M1009 86 M1009 Question for you doghead, I'm looking for the long red cable from the starter terminal up to where its bolted down on the firewall (believe length around 7ft). I noticed today the cable had been up against the exhaust manifold and burned through quite a bit and I need to...

So, I picked up the recommended starter relay replacement and ordered up a fuel filter conversion kit from Napa that was also posted on steel soldiers. I'll be working on this hopefully this week if not the next. I also need to run that wire to the GP controller as a bypass option. Any...

Thanks Skinny. I'll run a wire to the terminal with the blue wire on the gp controller. That Stanadyne FM100 filter seems like a nice way to go though a bit more pricey.

Also I didn't see any part numbers for a fuel filter conversion plate if there is one?

Thanks tgtaylor and marcus. Sounds like everyone is in agreement with the starter relay replacement by doghead that stickies posted. ill plan on that upgrade change. Tgtaylor where is this resistor your talking about? also as a backup think installing a push button to bypass gp card sounds like...

Sorry guys. postings duplicated.

Thanks 85CUCVtom and Glockamolie for the spin on fuel filter mod and electric fuel pump info. I have a few more questions around that. I've seen an electric fuel pump installed back by the fuel tank to PUSH fuel and help with the mechanical which I hear has problems on the M1009s especially if...

Thanks guys for the info around the push button start, gp controller and relay info. I'm trying to browse more via the search around the different options around this. Any one else have an opinion or additional details around it or how to heat these glow plugs more or push fuel quicker to the...

Skinny, how would I do that? is that just installing a push button and wiring up to the relay and leaving the gp controller card installed?

So, stay with this GP Controller? Where do I buy a new one at? Not sure if this is a NAPA thing and how much they cost. Is there an upgraded version from the originals? What do I do with the relay? Bypass, replace? I hear to also replace that as well. Thoughts? Just trying to get some...

I hear there are a few different ways to help cold starting w an m1009. How do I by-pass this relay? -pi was told that you can also by-pass the gp controller in order to allow them to get hotter. wfew guys tell me they are junk. Some way to allow 12v but not over charge them w the 24v...

I was looking for some guidance on how to best wire up a push button for my glow plugs so that i can start this thing in the northern IL cold this winter. I've heard its not too hard and that I need to run 1 wire from switch to battery and the other from switch to solenoid so that I can hold it...

Thanks Warthog!

Just curious as I'm new to the M1009 world but I noticed that sometimes the blower motor works and other times it doesn't. The setting of Hi, Med, Low doesn't change anything. When it decides to kick in it blows out plenty of air. Is there a relay or something that could be the part I need to...
