This is a video of the truck with high oil pressure....over 65psi at idle. This was two weeks ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m846OhAjMI8&feature=youtu.be

Spent some time on the truck today, I removed the drivers side valve cover and found out why it was leaking....who ever did the job before got part of the fiberglass from the firewall pinched between the cover and the head. I also replaced the injectors and glow plugs. Only thing left to do is...

$9.69 ea down here in South Florida at NAPA.... It shows Product Line: Balkamp.....Part Number: BK 6021179 http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?R=BK_6021179_0409072313

Worked on the truck some today. I removed the turbo to get the valve cover off. Looks like someone had put a new valve cover on(they must of damaged the old one taking it off). I cleaned the old RTV off and replaced the cover with Black RTV. I replaced the old injectors with new ones also. Got...

I did just that when we went to Camp Atterbury, IN for 21 days. I slept in the truck at night in the motorpool, then drove it around during the day. There were so many Soldiers at Atterbury that they didn't have enough bed space. My troops had to move 6 different times in the first 10 days.

Had to pickup one of our M915A5's this morning from the dealer. It went in for A/C issues. Lol...they said I couldn't do it alone. I used my toe-bar and M1009. Picked it up on the way to work. Sorry for the bad picture. We have about 10,000 miles on each tractor now. Been hauling a lot of...

Just a thought, I had my M1031 pull to the right do to different size tires on rear. Left/Rear was new and the Right/Rear was at about 40%. Replaced the used tire with another new one and this fixed the pulling when giving it fuel going down the road.

I like it....:drool:

I've had the best luck with the "Ultra Black" RTV. I let it set over night for a good seal. Never had a leak. I use to use "Red" RTV and "Gray" RTV. But not anymore.

I might just do that if I can get the oil leaks fixed. Still waiting on the title from GL.

You have to get a small 2x4 and lay it on the top side of the valve cover and hit it with a BIG hammer a few times. That will break the gasket loose.

Took some time to look at this today, I put the compression tester that I got from Kenny on the #2 cylinder and it only went up to 260 ft lbs. The other cylinders are around 385 ft lbs. Looks like I have to pull the engine and remove the head to see what happened.:-(

I should be done with buying anymore CUCV-II's unless it a Suburban or Blazer type with 6.5L turbo. Saving for a LSSV's now.:drool: Bruce, you still want an extra set of LED headlights ? There at my kids place in MD.

A little update: I have a few external oil leaks. 1. One is at the oil cooler line that goes into the oil cooler in front of the rad. 2. Looks like I have oil leaking from the valve covers(mostly on drivers side) I may have a bad CDR valve that is over-pressurizing the crankcase. I'll replace...

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?68750-CUCV-II-2000-Crew-Cab Its big brother came out of Barstow, CA.....that was a long recovery. Thanks for all the background on the trucks everyone, always cool to know where your MV's have been.

The picture of the oil filter shows the hole. Looks like the last oil change was 25-Apr-2011 at 78,627 miles. It now shows 81,998 miles. Going to have to start working on its big brother soon.

You guys are tracking my MV' very closely...lol Good info.

Map shows Naval Air Station, North Island, San Diego, CA. Replaced the oil filter, started it up, checked for leaks(no leaks), drove it around in the parking lot, AC blows COLD :-D, let it run for 30 min and everything looks good. So far a nice truck. i took a video of engine running, will...
