I received this yesterday. "The Title certificate for your recently purchased 1994 AM General M1097A1 HMMWV 2 Door Hard Top w/Helmet Top has been sent out by Fed-Ex Ground." It almost funny they think 8 months is "recent" :eek:

;)

The Detroit is a "dirty" engine with its mechanical injection so there is no advantage to using the more expensive synthetic oil as it will not extend the oil change interval.

Any "diesel" 15w40 made today is good enough for the Detroit

I modified a rear winch mount for my MileMarker, cost me $75 IIRC the last MileMarker front mount I saw was was stupid expensive.

We need allot more information, what model winch? what brackets are you trying to use? pictures would be a big help.

If anytime in the recent past it needed an engine it would have received a 6.5L the 6.2L has been out of circulation for a long time and that does not mean your machine went through a "rebuild", also that is not a tach drive that is only used by the diag. port to test the RPMs, the tachs drive...

I love when they say "recent" as in 8 months ago :eek: "The Title certificate for your recently purchased 1994 AM General M1097A1 HMMWV 2 Door Hard Top w/Helmet Top has been sent out by Fed-Ex Ground".

Assuming that truck has a 400A alt the engine is idling too slow, (in that case the tach should read around 850 RPM) and holding the steering against the locks or pressing real hard on the brake pedal is a good way to blow seals

If you are shifting the TC properly, with the engine off and the trans. in neutral then at times the shifting dogs do not line up making it difficult to get it into the range you want.

If you are talking about the way the TC shifts that is normal. Please close the door, 28 tonight geez......

Including the numbers on your alt. will help.

It actually can cause ground loops that can have unintended consequences, every device on a HMMWV has a specific ground return path. IMHO the only reason this ever got off the ground was because to install it you must "disturb" many of the original ground points and some found it "helped" when...

You mean something like this? I don't see it listed separately, best to put a want in the classifieds.

The TCM uses the crank sensor for engine rpm, nice sign wave, 4X the crank speed on the 6.5L.

Resistance when not running, all transmission speed sensors put out AC when in operation. The exception to this is the RPM sensor on the back of the early engines for daig use, they are simply a reed switch, open or closed

Fix the factory grounds and you will be fine, adding more grounds creates ground loops and more "weak" links IMHO

You probably have a bad ground to that light, when you check it with the lights off you are likely seeing continuity through the light filaments, that is why it goes away with the lights on. But to answer your question, no a dimmer switch cannot affect the ground.

I think they look better that way on any installation.

I am curious what you drive in the civy world? Almost every vehicle has lower oil pressure when at idle, especially when warm, only Fords have the same indicated pressure all the time and that is because what looks like a gauge is actually a mechanical idiot light, the Ford engine has a simple...
