Hey guys what is the proper name for the tool to install the black packard plugs shell connector what ever you want to call them. On our vehicles. I have been using regular wiring crimp tool seems to work. But in tight space it’s a pain. Thank you

I’m looking for an Injection pump for my 93 M1097. It seems like an odd one. I know they’re pricy but not interested in paying 1000-2600. Those are prices I seen. Mine is leaking out of the weep hole. I’ll post the pic of mine thank you.
Hello. So I need an Injection pump. I know this isn’t the classified section. But my question is can they be replaced with another one that’s not the same number. For example if it’s DB2-1234 will DB2-4567 work. Reason I’m asking is is the company I’m looking at does not list the one I have...
Hello everyone. I moved from the trucks. To my first M1097. I really like it but got a valve cover leak recently and over night developed a fuel leak. The mechanic who was going to replace my valve cover gasket pointed it out looks like the weep hole. Seems like a common issue so now looking for...

So I took the M818 out for a ride today after getting everything done. Went about .2 miles and the temp was at 240. Got her home. I have some ideas what might be wrong, I drained the coolant in Feb pulled out the dead mice in the coolant tank replaced thermostat and gasket all new fluid. I’m...
Hi Valley Rock. Do you know what year Dodge truck it was off of? I want to do the same thing my old deuce hitch won’t fit because of the lights. I would buy the hitch if I knew which one. Just curious thanks
I got my horn fixed tonight it was either the horn button the rusty nut or the bad looking wire. My wife is really good at putting on those packard plugs. Here’s a question where does the wire that goes down the steering shaft come out at? I looked through the TM it shows the steering shaft but...
