    What HMMWV Engine did I really get?

    Kinda depends on your inspection when you get it. If the lubricants are spotless clean after a run, no sense in changing them. Hard to tell on the cooling system, so a flush in in order. If your batteries are recent Hawkers, get an AGM charger and use them indefinitely. A grease job per the...

    Sounds like the bull gear has the teeth stripped off. Drain the oil and see what comes out.

    Help me ID this

    If it's a 4 cylinder, post your pictures on the G503 site and those guys will tell you what it is and the name of the guy that worked in the casting department at Willys the day it was made. WF could be Willys of France, that's all I can suggest.

    No Parking Brakes 1997 M1078

    Your rear brakes are not caged. If the truck won't roll with air drained, the problem is as described in post 12. If it WILL roll with air drained, the rear brake wedges are stuck.

    No Parking Brakes 1997 M1078

    Does the truck roll with no air pressure in the system? Please post a picture of the rear brake cans or pots or chambers, whatever term you prefer.

    No Parking Brakes 1997 M1078

    Oh boy. Look at the rear brake pots. Are there threaded rods protruding from the middle? If so remove them.

    What HMMWV Engine did I really get?

    It's a 6.5. The painted intake tells me it has been rebuilt. Nice paint on your truck. Trans is 3 speed.

    mule running and idling great but no power?

    Maybe the carb jets are gummed up. Try some Seafoam in the tank.

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    It is certainly ya'lls constitutional right to hate law enforcement, however understand that when LEOs see a military vehicle driven by someone in civilian clothes, they automatically assume it could be stolen (probable cause). It certainly is in your best interest to be 100% polite if stopped...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    "Because I let you" is a super smart ass remark and I am not surprised it degrades from there. A traffic stop is technically an arrest.

    So what did I win ??? CUCV II, III ????

    I HATE YOU! I got caught up with a presentation at work and couldn't fight you for it. (LOL) It's the real deal, CUCVII, a highly unusual GMT400 body style Tahoe made in 2000 in Arlington when all production had already switched to the new body style. It is a militarized Z71 package which is...

    Another LMTV No start thread M1078

    I would fill the Allison full per the dipstick. I do have the Allison manual saved, but I forgot that it is for the WTEC II not the III you have. Both transmissions have an oil level sensor which will tell the trans to fault to DNS or Do Not Shift if the level is incorrect. I don't think the...
