Did a break job on my m1009 for an out of round drum. During road test had a metallic noise from rear. Secured all cargo and rechecked. ...still there what the heck! I'm pretty thorough but was doubting my work. Then I saw the wd40 can under the bench seat. ...one of the small ones!

Gotta try to diagnose why my voltmeter stays on with key off tomorrow. I've been disconnecting my battery negative to get it to go off. Guess I will start with the voltmeter relay under the dash near the ashtray area. Anyone else ever have this prob? I would've opened a new thread but...

Wow! So they are still selling cucvs. I would like another! How much if you dont mind?

My gen 2 light didnt come on at startup...then flickered and went out. Threw a meter on the rear batt...only12.3 volts. Ended up the square plug on pass alternator was all full of what appeared to be tar or undercoating. Cleaned it up and all is well! Guess I missed a connection whenI was...

Been pressure washing and washing and washing again my m1009 undercarriage in preparation for some unerbody painting. What a chore. Discovered a few bits of hardware stuck in strange places and original gm black paint where I thought thete was rust. I think this truck is a winner because there...

4 hrs total to install fuel pump on my m1009. Thanks for all the advice cucvrus. I feel tired and sore and hope to not ever need another!

Only took 15 min to make a gasket verses a trip to town. Now just trying to get the pump bolts started...much cussing! Seems like the back bolt has to start first. About ready to remove that pesky gen like you...but im stubborn!

Heck yeah! Just got the plate off and making a gasket right now. I had it all wrong....the rod moves in and out...not up and down. So the grease will hold the rod in while fuel pump is installed.

Ahhh...so that rod does go on top of the fuel pump actuator. And loosening the plate bolts will free the stuck rod.

Cucvrus....I been replacing it from the top but without removing gen. Refresh my memory....I dont remember ever removing that rod plate. This pump never quit working...it was just leaking between the two halves...nothing in the oil as I have heard can happen. The rod is stuck at the bottom edge...

Putting a mechanical fuel pump on my m1009 right now...and im outta swear words! Took the steel line off first... its dripping fuel for 20 min.....looking for a place to pinch the rubber fuel line to stop it since tank is full...this made in usa pump better last a lifetime!

Thanks for the info

Bought a pair of 24 volt ir lights with both red and clear lenses. Thought about installing on fiberglass roof but would need reinforcing due to heaviness of them. Plus leary of snagging them upon tree limbs. Probably will mount them to brush guard with a home fabricated bracket to avoid...
