My power steering box on my M1009 has developed a leak around the steering shaft. I already bought the seal and will most probably fix it soon. But, If I were to convert it to manual steering it would eliminate the power steering pump drawing down on the engine (yes, I realize it is a...

Cranked up the M1009 yesterday and went back inside to let her warm up. When I came back out there was a small puddle of diesel fuel on the driveway. It appears to be coming from the center seam in the fuel pump, from what I can tell. So, before I replace it, I wanted to ask y'all what you...

My GEN 1 light came on while driving the other day. So, I rebuilt it with an alternator rebuild kit that I had from cucvelectric.com and cleaned off the electrical contacts. GEN 1 light still stays on. Each battery checks at ~12.5 with the vehicle off. While running, rear battery is at 14.4...

I bought this M1009 about a year and a half ago. When I got her, she was very mechanically sound. Had 42,000 miles on the odometer. However, the electrical components were a nightmare! :-| It was owned by a police department and they had radios, lights, sirens, etc spliced and hacked into every...

My trip to the Bexar County Tax office went less than productive. I bought a 86 M1009 CUCV from a Police Dept and I need to get it titled. I took the Form 130-U to the tax office and they got really confused. There was multiple calls to Austin and much stammering, stuttering and "I don't knows"...

Gentlemen, I am quite new to MVs and even less adept at electrical issues. I have found several solutions here and am very appreciative. Here are a couple of problems I am having and I'd really appreciate your input. - First, neither GEN 1 or GEN 2 lights will light up. I've checked them and...
