I was NEW to GP & made a mistake bid. I called to see if I could retract a bid - no go. Luckily someone else bid higher. Lesson learned for me. Not that it won’t happen again…
I also fell victim to ‘shipping’ when I intended to pick up. I try to pay closer attention to process now. They...
We’re you pulling a trailer at the time? Check to see if you can hear or feel the relay respond when the turn signal is switched to L or R. Also make sure the light switch is not set to blackout drive.
After the “quick & easy to check” items are scratched off you’ll need to get out the manual.
I pulled this out of the operator’s TM. The description gives a couple of clues about what could be faulty. Do you have a unit level maintenance manual?
“Only 3”. I bet we would have been great friends! Lol
My wife would skin me alive! She still doesn’t see the value & possibilities of the M1083A1 I picked up! Ha ha

First thing, wait until the glow plug light goes out before attempting to start. I suspect that your glow plug controller is faulty & you could very well have bad glow plugs. It seemed to turn over a few more times before starting than I remember. You should change the fuel filter & air...
That looks nice. Never heard of a Barstow rebuild. If it came from Ft. Irwin (NTC) you might temper yourself for grave disappointment. The maintenance guys (civilians) who maintain and repair the equipment for units rotating through for training evaluation notoriously SUCK at doing even the...
I received my EUC with 72 hours after submitting that & the SF97. The SF97 still has me in a holding pattern. I wrote a scathing email to GP clearly stating my dissatisfaction with their poor level of customer service. I literally felt my SF97 go to the bottom of the growing stack….
