I wait for it to kick down,I like to let the tranny get a little temp. to it,I also like to let the gpr get finished cycleing,and let the batteries get a little juice recovered,I was under my truck the other day ,while it was running and touched my arm to the down pipe,if it was a gas truck I...

I bought these trucks almost 10 years apart...
before you start spraying stuff,bleed your fuel filter,I would track down the sizzeling sound. And the solinoid on the firewall is your GP relay ,your GPcontroller card is under the dash in a plastic box ,pull your card and inspect it ,look for burned componets or traces,smell it ,that might...
few years ago I came out of a grocery store and there's a cucvll ,with a couple of hippy dippies in it ,I stare in amazement,its registered and full of junk,I say (stuttering)you have a cucv ll,he says its a army truck,whered you get it (mouth hangin open),from a friend , this guy had no idea...
I think the first thing to start with is grounds,then look under the dash for thoes 3M connectors the kind you tap power off of other wires with,good as I can guess 4000 miles away,clean fuse contacts?
I bought a used one off of ebay ,"worked in my truck"... well my truck would not run at all,absolutely no visual damage,it wouldnt start or run or anything
thanks I was trying to figure out what wire is the negative on the #2 system.as far as the GPRI figured the isolation was on acount of electric,thinking the old style was not insulated from the case,and the new ones were isolated from the case
A couple of more things I dont quite understand ... is there a ground wire going to/from the Pass. side alternator?...and my truck has the original GPRelay,with big rubber gromets inorder to insulate it from the body,but the upgrade GPR is usualy screwed directly to the firewall,what gives? THANKS
Warthog...bullseye...I sawped my 2 lights and GEN#1 light started working,that was the first thing I tested,and visualy the filimint was intact,but this time I got no continuity,now Im on to the #2 side,Im getting exciter voltage so I think I need a rebuild kit. The m-1008 has 27,000 miles and...
thanks to both you guys,Im going to investigate the dash and wires leading that direction ,I think by circuit board you are refering to the back of the insturment cluster,Im on it,thanks again
no juice at the GEN#1 brown wire with key on ,everything else checked out,#2 altinator is intermitant,I think that alt is bad ,I think #1 alt is not getting exciter voltage,I need to follow that circuit,any suggestions,Thanks
batteries sitting there 12.5 each
charging 14.7-27
when i got the truck the amp guage didnt work,then it started working between the yellow and green ,#1 light would come on at start ,but not #2 light ,then I got the #2 system working ,"all was good"the guage stayed around the top of the green,then #2 stoped working ,putting guage back to...
my GEN#1 light has always worked perfectly,my GEN#2 light has been intermitant,bad Alt. I think,so I asked my neighbor to test and see if Alt.#2 was putting anything out,VOM meter,red to red,I told him to ground to #2 battery,NOT TO THE TRUCK,so what did he imediatlly do,ground it to the truck...
