    M1028A1 Trailer Hitch question

    I went with the Curt. It required a little notching on the brackets for the D rings and I had to remove the spare tire carrier. I have a friend with a trailer shop who put mine own while I was at work. When I was discussing hitches with him, he advised me to stay way from the three piece...

    M1028A1 Trailer Hitch question

    I have read countless threads on adding a trailer hitch to these trucks. I have narrowed it down between two. Curt 14082 and the Reese 51016. The Curt will take a little work to put on and it comes welded together. The Reese, I believe takes no modifications to put on, put is put together...

    Glow plug sequence question

    In the past 2 weeks I have replaced my GP relay, GPs and batteries. If it is cold outside I have to wait for the clunk of the relay before mine will start. If I try as soon as the wait light goes off it will turnover but not fire off

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    I just replaced the relay and I have the same issue. The truck is at my parents and he doesn't have a tester. I will bring mine tomorrow. Talking out loud: new batteries, with the smoke and diesel smell I'm getting fuel. I have replaced the GP relay and the GP resister is no longer on the...

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    Rich, The Napa store down the road has one I am picking up at lunch. Thank you for all your help. It will be late tonight, but I will write back and let you know how it goes. The relay that is on it now, is somewhere between 3-4 years old. I do know it was replaced by the previous owner, but I...

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    I haven't checked them. I was thinking it was a fuel issue. The glow plugs were repalced about a year ago with AC 60. I have bypassed the resisitor. It smokes and smells when it fires off for just a second. When it fires up for good, it will smoke and smell and it sounds like it surging and...

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    Rich, My wait light doesn't stay on longer than normal. I thought it could be the GPs so after the click from the GPs turning off, I would use my manual switch and it didn't have any effect. Yes it does smoke andf have a fuel smell when it does fire off. Great, I am horrible at electrical...

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    Back on post #158 I added that I had made this conversion. For the past few weeks it has been hard to start (warm or cold outside). The GPs are less than a year old, I replaced the batteries 2 days ago (group 31 with 950 CCA). It seems to turnover for 8-10 seconds, fires off and dies within 2...

    Some Random NP205 questions

    My light hasn't worked since I got the truck almost two years ago. Last year when Atlanta shut down due to the ice and snow, my light came on and stayed on. Worked perfectly!! Haven't seen it since.

    I have a 1986 M1028A1. I have a leak on one of my power steering lines. Under normal steering conditions it doesn't leak bad, but if you get close to the locks the fluid will come out the top of the crimp closest to the pump. On figure 134 of the -34P TM part number 5 is what I need see...
