Unless you have an air leak somewhere in the system, then there shouldn't be any way for the fuel to drain back into the tank.

His is a 3 speed R1 truck, and has the cast mounts. The R1s don't have a UOC that I know of, and I didn't want to just assume for him that it was the same as the M1097A1 for those parts.

I believe that you'd want the A2 progressive rate springs as replacements. You definitely don't want the M1114 springs unless you're using it as a shelter truck or something similar with a lot of weight all the time.

Have you checked both the M998 manual as well as the M1114 manual, and made sure you had the newest versions? Also to add, it does seem that there are multiple springs that aren't in either manual series, due to both the H1 commercial market as well as kits that were made for the HMMWV by the...

The regulator for the alternator can be found in the $500+ price range, and often more. The Orion converter is about $125 all day long on Amazon. Yes, it will work on the rear battery, but not really designed for that large of a load, even intermittently. In this case I'd view the Orion as a...

I'll second this. If checked and not running, level will be much higher than when checked with engine in park and engine idling, which is how the manufacturer says to check level.

12V can be pulled directly off the rear battery with the dual voltage alternator. Supposedly it's good for up to 50 amps of 12V, but it's not recommended that you pull more than about 20 amps of additional load. If you need more than that, you should wire in an Orion 24-12V 70 amp converter...

One thing to mention is there are 2 different types of spring mounts for the rear. Most commonly referred to as cast and stamped/welded. Cast are just that, a chunk of cast steel. stamped/Welded are thick sheet metal bent into shape and welded up. The cast use a longer spring than the stamped...

Runs good at start, then loses power... Could be heat related, and the injection pump needing replaced. I'm not as familiar with with this possible issue, but something to keep in mind if everything else checks out good? As was mentioned before, you can open the fuel filter drain to see if...

Short answer, not worth it. you won't find any electric fans that move anywhere near as much air as the stock fan. Stock fan is in excess of 10k cfm air moved, and most electric are in the 2k cfm range, so you're talking a lot of fans and having to have room for all of them. I believe it's...

For solar, I had to write up a paper in a class where you were trying to convince a lender to loan you money to install a solar array. For my particular location, I wrote up a paper where I could not justify spending money on solar. Still got full marks. (I'm on the western side of the state)...

M1152 2 door truck M1165 4 door truck So my guess is they changed it from a 2 man configuration to a 4 man configuration

Every truck should be DOT 5 if it wasn't equipped with ABS.

As long as they physically fit in whatever location you want to mount them, and you can secure them. Also, the original 6TM battery was rated around 660CCA, so as long as they are above that you should be okay. I've been told the HMMWV will even start on a pair of lawnmower batteries, but that...

You caught me at the right time. Normally I don't even crawl out of bed for at least another 15 minutes.

rear battery should have a smaller wire for the TCM, and a larger wire going up to the alternator. I'd check there first and see if you have the larger wire and if so where it's going, before trying to start at the alternator only to find the wire dangling somewhere it shouldn't be after trying...

I yes. It's rated for 50 amps so use the appropriate wire size. I was still editing my previous answer when you replied :)

Wire A is the 14V tap that would go the the rear battery. It's typically only installed for trucks with 4 speed transmissions. It does help keep the batteries balanced, so installing a wire there is helpful, but is not required for operation in 3 speed trucks. Seeing as you should have a 4...

Most likely you will have to do it as a personal loan, and not a vehicle loan through most financial institutions because they don't recognize military surplus as legitimate vehicles.

B-46176 (not 8 ) is mil spec silicone brake fluid. It's difficult to tell the 6 and 8 apart on stamped covers like that.
