    No start issue; seeking advice

    Put the military ignition switch back (proper wire connection) and see if that fixes it.

    Hmmwv 6.5 starting problems

    Are both of you seeing the voltmeter dip down during the glow cycle? If not, the plugs are not heating up leading to this problem.

    Where are you guys picking up deuces these days?

    GL sold them all. Now GSA (GSAAuctions.gov) sells ex-fire truck conversions which are typically rode hard put up wet.

    Fuel filter and fuel pump mod

    Thanks for the epilogue. Lesson learned, CUCVs should not be considered reliable until considerable preventive and predictive maintenance has been done. The injector pump seems to have a 10? year life between overhauls regardless of usage.

    Dist. & plugs

    Look in the technical manual forum under Korean War era, use the M38 manuals, ignition system same as A1.

    Help diagnosing failure to crank or stay running

    You will need to narrow down electrical or fuel issue. Put a voltmeter on the solenoid power lead at the injection pump to eliminate that cause. Then chase fuel issues.

    Fuel filter and fuel pump mod

    Agree. Can’t imagine trying to fix a truck for that long. If he was here in SE Texas we’d had him fixed and rolling long ago.

    Anybody disassembled the fan clutch?

    Oh now that is a problem. I would see if I could hammer in the next larger metric allen wrench.

    Different ratio than M113. Same otherwise.

    M543 (Multi) won't rev over 1500

    Welcome. When you fix the prime problem and clean and refresh the fuel system, most likely this will resolve.

    I Took the Plunge: 71DeuceAK's 1986 M928A1 Project

    Diboll TX whatever you do, don’t speed through that town!! Yup FD’s love to whack frames, my LWB deuce which also came from the Texas Forest Service had a similar frame whack. The only time I part out a truck is if it’s rusted to bits. Don’t give up on it.

    CREW DUKE on FMTV?

    Wes uses them as a kind of fidget spinner for the eyes I think.

    Fuel filter and fuel pump mod

    Might have 30,000 but injection pump could be 36 years old and its full of plastic parts that break and then it won’t run. Maybe where you are is a repair shop that specializes in diesels, get it towed there and kick back in a hotel room while they fix it. It’s about a half a day work to swap...

    Fuel tank sending unit assembly

    If nobody responded that tells you nobody knows where to find one. I sure don’t. They used to show up on ebay for almost $300. That was years ago that I was looking and gave up. Yes the sender is the same as civilian.
