    Diagnosing Battery Drain

    Solenoids should not come on with ignition off.

    Was the ignition switch or panel lights left on?

    M38 cdn f100574

    I can't answer any of your questions but I have a few of my own. What identifies this M38 as being CDN? The main data plate says "Ordnance Corps" but it appears someone riveted that on recently. Looks real good in the pictures!

    paint

    Depends. Is it a Hummer H1 or a M998 HMMWV?

    Winch Testing

    Sounds ok to me. The drag brake keeps the input from spinning freely. Just make sure you check everywhere for cracks.

    M1078 LMTV planetary hub setup

    I'll take a 50% chance of out of balance vs 100% for sure destruction of driveline. I too have seen numerous LMTVs with the driveshafts out of phase.

    Another No start thread

    Don't forget the usual dead hold up battery in the ECU reason for no-start.

    M1000 Trailer

    Data point on the 19.5 Michelin tires. Our local surplus tire seller, Gensco, got a huge batch in a while back, and promptly began selling them to the car haulers and others that run that tire on trailers. They had to refund every sale. Tires are crap.

    M275 air pack issues.

    While you have it apart, consider retrofitting a tractor protection valve down there. I put one on my A2.

    M185A3 wannabe m756a2 project

    Told you to wait for the experts to chime in. Runaway is a known thing with these engines.

    Before you pull the IP wait for the experts to chime in.

    M185A3 wannabe m756a2 project

    Often the reason for no starts on dormant multifuels is a stuck fuel shut off lever, located under the cover where the engine stop cable goes.

    Gamma goat brake questions.

    I thought the bleeder is behind the brake drum pipe plug when the plug is at 12:00.

    M1089 on 2 Group 27 or 31 vs 8d

    Sure. Alternator is powering solenoids. 4 batteries is for sub zero starts.

    1993 6.5l H1 question

    The H1s suffered miserably from Stanadyne electronic injection pump failures, same as GM diesel vehicles of the time. Other than that, they are very similar to HMMWVs as far as reliability. Edit: 1993 used mechanical injection unless I am mistaken.

    Alternator/Vreg/Gauge charging question.

    Sounds like a hard fail. Maybe double check the connections to the instrument and the case ground if it has one (can't recall) prior to replacing it. I agree it is very nerve wrecking to see it pegged while driving.

    Alternator/Vreg/Gauge charging question.

    Yes. Tap on it and it will go back to 24 volts.

    Bumper Filler

    That was a carryover from the MB/GPW, intended to strengthen the pitifully light gauge steel used for the bumper. By the time the A1 came along, the bumper was thicker and I suppose Willys dropped it as not really needed.

    1951 m104 Trailer

    To carry a larger generator set, for ventilation. I think this was a lesson learned from placing the PE95 in Ben Hur 1 ton trailers in WWII.
