My son Colton is living his life 60 miles away with a job in a town 75 miles from there. We don’t get to see each other much and maybe talk every other week or so on the phone. Trying to keep him up to date on things I am doing is difficult. He suggested I just start doing videos of what I am...
Looks like fun. I camped in the Cowdog and M715 last weekend with my Trail Life Troop. Taught 22 little ones how to drive a manual. I am ready for next Friday.
Soapy water would probably work just fine. The stuff I have is called Big Blu micro leak detector for air conditioning. I was expecting at most a few small leaks. Not the massive things I had.
I pulled the CUCV 6.2 intake that night after I took the video. Then installed a 3 piece 6.5 center...
The last time fuel was this expensive this topic was very hot. Multi fuel trucks are fine with it. Mine loves used ATF. However, the DB-2 injection pump is not made for the thicker/more viscosity waste motor oil.
There was a super long and boring report done by the DOD after the Desert...
Repurposed vehicles of all types have been to the Rally in the past. There is a Rally swap meet thread already going so you won't have to lug stuff around that might not sell.
I think you are on the right track with the corrosion. How pliable where your "new" cups you put in? If they were a bit dry and crusty that could also be an issue.
There is a single ground path for the entire gauge cluster. All the rest are positive paths. If you are putting power to a circuit and the light isn't lighting. Verify voltage at the light contact and reverse the light bulb and try again.
That flexible printed circuit board needs a little voodoo or black magic mixed in to work correctly.
Make sure all the tabs for the big plug are straight, in their lane and clean.
You wrote you cleaned everything else.
Use a Power Probe or any 12 volt power supply to test every singe circuit...
Can you put an Ohm meter on the isolated ground post with one lead and on the case of the alternator with the other and not have continuity? Verify it really is an isolated ground alternator first.
The oil flows from the pan to the pump, filter, oil cooler lines and then the crankshaft bearings. Since you have added the dry oil cooler and lines. I think it would be a good idea to prime the system before you start it. A regular 8mm socket will fit the oil pump drive shaft. A 1/4" socket...
Upgrade for what purpose? If you want more oil capacity then a HMMWV oil pan for the 6.2 is your ticket. 2 gallons needed for an oil change. Just make sure it is a 6.2 oil pan. The 6.5 oil pans had a single piece rear main seal and the oil pan won't fit.
If some kind of oil cooling is your...
Do you like isometric exercises? Once you find a front wiring harness you will hate isometric exercises. Because to change out the harness you have to remove all the wire holders from the frame that have a bolt and a nut on them. That means you will be under the truck hugging the frame with...
