    Coolant Dripping off Oil Pan

    Leak at front of pan could be pump weep hole, a couple of pump mount bolts go through the water jacket and require sealant. I've even had a cracked water crossover pipe, at the mounting flange. Run it, get it hot, you should be able to trace the source.

    Fuel delivery issues

    When you remove lift pump, fuel does drain back to the tank, so it takes longer to bleed. Yes, you can pressurize the tank with low psi to bleed the filter, either with a rag around nozzle at filler or through the return line on IP. Alternatively you can use a brake bleeding device attached to...

    mechanical fuel pump removal on 6.2L

    I'm also for retaining the mechanical pump. I can see the convenience of installing an auxiliary electric in-line pump for bleeding purposes, but for main fuel delivery I prefer to keep the simple stock mechanical system. I've replaced mine more than a few times in the past 10 years. First time...

    engine control fuse issues

    There is a diode on the water in fuel sensor circuit. Apparently, it's taped up to prevent shorts, so maybe something to check out.

    Lope at idle

    I believe the target is set in park. It states what the idle should be on the air cleaner. In gear, someone with tach said they saw a 100 rpm drop.

    Engines in the CUCV?

    What Oil and Filter do you use?

    Wix 51061 and Rotella T 15W40. Ten years ago I used a Fram PH5 then a TG5, until I checked an oil filter comparison article that stated Fram were junk. Switched to the Wix which is also Napa Gold 1061.

    New M1008. Many different issues.

    You've done bushings in the field? What do you drive, a contact truck full of tools. Do tell us how you remove the 2 end bushings with an acorn and a hickory stick.

    leaking fuel injector

    On a members recommendation I bought my return line from Badger Diesel. Made in Germany, does not require the clamps. Only $15.00.

    I had a Carter lift pump fail after only 13 months, leaked at the seam. Use AC Delco.

    New M1008. Many different issues.

    Maybe its not necessary, but I always put some never seize on my glow plugs. As for that starter 2 year warranty, most never even get to 2 years before they die. Think about the hassle of breaking down on the middle of nowhere, another re&re, paying shipping again, just to receive another sub...

    New M1008. Many different issues.

    Unless your truck has been converted to 12V, you need a 24 V starter. You're much better off getting your original 27MT direct drive rebuilt, if that's what you have now. They are very heavy duty. The pic shows the difference between the direct drive, on the left-fatter case and the gear...

    I think my transmission is smoked?!?!

    When my transmission went, truck started shaking wildly going up a hill near my house and then would only proceed at a crawl speed. Went to a specialist tranny, diff shop that everyone local recommended. It was toast, parts of torque converter had come apart, metal bits everywhere inside. Was...

    New to CUCV: Question about buying a truck: Diesel fuel leak

    Your M1008 goes 65 with the stock 4.46 gears? Do you mean M1009?

    What is the current draw of the glow plugs?

    See if this is better ;

    What is the current draw of the glow plugs?

    Wow, that chart is so small its unreadable. How can I re-size that so its at least legible? There are 4 charts altogether, if someones interested. Here's the amp vs time chart ;
