    Humvee Injector Replacement

    Correct, and That pop pressure is absolutely crucial to the engine running correctly. If the 2 engines used the same the injector, they wouldnt make 2 different injector per the TM, the UOC is specific.

    Missing cap on air inlet

    being it’s a USMC truck, the air intake is sealed to prevent water intrusion during fording, that also allows water to NOT drain either…unless the filter housings clean out plug has deteriorated or fallen off to allow water to exit…but I doubt it. Ive heard of folks who had alot of water in the...

    Mechanical/Lift Pump Issues M1043A2

    do you have fuel in the tank? Have you verified you don’t have a problem at the fuel tank and not the pump itself? if it ran and now not getting fuel, Yes…it could be a bad pump, but the rod if not broken, is not the issue. I would remove the 2 anti-siphon valves on the fuel tank lines and just...

    Humvee Injector Replacement

    no, you cannot use turbo injectors on an NA motor…and why the hell would you put some Chicomm crap injectors in when you can buy OEM? and yes…there is a quality difference.

    Tachometer Inaccurate?

    No, you want to replace the fixed with over running type…don’t swap them. also, the nut for the over running pulley is different than the 200amp nut.

    an NA truck gets an NA, a Turbo truck gets a Turbo engine…an NA truck doesn’t get a Turbo upgrade.

    CA title

    There is a car dealership in SoCal that is/was under investigation for title fraud, I know of a person who’s “registration“ was blocked for renewal, but they can’t “revoke” your title per sey, but they can just refuse to issue new tags. The owner spoke directly with the CHP officer who told him...

    HMMWV Rebuild process

    No sir..when a truck went into “reset”, it was all dependent on the standards already set in the contract, known as IROAN, No trucks were upgraded to a turbo from an NA.

    Tachometer Inaccurate?

    You probably have a 400amp with the small fixed pulley, this pulley is smaller in diameter than the over running pulley, thus it shows a higher RPM, as Greg said, the Tach is wired to the generators signal for rpm source. The turbo trucks also Tach higher due to the 3.08 differentials When driving….

    Fuel pump part number

    i get it, But unfortunately you have to Apply the “KISS” theory just like we did in the military….if not , you are just under the assumption the individuals will actually remember a rather complex method of finding part numbers via NSN. I was an instructor for 28yrs in my Civilian job as a...

    Fuel pump part number

    Your making it even more difficult than it has to be…the part number by itself crosses to civilian part numbers and vendors with just s Simple Google search of the part number listed in the TM, you don’t have to cross the NSN to find all the companies that made.
