I've been on this forum for a while now, and it's great. I have received tons of help from knowledgeable, friendly people. I try to make a regular habit of going on and answering other members questions as best I can. But I want to take "giving back" to another level. I've started this thread to list off things that I know about from experience, and invite members to PM me for help with these things so that I can help them out and we can make useful threads together (with pics and all) for everyone. I invite everyone to do the same on this thread, and hope that it could become sort of like a "phone book" for who knows about what, so we all know who to ask about stuff.
Lets try to keep it easy to read, by stating what machine you've worked on as a heading, followed by what you know about on it.
CUCV: (specifically M1009)
glowplugs
lift (low pressure fuel) pump
water pump replacement
electrical repair
heater repair
power steering (pump, linkages, hoses, etc)
brake booster
transmission flush / adjustment
changing all fluids
fuel additives
air filters
33" tires
intake manifold removal / install
pulley replacement
fan replacement
coolant / engine cooling system
block heaters / cold weather preparedness
accessory brackets, belts, alternators, front end of engine
sensors, all the silly extra wires
fuel filter base repair
fuel filter replacement set up - spin on
fuel lines replacement
rad leak repair
starting problems
driving problems
strange noises
radio installation (both FM and CB)
interior luxuries (heated seats, extra gauges, carpet, dashboard, etc)
tailgate repair
Small engines: (generators, lawnmowers, snowblowers, pressure washers, etc.)
Carburetor
engine rebuilds
electrical
getting running
governor
modification
I'd be happy to help anyone with all of the above. I'm sure there's more I've forgotten. Will edit as I think of things.
Also experienced in redneck on the fly repairs.. EX: plugging holes in fuel filter base with pieces of hockey puck cut up with a pocket knife to get home, using parts of a bicycle found in dumpster to fix leaky heater hose to get home, repairing cheap chinese generator with old snowblower engine parts (from a different brand) that outlasted a friends honda, etc, etc
Also, I live in Winnipeg, MB, Canada. If you're close by and need help - PM me.
Thanks again to everyone! and GOOD LUCK!![Git-r-done :grd: :grd:](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/images/smilies/grd.gif)
