    Window won't roll up

    No that is the regulator. I am talking the rear track that the run channel weather stripping rides in.

    one is in the door jam and the other is in the door under the door panel to the bottom rear. 7/16" headed hex bolts. 1/4" sem bolts.

    Window won't roll up

    Try and take the rear track bolts off. There are 2. See if it is jammed in the rear window track.

    Window won't roll up

    Does it crank up? I mean the regulator handle. Does it move or is it jammed. Can you crank down any at all now?

    How do I test the Glow Plug Controller?

    I hear you. But I don't even know where to start to tell you. Test I never knew how to test a circuit card. It either worked or it didn't. I guess I tested it by changing it. I guess you have to get to reading the diagnostic section. I can't help from this point. It would take forever. One...

    How do I test the Glow Plug Controller?

    That is a tough question. So many possibilities. i would recommend getting into the notes here and checking ovr everything from top to bottom of the glow plug system. Have you checked the glow plugs them self? I mean remove them if you have to but you must make sure they are not burnt out. They...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    You know them days when it don't want to start and it gets you burning mad? Lock and load. Some people have decals with bullet holes. I have real holes. Just a little extra patina. I like it. I get a lot of questions about them. Thanks for asking. It's for when unique is what you seek.

    Alternator Help

    Right side / passenger side is Gen 2. The bolt is an M10 X 1.5 pitch. It should come out easily with a drill and easy out. Do not go wild. Get someone to weld a nut onto the bolt remains and get it out. i had a friend break a chunk of the head beating on his. IDK. I was not there. I could not...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Other then a new one. I am out of options. If it is just a crack. An Aluminum welder can fix that.This is my forklift kiss. It has been there all 17 years I owned it. Never affected anything so I just left it go. I did add side fender turn signals. Keeps it in line with European safety...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Just a dirt and sandy dust magnet to run that engine with the cover off. When the cover is on. The spinning torque converter and flex-plate add a small amount of air pressure to blow dirt out thru the small breather hole in the bottom. I picture Texas as being a place I would want that cover in...

    Temp Sensor

    Autozone SU102 Today I fixed a friends temp sensor. He had the old round style and the plug had disintegrated. His wait light would come on everytime he turned the key on. He did not know better and was waiting everytime. He said it always starts and did not know why it was doing it. He came...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Do you run that truck with the flywheel cover missing? Where you successful in getting that M10 bolt out of the coolant manifold? Or did you just end up nutting and bolting it? That's a tough call. I usually scrap that manifold and put another one on. But I have been in that situation where I...

    CUCV M1009 engine problem

    Like head gaskets that are corroded thru. I hope not. I would get a good cooling system pressure tester and pressure test the cooling system. See if it holds pressure or drops pressure. Good Luck. I am thinking injection pump. But to make sure check everything closely.

    CUCV M1009 engine problem

    Remove the check valve on the top of the injection pump. It is the black fitting with the hose coming off the top of the pump. See if you see particulates of black rubber in the fitting. Break the glass ball in the check valve and see if it runs any better. I think your injection pump has an...

    Buzzing noise from locking hub, repair or replace?

    I use Mobil Mine grade synthetic grease.It is some of the best grade of grease you can use for off road and wet dirty applications. I mean a mine how dirty and wet can you get? A little dab will do you.

    Buzzing noise from locking hub, repair or replace?

    You plan on running thru deep water on a regular basis? I would just clean it up and get it working. If funds are tight and you need to go thru deep water. Put some Permatex the right stuff on that hub outer area and reassemble it. I am willing to bet that will seal the hub. A little corrosion...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Of Course I was out cutting wood today. I had a big pile of oak 2x4 lumber rough cut and I wanted to get it burned up. Winter has been mild and it is easier to control the heat with smaller wood. It was free from the truck plant so I took it.This is how you are supposed to use your CUCV. Never...

    Glow plugs, and solenoid problem

    No GEESE were harmed during my response. I am going out now to harm some hardwood. I also received a Milwaukee cordless grease gun as a Christmas gift. I am going out to put it to work. It may be more of an incentive to grease the CUCV's and all the other equipment.I was not trying to make and...

    Glow plugs, and solenoid problem

    For the sake of argument/debate you are NOT bone stock in a CUCV with 60 G glow plugs. I have AC 13 G with 3/16" tabs. To set the record straight that is bone stock. I never have any issues with mine starting either. I just wanted to clear the air with the fact that 60G are NOT stock on a CUCV...
