    CUCV M1009 Media Center

    I am really enjoying my M1009 and thanks to the guys at the Lone Star Military Vehicle Preservation Association, I have had a chance to let others enjoy it also. While I enjoy the moan of the 6.2 under the hood, I felt it was time to get some of my E-lec-tronic doohickies in the truck. I did...

    GPR109 installed, GP controller card hot

    The GPR109 I got from NAPA most certainly did have I & S marked on it. It may have got put in the wrong box. I went ahead and bit the bullet and got the powerstroke relay. I am going to let the card stay in as long as it's working. I have wire, terminals and a switch in my "oh ****" box to...

    GPR109 installed, GP controller card hot

    The orange wire was/is on the output side of the relay. I let the motor cool down and I reinstalled the stock relay and it all works, including the wait light. I still am not sure just what happened with so many people running the GPR109 but mine was having issues for sure.

    GPR109 installed, GP controller card hot

    This morning after starting the motor, I was looking under the hood and noticed the stock GPR post moving about a 1/4 inch every time it energized during the afterglow cycle. I figured it was time to change it. After diving into the FAQ, I went to NAPA and purchased a GPR109 and installed it...

    Suggested 6.2 oil, fuel additives, and cleaners products and frequency

    So if I read that article correctly, I should carry some biodiesel in my 5gal can and put 1 gallon in when I fill up for the best results? edit: Actually, I need to carry B100 in my jerry can and put 1/2 gallon (60 oz) in with every fillup...

    Whre does the idiot light connect?

    You know, I just logged on to see if I could find this info. I installed a gauge tonight and was wondering where to put the probe and if disconnecting the idiot light would mess things up.

    M1009 wheel question

    If GM made a 16" hub centric wheel then I could find some used. I just didnt want to waste a lot of time and I figured someone here would know. I picked up a set of 15" rally wheels for $10/wheel last weekend to use for spares in case mine get damaged.

    M1009 wheel question

    Did GM make a steel, 16 inch wheel that would fit the Hub Centric setup on the M1009? The reason I ask is it is almost impossible to find used 15" tires these days. I can get 285-75-16's (33's) all day long for rock bottom prices. It would be worth it to me to switch to a 16" steel wheel.

    My contribution to all cucv owners

    Dont quote me on this, but I think there are some insulating washers where the ground lug connects to the case, thus isolating the lug from the case.

    My contribution to all cucv owners

    They actually had a 100amp alternator in the 1975 Caddy and it fits JUST fine. The pulley is just a hair smaller so you have to tighten it up a little more, but it runs just fine... Cosmetically it is identical but has no isolated ground. I will see if I can get the part number. I got it at...

    U-Joint on the rear driveshaft yoke?

    We used the P534G from Napa. Had to hone out the holes a very little bit, but it fit and works great. The part number crosses for a 1 ton Dodge truck.
