    Wait light not coming on - but starts (2006 M1097R1)

    . Good deal! Yes sir, nothing like getting a few new tools :cool: . Be sure to read @Milcommoguy 's section on testing the plugs. (Link above) And you can do that now while you are waiting on the new parts to arrive.

    Wait light not coming on - but starts (2006 M1097R1)

    . @Ramzi , It will benefit you greatly by replacing all the glow plugs and one time. Yes, you might do okay to replace a few - but you will be continuously working on glow plugs if you do. AND, I would look carefully for real glow plugs rather than the cheapest things you can find on Amazon...

    Wait light not coming on - but starts (2006 M1097R1)

    . I'm not sure that you need to install a "push to glow" box. Might be worth removing your glow plugs and inspect them. Thinking that you could spend the money to buy a set of glow plugs - rather than a push to glow box... You may find some are swollen in their spot.

    WC-something and roadside "burial?" piles , Bavaria, early 1946

    . Well, I gave up. On the link. It works - kinda. I was able to scroll left and right. Was able to see dates. I clicked on several dozen and got nothing. I managed to get several with a red exclamation in them. Never really SAW anything - picture related. Maybe I need to try a different...

    Braden LU2 on M37

    . I am of the opinion that a Braden winch is the right winch. The Braden Winch Company of Broken Arrow Oklahoma provided all the winches for the Dodge WC series of 3/4 Ton 4x4 and 1-1/2 ton 6x6 military trucks during WWII. In 1983 Braden Winch company was sold to PACCAR Manufacturing...

    Hydraulic Manifold Valve Knob

    . You might look in the TM, Parts in particular... I extracted two pages that might be useful. There is a WAD of O-Rings in those little selector valves. There is another source of information - written in regular english - that might also help...

    . Looks like you got it pretty clean! Fuel sock was sloshing around in the bottom of the tank? .

    Not getting 24v at the batteries

    . No Sir. An equalizer is so if you are using more 12v power, this will keep the batteries equalized.

    Hydraulic problems on M817 Dump

    . Well, I can say that the oil in the hydraulic system should be a 10wt oil. It definitely shouldn't be "thick" at all. Possibly disconnect the PTO linkage, then operate the PTO from under the truck. Does it work that way?

    . Maybe on the other side of the truck? This side looks like asphalt to me..

    From fire truck to MTV

    . So mom wasn't pleased... Oh my goodness! Her babies might fall off the top of that truck. It will be just fine. You seem to have taught them not to walk off the edge...

    LED replacement no flashing

    . True, but the indicator is part of the assembly. Doesn't really help, but the indicator would be replaced as part of the assembly... .

    Can I revisit wet stacking?

    . Before you "turn in the towel" on you wiring up the connection to your house, check with Building Standards in your area. I am in the city of charlotte and I wired my house from scratch. I also wired our industrial building about 15 years ago. Yes, I had to pull permits in both instances...

    LED replacement no flashing

    . Yeah, that is kinda crummy. No, more like pretty frustrating! I found a HMMWV Troubleshooting book that might be useful. Page 147 to 153 gives you a lot of things to measure and test.
