    My Engine Smoked....

    Well, my Smell-A- Vision app is not working. After the dramamine tab I popped... my guess, maybe the air compressor pump was on and no fluid / refrigerant / oil in the systems. Second guessing...Hope it wasn't a starter stuck / engaged. Maybe the wire harness on that side. Should know when the...

    Fan stuck ON

    Was it a 39 dollar switch or a 150 dollar switch? HumV's love to spend your money, CAMO Does it look like this "BLUE" tag.

    Anyone have a pic of the inside top of a 6.2 injection pump?

    Listen to the pump guy. Clear hose and looking for bubbles could be an indicator of air in the housing. The housing operates completely full (at pressure) from the bottom to the top of the housing regulator little ball thingy. (The 100 dollar part on sale now at amazon LOL) Pumps being...

    "Unless i’m missing something.. and I very well could be.. the only thing the “Cold Advance Solenoid” physically does is open and close the check valve." On the surface...there's more to it than that. While to many ?? it looks to be a check valve... BUT it is a regulator (5 to 15 psi) with the...

    EYEBALL👁 view of one kind of gunk in the fuel tank picture. This stuff was like very cold honey. Super sticky. That was a new tank two years ago. Want ta see more? :roll: A total fuel system mess throughout, CAMO .....👀

    Anyone have a pic of the inside top of a 6.2 injection pump?

    My guess is the metering valve is all gummed up or sticking rusted advance lever and seals. Pumps are precision like a fine watch working at + 2000 psi injection pressures. Supply pressures of 3 - 7 psi OK. Lift pump should be able to fill 16 oz water bottle in 3 or 4.... 20 second cranking...

    Thermostat fan switch temperature ranges?

    Yep... Who said HumV's were a cheap car club hobby? Here's the real deal. No blue tag... NO GO. And YES bring a bag of money.💰 A dollar saved.. three spent, CAMO

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Not looking to rain on the parade of new work... BUT, been there, done that. Coolant Surge Tank - Reservoir - Overflow & 2000 HMMWV M1123 Project Real coolant tanks have soldered joints at the neck and are made of brass... not shinny fake steel. Got a magnet ? CAMO

    MY guess. Check the solenoids... Fuel and cold advance. They have plastic housing parts that could have come loose. Electrical feed thur insulators are plastic or hard fiber too.. All the other parts are metal. And we thought HumV's were heavy metal. CAMO

    HMMWV won't start, transmission light is on

    Good talking with you on your start / glow issues. Sure, you can build one or buy one. Just like a HUMMWV, CAMO
