    Been sittin' awhile- How to start?

    out of the black plug that you take out unscrew the plug crank motor (fuel will come out of the hole) until you see no more air bubbles just straight fuel. put the plug back in and conect pink wire and start engine

    Been sittin' awhile- How to start?

    disconnect the pink wire on the injector pump (that keeps the engine from starting) and there is a black plug on top of the fuel filter housing unscrew it with a large flat screwdriver and have somone else crank engine until pure fuel (no air bubbles) replace plug, connect pink wire, and fire it up.

    M1008 brake master cylinder

    I need a brake master cylinder for my 1985 m1008. Is it the same as a civilian k30 with a 6.2 or is it a military specific part? i remember reading on the old site in the pm articles that there is a difference in the m1008 and m1009.
