I have adopted a HMMWV M998 that has severe engine problems. And the worst part is I did not cause the problems or disassemble the parts from the engine. I know my way around a CUCV a little. Any way let me introduce you to my adopted HMMWV.
Not bad from this point of view![DSCF6877.jpg DSCF6877.jpg](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/425/425248-77ab830a10d56dbb6242082dcab39009.jpg)

The problem was it was bought with a bad engine. My Son was going to change the engine. The weather/personal life and his work got the best of him and it just kept getting pushed to the side. It is NOT mine but I like it and wanted to make the HMMWV step up and learn some things about them. They look very simple and easy to work on. I will need some help/direction once I set the new engine in place and go to hook everything back up on this abused / neglected HMMWV. Just look. I torched the connecting rods from the crank shaft and removed all the main bearings just so I could get the 6 torque converter bolts out. The engine was junk and I did not want to chance damaging the front pump on the transmission. So I worked a little harder. What else is new? I will post more. The owner is watching me. The engine is just sitting under the hood because of gravity.
