    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    How did the trans fluid look? was there much "mud" in the pan?

    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    Check that trans light, it will help to let you know if you have a power issue, too bad you were not paying attention when the trans was working to insure you have a working light. By now you should be gathering all the filters and fluid for a complete change of all the fluids and filters on...

    1987 M998 Battery Generator Gauge Bouncing in Red, Stays in Red while driving for few minutes

    Most likely you have a 60A alt and the regulator is going wonky It will toast a good set of batteries so you really should attend to it now. Of course you should have put a volt meter on the batteries to confirm yes?

    General Questions

    IIRC the basket mounts go under the floor, you install the floor first using the center bolts (loosely), you start with the rear most piece and work forward

    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    First do you have a transmission light when in run position but not running? if not then you probably have a power issue, the red button an be pushed any time. If you do have a transmission light as described above then you need to read the codes, all that information is in this guide.

    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    It takes a long time at idle (if ever) before you will feel any heat in that top hose, the small hose going to the reservoir getting warm is a good sign that water is moving in the system. Just make sure the PS pump is full after every time you run it until the steering is working

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I got a good look at the two different sides and the A2 steering arm definitely has different geometry so if you put the A2 drag link, tie rods etc. on your Basic or A1 (which I did on the DuraVee) and do not change the steering arms you are not getting the A2 steering geometry. EDIT they...

    Best quality oil filter for the Humvee ?

    That link is for the HUMMER, some parts are not correct for the HUMVEE, particularly the fuel filters, the civy world would not have put up with that piece of junk they put on the Humvee

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Mystery solved, they broke the steering arm, I managed to get all the broken and bent bolts out so I may get to go on that little jog after all. Check out that corrosion! NOTE, all I had was an A2 (CTIS) steering arm, evidently there are dimensional differences as the tire is still way out of...

    Humvee beadlock rubber runflat replacement

    I never have had a problem, it has been a while but IIRC I just set it on an upside down bucket so the weight was resting on the outer half and just pushed down.

    Humvee beadlock rubber runflat replacement

    You cannot "break" the bead on these wheels with the run flat in place, the rim must be separated, tire machine is a definite no no

    M1167 A/C trouble shooting

    Could be a bad regulator, check the voltage at the IGN terminal to make sure it tracks with the battery voltage, the regulator probably uses that as a reference so if it is low it will try to raise the voltage, also of course check all the connections from the batteries to the block and alt...

    M998A1 6.2 NA injector options

    Not sure if that is a valid number or not but the parts TM has two numbers listed depending on what IP you have. If you have the "correct" IP then it would be the second nozzle, your M998A1 has a UOC of A13
