    Voltmeter issues after changing belts

    I would say batteries need replacing just based on age. They both work fine nothing odd there. Front battery charging at 14.07. And rear battery is at 14.77. Totaling 28.84. So gauge reads a bit high it’s telling me 29/30….hmmm. Gauge issue I’m thinking

    Coolant issue!!

    Ya checked the bypass again and no issue….I don’t believe I over tightened the belts. I did forget to mention I did put new belts on as the others ones didn’t have much life left in them. I’m guessing the new belts were enough to cause an leak perhaps. Honestly won’t really know unless I start...

    Coolant issue!!

    I have looked around and can’t find anything pertaining to my problem. Bought a M1008 and noticed that the hoses were looking a little rotted or swollen. So I decided to replace heater, core lines, upper and lower hoses. Bypass hose, etc.. put a new overflow tank and refill the radiator...

    Voltmeter issues after changing belts

    hahahaha. Love it!!! It will have a proper ceremony to recognize it’s long service. That being said….I did purchase a ISSPRO 24v gauge. Oddly enough did not come with instructions. Anyone have an idea how I should wire it. I got it as was suggested to someone else in another post I read. That...

    Voltmeter issues after changing belts

    Forgive my ignorance. Are you talking about the fuse box under the dash? I checked a few ( not all) and the ones I checked were fine. I will check the rest today. I tried looking for a manual that list what fuse is for what being that the fuse box is no longer legible. But can’t seem to find...

    Voltmeter issues after changing belts

    Trying to remember…I do think there was a little sparkle on the driver side alt…I recall calling my self a dumbass for not disconnecting the batteries…. I tested the alternators and seems to be charging. GEN 1 and Gen 2 lights come on when starting and go out when started. This is my first...

    Voltmeter issues after changing belts

    So I just changed the belts on my m1008. This sucked but was able to get everything fairly tight. I went to start the truck and everything was normal. Took it around the block came home and shut the truck off. Checked oil and what not went to start it and notice the voltmeter has no movement...
