Does anyone know the final word, engineering reasons, these fuel line check valves were included by AM General? What specific issue(s) are they there to fix? What possible side effects would permanently removing them cause?

I thought I read somewhere that the transmission also needs to go through a basic programming/learn procedure after the switch the ATF.

Why did your tranny die?

Does simply turning the pump up provide benefit? Does one need to increase the boost or change anything else?

You can explain anything away with fandom reasoning. The HMMWV disintegrated in a roll at 45mph. Military spent millions refitting older HMMWVs with rollover mitigation tech and the new ones have it. That wasnt because of one "staged" test. Looking at the construction on these trucks what I...

Here is a list of MTVR part numbers. I verified some of them so the list is valid. https://oshkoshdefense.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Oshkosh-Corporation-Price-Listed-Parts-November-2016.pdf

Interesting report on Rollovers and restraint use but only through 2013: PDF Report

This HMMWV sat in the yard without a gas cap. To be thorough I pulled the tank to clean everything out Yeah the plug was a pain to get out even with an empty tank. I found an old plug inside the tank. I understood why it was in there after I realized the easiest way to get the old, decrepit...

My immediate though when seeing that disaster of a test is that if I wanted to keep one of these things and drive it that the prudent thing to do would be to install a full welded safety cage. MVTR has a 5 point harness. These things should too if you are really using it.

I respect your expertise on the subject. I tried it every which way and the back of the tank kept getting hung up on the diff yoke. The tank had 10 gallons of fuel in it. Maybe that was the issue. I supported it with a jack but the weight may have prevented the maneuverability needed. (I didnt...

The video rollover where the thing disintegrates is at 45mph. This is all new to me but just a bit of research shows that its not that hard to roll a HMMWV. High center of gravity. I think more people need to be fully aware of what they are buying and driving. Its a cool vehicle but has 1960's...

Does anyone know where can get MTVR door latches or the part number for the latches?

Thanks for sharing the feedback

Ask them what quantity run would be required to bring the price down to $1000

Its possible. Ill check. One manual details a EEPROM programming unit with a socket. Usually EEPROMS get pulled out and inserted into a EEPROM programmer but that was really old school tech. Maybe this updated board doesnt have a eeprom and the fault code was never updated. Its memory was just...

The reason to disconnect the hard lines is shown in the OP photos. The hard lines cross over the top of the transfer case. To a degree where they cannot just be pushed aside. Not without mangling them. My tank is not coming down without disconnecting the lines at the top of the tank. On this...

Looks like I misread the instructions. It does say to disconnect the hard lines from the top of the tank. I was reluctant to mess with the flares since my line wrenches did not fit over 2 of them but luckily standard open end wrench works fine. They are not tight like brake lines.
