Suggest you leave the transmission oil level 1" low inside the case and use 80W-90.

Is it dripping GO 90 or OE 30?

Suggest you verify the gauge temps with a thermal gun. If you are truly near boilover, look for clogged radiator tubes. No clue if your electric fan has enough CFM to do the job, suggest you get rid of it and go back to the very dependable mechanical fan.

Is your PTO engaged?

Be glad they didn’t use a chain saw to remove the fording valve. All the pieces they removed are readily available.

I agree, 1970's vehicles such as the M880s did not get 24087 semi gloss. 34079 is the base color of most MERDC patterns.

No, that is a WWII color. 24087 would be under a MERDC camouflage. No doubt your wrecker has 383 green on it NOW, but you can be assured that that paint is not what was sprayed on at the AM General factory 39 years ago. These "A0" trucks came with alkyd enamel MERDC camo.

Suggest you go over the harness extremely thoroughly from the WTEC III controller to the transmission looking for more wire issues. Especially where the harness flexes when the cab rotates. The controller verifies that the two wire solenoid circuits are: 1. Not shorted to ground 2. Not...

No, that is a WWII color. 24087 would be under a MERDC camouflage.

I say no. The NATO 3 color camouflage came about a little later, with the HMMWVs and CUCVs in 1984.

Is your display have blue green digits or red digits?

It did go through TX-RSMS rebuild and has refreshed engine and transmission from MTP Drivetrain, Many LA. But it has all crap tires. So who knows.

What is the history on your injection pump? They are full of plastic parts that have a life of about 10 years.

This sounds like a WTEC transmission problem not a DDEC IV engine control problem. Pull codes on the transmission.

Are any PTOs engaged inadvertently?

Some of us have some of those crappy Ft Puke rebuilds stashed. Might be an option.

He is talking about callout 4. That is the tachometer sensor that provides engine speed data to the STE-ICE diagnostics tool. Leave it in place to keep water out of the oil pump drive.
