It has nothing to do with being period correct. How about cranking a high compression diesel over on a cold morning?

I've been thinking of replacing mine. Is that wire shown on the video for cruise control? If so, as CUCV's wouldn't have one, I assume we don't have to deal with the wire. It looks like he just pulls straight out. I'm wondering why CUCVRUS said to "push in and turn it towards you." Is this some...

Nothing whatsoever, its dictated by a temperature sensor.

Going by the 1/2 w rating on other threads. I picked up some 300 Ohm 1 watt resistors. I see that you said do not go lower than 2. Why is that?

So I read someone used 2 150 ohm 1/2 w resistors. So, its not 5 w its .5 w? Or it doesn't matter - bigger is better?

Hey.. practically everything on my truck is used..man. So, did some reading here, seems that I could use a 5 w 300 ohm resistor. If one were to use 2 x 150 ohm resistors, are they still 5 w each and are they installed parallel or in series?

Happened first time about 7 years ago, changed out the relay, still nothing. A local CUCV guy sent me a used resistor that sits on the back of voltmeter. Worked until the other day. Does anyone have a working resistor kicking about that they could spare?

You said "Looked like a little leak up front". Did you check the source, it was likely the water pump weep hole and it finally went out on you. You should always inspect any leak, is is oil, water or fuel. Is is a critical immediate repair issue that would affect driveability or is it just a...

Our emissions testing stopped last year, but before that I had to take my CUCV in every year and pay $22 to have it tested. I asked the guy, have you ever failed a GM 6.2, he said no. I would change the air filter before going in, that's it. My 6.2 isn't the tightest, has some puffing when you...

From another thread ; The suppressors are for electrical noise suppression, it is just a capacitor. If you are not running radios they are not needed. the truck will work just fine without it.

I had a Carter lift pump fail after only 11 months. You could see fuel leaking from around the sides where the lower metal section wraps around the upper aluminum part. The AC Delco replacement has been going for 4 1/2 years now.

The pink wire is on the top of the injection pump. Here's one thread; http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?114857-Bleeding-Injector-lines&highlight= Pull the pink wire to purge the filter. Then you must connect it to purge the IP and lines.

Wrong! Whilst I agree your theory sounds correct. I had this very experience myself, in 2WD w/hubs unlocked driving to work. Scary experience, having the steering do that coming out of a corner. Called a CUCV knowledgeable friend, explained the symptom and he said axle u-joints are seized. Took...

I'm with CUCVRUS, the axle u-joint binding absolutely happens in 2WD w/hubs unlocked. Happened to me. I believe you can try to turn the u-joint by hand and actually feel it binding.

I second this analysis.

Didn't read thru all your posts, but do either you or Miillman37 have the original fuel filter base. The fuel pressure sensor o-ring is a known culprit for this issue.

Should say ; 0 100 271 107 10.5V

Perhaps I wasn't clear. There is nothing wrong with the zerk, grease purges from 3 of 4 seals, I pumped a lot thru. Its one trunnion that doesn't purge.

Went to do the yearly lube of my axle u-joints and steering zerks. On drivers side I could not get one of the axle u-joint seals to purge. Tried rotating the seal, went out and drove in 4WD, turning lock to lock, but still no luck. Any ideas?

Looking at those numbers and comparing it to a Mitchell/KLM Automotive Frame Measuring Book. It doesn't seem to quite match any. Looking at column P on your chart, the KLM numbers are 48 1/8". Column R, the KLM numbers are 84 3/8". Here's a smaller picture, you can compare the measurements yourself.
