As far as I know, there is no such thing as a four door CUCV pickup until the CUCV II, however I saw one going down the road in SD today. Either I am incorrect about the lack of a four door model, or someone made a pretty good replica. I wish I had been able to get a photo...

Turns over like a gas engine now... well kinda. :)

The GP system in Tank is in good working order. I just installed brand new glow plugs, and she starts from cold perfectly. The issue I have is that if I run her then leave her sit for an hour or two, then go to start her again, she'll never turn on the plugs, and consequently spit and sputter...

I just got done putting new glow plugs in the M1009. I went with the AC 60Gs, and replaced the factory connectors with 1/4" female blade terminals. She starts like a dream now! The cycle time on the light is longer than it was before I installed the new plugs, but from what I have read that's...

Smoke, idle, and power issues... (video) I've gone searching through a bunch of threads and haven't found one that seems to match the problem that I'm having. My '09 is putting out quite a bit of white smoke at idle, and the idle is a bit rough as well. It doesn't make too much of a difference...

I took the M1009 down the interstate yesterday and cruised along at 75 MPH no problemo. It had no problem bottoming out the speedo (85), though I only did this for a second just to get a feel for things. Having no tach, I don't want to push the engine past the "safe" range. With the 3.08...

Hey guys, I've done some searching here on SS as well as Google, and I can't find much. What exactly is the "port" with the threaded cover under our dashes for? I'm guessing from what little info I have found that it is some type of power supply port. If so, can it be used to power anything...

Before I order parts to fix my rear window issue, I wanted to check with some of you who have done this before. My rear window crank works, sort of, when and if it wants to. It catches, then free spins, then catches, almost as if something is stripped out. I'm guessing one of the "ears" on the...

It was sunny, and I couldn't resist trying to force summer a little bit! :mrgreen:

I drove into town and back today with the 1009, and on the way home, I started hearing and occasional "clunk, clunk" from somewhere underneath the truck. I noticed that it still did it even when stopped at a light, so I figured it had to be something that was turning even with the truck sitting...

When I changed the transmission, I cracked open the 208 since I had it out anyway, just to have a look and see what kind of shape it was in. There were quite a lot of metal shavings in there, and the magnet was pretty well caked with them. I cleaned it out and slapped it back in the truck for...

I'm in the middle of removing the TH400 from my 09 to replace the cracked case. I have everything unhooked and ready to come out, but there are a couple of things I'm unsure of. Do I need to wait until morning and go get a transmission jack before I undo the bell housing bolts, or am I going to...

I want to do something similar with the gauges in my M1009, only probably without so much bling.

I had the rear drive shaft u-joint at the pinion break on my way out to work yesterday. Made a heck of a bang bang bang! Since it broke at the rear I figured "no problem". Pulled it off the splines and threw it in the back. took a styrofoam coffee cup and put over the open output and duct taped...

I'm going to add a set of the typical oil pressure and water temp gauges. I would also like to install a couple of volt gauges. I think it would be cool to replace the dummy lights with them. Has anyone here done this?

Some of you had asked me for pics of the newest addition. Here they are finally! :jumpin:

What kind of injector cleaner do you guys think works best in our engines?

The 09 chucked it's pass side alt belt two days ago. Been driving it around ever since with no problems but a Gen2 light. Guess it's not too critical. I'll fix it eventually, as soon as I can get back to town for a belt the right length.

When I first picked up my M1009 a few days ago, it was running pretty rough. A good share of that issue was an air filter packed full of mud, but even after cleaning up that mess, she was still a little rougher than ideal. Today when I filled the tank, I added a full quart of 2cycle oil, then...
