    HMMWV starts then stalls

    This truck is an NA and has no catalytic converter, nor is this a problem on NA’s that do…it’s purely a “Turbo” truck issue, at least from my experience

    HMMWV starts then stalls

    sounds like you have the cold advance and fuel cutoff wires reversed at the top of the pump, the rearward plug is “ribbed” to match the injection pump ribbed boot, 54A is the fuel cutoff solenoid and is the forward plug. when the truck warms up, it denies 24v on the cold advance thermostatic...

    A very odd TRANS light issue

    unplug the brake switch and check for 12v on the body harness side, make a switch or jumper and replicate pressing the brake pedal to lock and unlock the TCC….you will be able to feel and hear it and can do this as you drive along at a steady rate of about 45mph, this will tell you the TCC...

    A very odd TRANS light issue

    that’s the CPS “crank pos sensor” if it were unplugged the “trans”lamp would be on while the Engine is running because the TCM wouldn’t see the engine running.

    Injection Pump Reinstall Problem on 6.5 Turbo

    I believe that big Allen head bolt has an o-ring on it…I’d have to take one apart here in the shop to see. Does the truck run good?

    Injection Pump Reinstall Problem on 6.5 Turbo

    This is just another example of why I only use pumps from HPG or MAC motors, either rebuilt or new, the amount of time spent removing this pump again negates any savings,I learned this lesson many years ago. As far as Pensacola diesel goes, I got nothing good to say about them either as a pump...

    A/C Diagnostic help

    that 5lbs has to be a “typo”, cuz the service label on the trucks say 3lbs 8oz….but yes, follow the pressure chart.

    A/C Diagnostic help

    pressure chart is best, as well as temp gauge inserted into one of the vents while on full, running at 1500rpm…the TM calls for 3lbs 8oz, but that does depends on the pressures banned on air temp.

You...

    Injection Pump Reinstall Problem on 6.5 Turbo

    STOP if you tighten these bolts without being completely seated and flush on the timing gear, you will break the pump shaft, its a milled surface and it’s tight, remove all bolts, push on the timing gear with your fingers and shake the pump while pushing the pump, the two surfaces will be flush...
