    Cooling upgrade system.

    Do a google search, there are numerous ways to accomplish this, it's been done for years. Another method is using another water crossover on the rear of the head, there are several water crossovers for these motors based on years. EGT's are more prevalent in turbo's....that's a different topic...

    Cooling upgrade system.

    Rear cooling kits are nothing new, these are already for sale from other aftermarket Hummer dealers as well as Diesel suppliers. It's nothing new to take the 2 rear water Jacket plates and drill and tap them, install small cooling lines tied into the rest of the cooling system. You will need to...

    1990 6.2 hmmwv idle issues

    cold advance does not work that way...it advances the timing. Do what I said above, disconnect the accelerator cable at the pump.

    What should I do...and what are my options legally.

    GP was selling M998's with 2004 data plates, they were re stamped when they went through reset. i get trucks from GP constantly that have mods that don't merry up with the year of mfg on the data plate, for example, the location of the seat belt mounting location on the tunnel, the 85-8? Had the...

    Look, what none of us know is what deal the DLA made with GP on the stamping...is the stamp legal? Based on the form, it say it's void if modified, must be machine prepared. I had a DMV rep tell me this exact thing. What if I stamped X's over it? That would void it just like a stamp that can't...

    HMMWV Won't Start - Even after the usual suspects have been repaired......

    yes, that's the culprit...but now, what caused it? That's the million dollar question. Did you have a brand new in the box S3? Or a supposed new one off ebay? If it were me? I would do a new box and engine harness, but that's me not wanting to spend another small fortune on a 3rd box...

    I have owned a Hummer H1 since 2000, a98 to be exact, I have worked on in my shop every year mfg'd. The 92 and 93 are closest to a hmmwv in almost every respect. Safety items are tail lights are reflective, Hmmwv's are not, nothing different on side impact that I have ever seen, in fact, they...
