I will throw my hat in the ring. I had trouble like this in the past. I had the fuel line at the rear of the cab on the cross member rub a pin hole in it. It was a tough spot to get to but it cured all the ills of the fuel issue. Also the fuel pump is easy to change. Just take your time and get...

I have several ground straps. Now that I reported the issue it has NOT appeared/happened again. It done it for a week or so and then just like that I don't smell it anymore. This is all good. may have been the fuse burn in time even thou they don't look burnt. I can not explain. I really don't...

I never used a heat gun method. I soaked them in armor all for a week or longer and then buffed them up real good. They have lasted for years and as long as I keep them clean I think they hold up well.

They sell seals. You can make seals pretty easy. I am sure you can seal it up. I do not know the purpose of the lip. I know they are old and leak. Mine leak if the vents are open parked in the rain. I know I cleaned a ton of debris out of everyone I ever worked on. I also had a few that the...

Yes you can pull the engine only. I use a jack and a piece of 2 X 10 or plywood and support the transmission. Make sure you leave the torque converter in the transmission. It is very easy to change an engine in a CUCV. Very little wiring and easy to get in and out. I would NOT pull the engine...

Terminus M1009 is all cleaned up and no where to go. IMHO it still looks good and runs and operates great. The alternator lights are on dim when I turn the key on and stay dim the entire time. It is still charging in the green. Can't explain it. But I will change out the alternators and the...

Today was a very HOT day. I spent it outside in the bush weed whacking the tree line for about 5 hours straight. I was sweat soaked and dirty so I thought why not. I will wash Terminus m1009. I wanted to wash the engine compartment for Tinstar. since he never came and took it to wash it. I also...

I have no defined method. I have done it many times. It is a patience thing. Take your time and don't get in a hurry. It is patience and heat that will help you out. I have pulled an engine for this once. I bought one from GSA that had low miles and 2 broken starter bolts and the support bolt...

I agree. I removed the fuses and cleaned and sanded the connections. Not sure that may still be coming from that fuse box. What do you think of the voltmeter higher then the tick mark? I thought in the green A OK.

Recently I have experienced a smell of hot wires. My Mule M1009 is 100% stock. No modifications/bypasses at all to the wiring harness. 9All LED lighting is only non stock electrical). I checked all the obvious things of course. I was under the dash I checked the OEM starter relay all is well at...

Theory= an idea used to account for a situation or justify a course of action: My idea was that I had seen and had one M1009 that would change the gate opening size during severe off road use. Hard flexing of the body and bumps and jars have caused a few M1009/K5 Blazers to flex and the gate...

I think the bolt he is referring to it the one broken off in the block. I never seen a stud in any of these motors at that location. Also Rutjes if it were mine I would remove the motor mounts and replace them while you are in there. But I would probably end up pulling that engine and change all...

I wanted to show the spare tire hold downs but I installed them quickly and the Hi lift jack is bolted to the OEM bolt hole on the right inner fender well. It has a 1/2" bolt and would share the same 3/4" socket tat the lug nuts do. I used 2 of the M1009 spinner spare tire nuts and have both...

Today was NOT a total flop. It was hot and topped it off with major rain fall. That was it I called it in the bottom of the 5th. I had the doors all set up outside and painted the edges and then that was when it got all black. So I used the stretchers to move them back in the shop. It worked out...

I was unpacking some of my gear from Terminus M1009 and was happy with how well the inside had stayed sealed with all the water and mud I had been thru. The water bottle in the back shows how clean it stayed in the cargo area. Other then the fact that I had my Bubba Rope out several times to...

I have been busy playing in MUD. Mowing grass, gathering nice parts for my M1008 project. Today I will be laying the doors, and fenders out and doing a bit of interior/edge painting. I still have a few things to do under the hood on the firewall. No Hood yet so it's technically not under the...

You do know the pintle has a grease fitting up under the rear bumper. And greasing the pintle will be fine. Make sure you have the lock pin in place while towing. I had a steel ring that I would drop in my pintle and it took up some of the slop so it did not bang as much. Good Luck. Have a great...

Should have PMed me on the Knob. I removed my knobs and put Pontiac ones on. They are black and bigger. Easier to get ahold of. The seat covers don't wear light colored pants. That stuff rubs off and the smell never goes away. I took mine out and gave them away. I thought they were the coolest...

Your driving world will end quickly if you catch the hoses on something and don't know it. I think he already realized that. Get the steel tubing out and do the job right. Or think about it every time you go in the brush or mud. Anywhere you route them they are in harms way.
