    Is it better to change to 12V starter or stay 24V?

    28MT starter, No thanks..I prefer the direct drive 27MT. The reason GM went to the gear reduction was cost savings and thats it. Not because they were better.

    GLOW PLUGS - M1008/6.2 Detroit

    Anyone ever wire in a cold advance / high idle manual disable / bypass?

    I have mine wired manually to an illuminated rocker switch. Did it because the system kicks down quickly, and there's a hill right by my house. The motor felt like it could use a little bit more on the cold advance, certainly goes better there, than with it kicked off. As soon as I'm up that...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Ahh..what? I have no issue with you regarding THAT..unfortunately $600 shipping to Canada was ridiculous. You said to give you a call if I could get a US address. So then, I finally found someone who had a US freight forwarding address across the border and would bring it back up for me. Sent...

    Why are CUCV prices so much higher that Civi Chevs

    I read ; only 3% of all civy blazers made were diesels. This also ; 1982 - 9,438 diesel Blazers 1983 - 7,176 diesel Blazers 1984 - 4,230 diesel Blazers - also 23,000 military diesel Blazers 1985 - 2,100 diesel Blazers 1986 - 1,260 diesel Blazers 1987 - 310 diesel Blazers 1988 - 270 diesel...

    Broken Accelerator Cable

    Does any one know if a broken cable can be taken in and fixed at a bicycle shop? They should be able to swage ferrules on a new cable to a desired length.

    How to plumb and auxiliary heater in my M1009

    In addition to having to throw my rear seat out as it was full of turds. The heater box had turds dropping out when I hit it with a vacuum. Took it apart, there was a mouse nest in it with a dead mouse jammed in the blend door.

    Broken Accelerator Cable

    First time I've seen that part number ;15674368. It shows for years 1988-1993. Can someone who orders one, confirm it fits? I've always gone by the # 14038644.

    CDR bolt size

    Anyone know the size of the two bolts that hold the CDR valve onto its bracket? One of mine has a bad thread, there' a zap strap there now. Checked the good bolt, looks to be a Metric 8x1.25, but the die won't thread on. Cant figure it out.

    No engine to bell housing support?

    Mine didn't have them either. Was told they are necessary along with the long support rod that goes to side of transfer case. Figured the Military didn't spec them to save a few dollars. Sourced the pieces at a wrecker, there are a few different sizes out there. So had to modify the two bell...

    M1009 Throttle Cable Problems (can't find right part)

    I was lucky that a member here had NOS cables for sale within the last year or so, search the threads you should find it. sorry, cant remember his name. Is it possible to take the cable to a bicycle shop and have them install a new wire with ends in the casing?

    6.2 oil filler tube making a mess

    Yes, there is a large rubber grommet that seals the tube to water pump block-off plate. You don't have a CDR? Maybe you should think about getting one, its function is to keep a light vacuum against the engine seals. The 6.2 was designed to operate this way. You're asking for more oil leaks...

    Cucv oil cooler mount

    I'm assuming its a transmission cooler. The internal rad mounted cooler is less than optimal as it can only "cool" the ATF to 195 degrees. The shop that rebuilt my transmission, installed an auxiliary cooler. It was mounted to the radiator with some kind of straps that wrapped around the cores...
