    cucv ignition

    I have searched and cannot find an answer. My 86 M1009 has a bad ignition. When I turn the vehicle to off sometimes it keeps running. Until I can get this fixed how can I shut down my vehicle in the event it won't shut off by normal means, ie, the ignition

    Smoke ?

    When I am driving my 1986 M1009 it has recently started smoking. I only see it at nighttime in the headlights of other cars so I can't see the color If I dump the throttle and then slowly start pushing the accelerator it stops. Too much air fuel mixture? Power seems normal too.

    1008 Won't start ???

    Batteries fully charged, when key is in the on position all internal lights go on like normal. When going to start the dog head relay does not ckick, we replaced it and nothing. Starter rebuilt and installed, still nothing. Any thoughts? No turn over. Was running great last time it started.

    Starter removal

    No, we removed it there is no room with the axel, driveshaft ect to pull it out. It is sitting on the axel. Hoping someone has experienced dropping it out. And trust me, my son and I both used the saiors vocabulary.
