    Will a humvee key switch work in a M-series truck?

    I like that switch setup. $89 on eBay?

    M925a2 Power Surge

    No way. See it, drive it, video it, I’ll pull it, fasten it to a pallet, and drop off at a shipping terminal. Complete minus fan clutch. Includes modern gear reduction starter, 130 amp high output alternator, and serpentine driven A/C compressor. If the Road Ranger trans fits and works, the...

    M925a2 Power Surge

    Cute. It’s an ISX Signature 600hp non-EGR engine. Could push the entire intersection of cars up onto the lawn. I’m listing my current 6CTA8.3 in the classifieds. That should get me motivated for the ISL/13 speed transplant.

    M925a2 Power Surge

    Interesting path. It still has full length frame rails. I’d need a front axle, steering parts, transfer case, and a cab.

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    TBD, we’re about to find out. They look nearly the same, inline pump made by the same company, so maybe just a matter of the nut thread type. Even of mot, Cummins civilian on-road 8.3’s use P pumps, so lines are available and probably not expensive. This will be interesting to watch, I hope it...

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Going to send him the 5.9L P pump to try. If works, then pay. Also going to pre-cut a mounting gasket for him to seal off the oiling port in the 8.3L timing case. MW injector lines may or may not fit, TBD. Install sequence: Rotate engine to #1 TDC (compression not exhaust), push in timing...

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    I have two Bosch P-7100 "P" pumps. One is off an 8.3L, and one is off a 5.9L. I am keeping the 8.3L one until I have my ISL conversion complete. I would sell the 5.9L one immediately. It came from a truck salvage yard, with a 90 day guarantee, so it should be good. The only difference...

    Throw a piece of clear tube on the outlet, see if any air bubbles.

    M939 Series Arctic Personnel Heater Installation Questions

    Whoa, a message from the Gods! Excellence. Now it needs to happen. Noted, thanks. Plan to move the hot water heater to under the pass seat (shorten the core box). Use the fuel fired for initial, and hot water as maintain. Window is thermostat as you mentioned.

    M923A2 - Loss of Power While Driving

    Cummins 6CTA8.3 service manual states mechanical lift pump should be pushing minimum 20psi of fuel pressure at high idle. Mechanical pump volume flow test with open hose into container is 150ml (5oz) at 30 seconds of cranking with fully charged batteries and minimum 120rpm crank speed. I don't...

    Yes. Yes.

    Awesome sauce. Really need to quit leaving the keys in these trucks. Geez...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Cascade flush works excellent.

    Apology, I thought that pic was associated with another member's name. My memory is terrible though. I'd be further ahead if I just kept my mouth shut.

    How did you get your screen name changed? Or did you steal somebody else's photo, which looks familiar.

    Prisoner from Lansing, KS escapes in M929.

    OK, I just did. I can't find the ignition key anywhere in that book either.

    Prisoner from Lansing, KS escapes in M929.

    Oh, OK. Thanks, I didn't know that.

    Prisoner from Lansing, KS escapes in M929.

    They probably have the keys in a lock box.
