    Clueless In Texas - ECV M1151 Electronic speedometer

    Tried to replace the electronic sending unit. Looks as though the square ended shaft broke off inside the opening to the transfer case. WTF do I do now? Here's what the sending unit looks like and a photo of an unbroken shaft. Shaft won't go into the whole as it seems there is a piece of the...

    BYPASS START SWITCH AND JUMP STARTER 803A 10K

    Just like anything else, shouldn't there be a way to safely start my 803A by jumping the starter? Tried in vain many times to repair issues with the switch and everything in between the switch and the starter. Some of you tried to help me with it a few months back. Now I just want it to run when...

    HMMWV dip stick tube oil filler tube

    By looking at this pic, is the oil filler tube broke off in the motor, or is this actually what the new filler tube goes into? Also, if it's broken off, is it threaded, or can I just pull it out? 1998 M1097 3 speed 6.5L.

    Who In Humveedom Knows - IP Question

    Who in Humveedom has information on a cross-over for a Stanadyne IP - DB2831-6278? This is for a non-turbo 6.5L on a M1097R 4 speed. Someone offered me a new DB2831-6282 for $600, but I've been told that's for a turbo.

    The TM does not cover this well for me, so I need y'all's help. 6.5 Optimizer, New batteries, new starter...Motor turns just enough to make the fan blade move an inch every time I start it, but won't go any further than an inch. Will turning the motor by hand for a while help to un freeze it...

    M1097 6.5L 4 speed Thermostat - fan - issue question....

    1996 M1097 runs great (we had previously flushed the radiator, added new coolant, and replaced the coolant temp sending unit), but after driving for just three miles (in 50 degree weather), fan came on and then did not shut off for the rest of the 7 mile trip. Later that day we ran it again and...

    4L80 Stuck in 2nd Gear

    Just finished a build for Texas A&M and found the transmission is stuck in second gear. This is a 1097 A2. When we first got it the shifter was super hard to shift, but after some WD-40 and a little work, it shifted fine. It will still shift into neutral and reverse, but when you put it into...

    Easy Access to E-brake Parking Brake Warning Light and Glow plug regulator wait light.

    I am just a basic kinda dude trying to make it in the complicated world of Humvees. I go to the TM's and most of the time I can understand and follow them with only 5 to 10 hours of re-reading and looking at photos. I am a hands on person who has always learned by doing things, not reading...

    Batteries reversal Mishap

    Got a call this morning that a client had accidentally reversed the batteries. The glow plug unit was not damaged and it still starts, but none of the lights work.

    Serpentine belt for M1123 with red dot a/c

    So I am a little confused. It seems there's four different belts for m1123's. There's two belts for the pre serial# 180,000 (one non-a/c, and a longer one for one with an a/c), and two for post 180,000 serial number 1123's (one for non-a/c and one for a/c). I just got a 2000 1123 ser#...

    Stuck oil filter HMMWV

    Was using a tooth wrench to remove an oil filter on one of my humvees (a new purchase) and all the wrench does is poke holes in the filter. I know I can tear the filter apart and get it out that way. Anyone know an easier route? thanx.
