    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Finally got the engine reassembled after having the IP rebuilt and addressing a valve cover leak. If runs better with the refreshed injection pump. No leaks and no issues during shakedown run this evening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cold weather Starting?

    A grill cover is also a good idea for cold temperature running. Easy enough to fab up with cardboard etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cold weather Starting?

    Make sure your lift pump and cold weather IP advance circuit is operational. Also check your glow plugs. If you want a block warmer they are available for the 6.2/6.5L from Katz and other manufacturers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HMMWV Intake manifold port matching today before reassembly. Heads are very close on my 998 and did not need any matching. If so that of course would require upper end r&r. Example of amount of excess material/flow restriction prior to cut/blend. Finished work with some throat blending into...

    Boredom project, LB7 dirtymax turbo on a 6.2

    I need to replace the main seal on my 6.2 998 as well. Looks like you disconnected the starter per the TM but tied it up to avoid the full lift back into position? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Front springs needed, opinions on snow plow springs

    Replied above [emoji1369]. I run plow springs on my 998 on road and they are just fine for me in regards to ride quality. Rough roads or off road likely a different story... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M998 6.2l plugged valley drain

    I’ve searched through the old threads and found that the military plugged the valley drain on some engines. That’s the case with my 6.2 L. It looks like there’s a steel dowel or plug in the valley drain I’m curious if this has been hammered/epoxied in or whether it’s NPT threaded and it...

    The oil line routing near the head looks like a possible abrasion point? Great work so far! [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    The bushings on my 998 are loose. I get a good amount of deflection through the bushings while moving the suspension for and aft. I’ve been looking at the Energy Suspension bushings and I’m curious if anybody on the board has had positive experience using urethane bushings in the HMMWV. Sent...
