    Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's

    Honestly, who cares? What is the purpose of all the guessing about Uncle Sam’s actions? They auction until it’s done. There are only 500,000 more to go.

    2002 M1123 4L80E Strange Shifting

    Throttle position sensor is on the injection pump assembly

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Nothing as good as cruising to “The World Famous Ramones”!!!! And yes, that song was and is about my home town. Thanks for the smile.

    REV overheating - normal?

    Start simple. Make sure you have enough radiator fluid and you don’t have a leak.

    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    When I crawled under mine, I was able to reach them.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Parks Department built a new multimillion dollar off the grid modern looking building by the beach. My buddy and I decided to go for a drive. We decided we should figure out what this place was. Honestly, it is a super expensive public toilet with a few water fountains and office space. What I...

    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    Loosen the injector hoses from underneath. Crawl under. Trust me.

    Cooling system upgrades

    Yes. And it is inferior to the HMMWV system. I own several HMMWV and I own my 1995 Hummer. I can say by experience that my HMMWV A0 through ECV REV A are universally superior. Temps when the fan is activated get lower in a flash. I can also use a switch to bypass the Cadillac valve to activate...

    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    Respectfully. Not all injectors get stuck OPEN. This method I described is exactly how I found a plugged/closed injector that needed replacement.

    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    As an explanation of Mogman post, you keep cracking injector fuel lines until you find the one that does not affect the cadence/tap. The bad injector line can’t push fuel through so loosening it can’t affect the engine rhythm.

    Cooling system upgrades

    Respectfully… 1-Military cooling upgrade kit requires pixie dust and Elvin magic. AMG woulda done it if it worked. 2-Unless your hydraulic system is missing or busted, nothing is wrong with the HMMWV cooling system as-is. That viscous system posted is only 80% maximal. Cannot lock up. It will...

    Log of my 1995 Hummer

    Today I swapped in new LED headlights. My vehicle had some type of upgrade. Halogen or Xenon. I have pictures. There was an energizer on the back of the lights and an extra power plug with a strange connector. It provided crap illumination. I swapped in Amazon $60 headlights I bought years ago...

    Log of my 1995 Hummer

    Found a great copilot.

    Log of my 1995 Hummer

    As a favor to Tor, I drove to deliver a replaced part from Tor to my friend George. Tor worked on his truck and replaced the steering gear. George owns three Hummer H1’s. Turned into a Hummer jamboree and photo op.

    Log of my 1995 Hummer

    Shaking her out, driving to work. New brakes catch/pulsate. Gonna see if a little wear smoothes them out. A/C drips. Gonna wait on fixing that until Autumn. Gonna rip off the rusting brush guard and weld up a new better one soon. Rusting roof rack has gotta go. I’ll keep the feet and weld up...

    Where is the Transmission Control valve located?

    Ok. In the future, always post the year of your vehicle and the transmission type and engine type. Might be good to put it in your signature. You have a turbo hydromatic 400. Totally mechanical transmission. That is the most bulletproof transmission ever manufactured by GM. Make sure your...

    Where is the Transmission Control valve located?

    Very low transmission fluid will do the same thing. Burnt out clutch pads will do the same thing. Best is to fill to full and follow the Tammy TM as previously posted for you.

    Where is the Transmission Control valve located?

    1-ensure transfer case is not in “L” 2-look up tranny tm and jumper J2 port A-E and write down the codes. (You will understand what I am talking about once you read the technical manual.) https://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachments/4l80e-transmission-troubleshooting-tcm-supplement_7-pdf.903367/

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Great work and awesome photos. I know what you mean about not enough hands. Years ago I confronted my parents as to why they never spent the extra moneys to have additional factory OEM arms with hands attached. Apparently they were pinching pennies as a young couple. I was a JC Penny blue...
