I remember a thread from years ago about the plate in the B pillar with a threaded hole. This plate is what the post screws into. The plate is also made to move so the post can be adjusted. The thread from years ago which I could not find today talked about how the plate could fall down into...

Your local NAPA store either has a 27MT nose cone in stock or can get one in a few days. They list for about $15. At least that is what I paid for one a few weeks ago at a NAPA. The -20 takes you through a rebuild step by step. 27MT rebuild parts are around $30 on the internet. The hardest...

Tie rod ends, tie rod, drag link, leaf springs, leaf spring mounts, pitman arm, rag joint and rear leaf spring mounts all could be causing this. Take it to an alignment shop to see what is out and then go from there. However, a helper, a ruler and measuring front to back on each side, front...

Loosen injector lines one at a time while the engine is running. Fuel should shoot out and the idle should drop. Just like pulling spark plug wires on a gasser. If you get a drop with every injector like I did. Then I would suggest pulling the IP return line check valve and making sure it...

We got Colton's track meet schedule yesterday. He has a meet the Friday night of the Rally. Looks like we will be showing up late instead of during the evening daylight.

I topped the truck off this morning and it actually still works. With the LMC sender, totally topped off and no room for any more fuel in the tank the gauge exactly covers up the hash at F. I have never had a square body Chevy where F actually meant full. They always go past full and need 100...

If you can't find the yellow gear, pull your reduction box and very carefully cut a strip of aluminum foil that can make 1 or 2 wraps around the male part that goes into the yellow gear. I used a dab of super glue on mine. Mine was doing the same thing as yours and I greased or replaced...

I have owned one of my M1009's almost 3 years now. I think the fuel gauge has worked correctly about 2 weeks of that time. When I first got it, the needle pointed waaay past F and never moved. The previous owner said it had worked sometimes. I followed what the manual said: 29. FUEL GAGE...

I had a swollen one a few months ago on an engine still in the can. I ran the engine for 30 seconds or so, unscrewed the swollen plug until I could turn and wiggle it. Fired the engine up and let it run for 30 seconds or so revving it up and it didn't come out. I used vice grips with a slide...

A 7/8" open end between the return barbs on the injector is a lot easier with the back ones to tighten it down. Loosen the lines and turn the engine over. Any air will come out. If you are trying to track down a single cylinder not working right, start the engine and loosen them one at a...

A 3/4" or 19MM will get the line loose from the injector.

More than likely, it is something to do with the pump. Unplug the two green wires at the IP and also unhook the throttle cable. Make sure the throttle is all the way closed and the fast idle solenoid isn't frozen on somehow. It will be harder to start cold, but fire it up and see what...

Colton and I will be camping at BVOR Friday night. I hope I didn't step on too many toes with my two post above Lincoln. I was trying not to.

A non runaway but not shutting off 6.2 is easy to kill by pinching the return line at the top of the IP. This is in reply to the last few post about ignition switch issues. It won't help with contaminated air supply run away issues.

Carnac, There will be a huge crowd at the open house. Hundreds if not thousands of people. A few vendors only show up for Saturday morning. The real enthusiast will walk the vender field over and over and over again. If you have something they want. Showing up Saturday morning will work...

Here is the BMJP schedule: http://www.mullinsjeepparts.com/news What we have done the last 2 years is this: Arrive and camp at BVORR Friday afternoon and evening. Leave BVORR around 0900 Saturday in convoy for the Brent Mullins swap meet. (All the killer deals are gone Thursday afternoon...

We will be at the Brent Mullins Swap meet and show. The convoy there and back will be around 10 miles each way Saturday. Those that have never seen the BMJP re enactment will want to stay for that. Bring portable chairs, a hat and water. Lots of water. There have been several food vendors...

I left Friday afternoon to take my Scouts on a camp out. We hiked a mile or so Friday, camped, hiked 12 miles into the middle of nowhere Saturday, camped and then back Sunday. I had intermittent cell signal and just turned my phone off except to check text ever few hours. One of my Scout...

Osut362 is in Lindale. Super nice guy that has a M715 and a huge amount of knowledge.

You can get within 5 years of build date by looking at a long combination of small things. Such as how the motor mounts are held to the frame, flat firewall or curved, where the speedo cable comes through the tunnel cover, etc... But, no you can't tell exactly who made the truck without a data...
