I have a question, how do you know if you received an sf-97? Is it the same thing as a TSC letter?

If I'm not mistaken, aren't golf cart batteries 6v each?

Thought I would give an update, maybe others can learn from my experiences. I got the tip out, the outcome was not ideal but I would say acceptable. Here was the process that did it. 1. Remove injector 2. Put a cotton ball through the injector port into the pre combustion chamber (read this...

I'm afraid to punch it until I get more of it drilled out. Reading other threads, looks like the tip in its whole length won't clear the pre-combustion chamber without breaking it. I'd like to drill out 1/4" before breaking it loose. Here is a picture of the 3/16" jig (top), the 13/64" reamer...

Plan A - regular drill bit. After about 3 minutes of actual drilling time I think I got 1/32 deep, not going so well. Plan B - carbide end mill. Will try this next. Plan C - diamond hole saw. I'm pretty sure this will eat through the glow plug tip (along with the cylinder head)

For those who have successfully drilled out a glow plug element, what worked best? I'm wondering if a long shank 3/16" end mill might be most effective using the hollowed out glow plug jig I made.

Good thread. I've used similar devices on RVs and have always wired them to the ground side of the circuit. There are different schools of thought, however. If you wire it to the ground side like I do, then the switch itself is not at risk of shorting out to the chassis. For example, if you...

I couldn't get the tip out. It is welded in with carbon chunks. I made a jig by drilling out another glow plug with a 3/16" bit and screwed it in, thinking I could drill the tip out without damaging the head. Unfortunately it is really hard to get leverage on a 90 degree drill given the...

I pulled the injector tonight, tomorrow I will try to extract the glow plug tip.

Will it over volt on the other 7? I was planning to put the threaded end back in to seal up. I just need to drive it to my backyard.

Was removing the glow plugs today and got to the one closest to the driver and unscrewed relatively easy, but to my sad surprise only had the threaded body. The element or tip appears to be in the port where it sits, likely swollen. One thought I had was to crank the engine and see if the...

Thanks, that link is very helpful. I was able to tow it off the street for now and I can take more time to troubleshoot. I do have a question, I can't figure out where this plug goes. I have a troop carrier and was suspecting it powered some kind of accessory in the rear.

No batteries. I did scrounge up two regular car batteries. It cranked with smoke coming out of the exhaust but would not fire up. Will be researching how to get it running. I need to drive it about 30 yards to its restoration location.

Thanks, will give it a shot, vehicle is being delivered on Sunday and "runs after jump starting" according to govplanet, its an '04 m1123

What's the recommended procedure for jump starting the HMMVW 24v? using 12V? I have two automotive 12v jump start battery packs and was thinking of putting each 12V pack in parallel of each 12V batterybattery. Another option is a single pack on one of the two batteries and hope it has enough...

Newer member here, been surfing the forum a while, have downloaded the TMs, and watched several hours worth of online videos. I was wondering what the core recommended restoration tasks are from other members? Which tasks are the highest priority to get a street-worthy vehicle?
