With the colder weather many of us find out ghat their ether system is empty. I know ether is not the best thing for the engine and I read something like one can use a propane torch to warm the intake air. I read that one can use a engine heart system in the FMTV Who here uses one and what are...

I had this m1009 cutvee sitting around waiting to be restored and now its time has come. The minucipality i had this truck from did some funky wiring with a push button start. I like things to work as intended and want to return it to the original set up. Checked the starter switch and neutral...

Thanks for reallocating my thread with someone elses , whoever did that. Much appreciated

When i push the ether start button. Dors it make a noise , like a hiss or so? if it does then my bottle is empty, because i don't hear anything. Master on, of couse and push the bomb button for 3 secs

Good point porky today i started the truck without ether. Took a bunch of cranks. tomorrow ill try pushing that button for 3 secs wait 3 secs and then try to start the engine. See if it does any better. But yes you are right, i dont know if it is indeed empty, for sure yet.

Yeah , what about refilling them? I wondered what the big issue with that is? Seems to have a standard valve.

Ether system I got to get the ether bottle replaced. Is there a common part number and does it screw right in or do i have to make modifications?

I read that wrong, i thought you said you fix ctis ECU's on a regular basis no problem then.

We were asking about what this easy to find part was that you replaced. Its been posted here already by me of how to remove the potting. But you said these units are easy to repair, but you didn't share with the group what you did to remedy the problem.

I posted a link to a completed listing on ebay, where this truck sold for 23k it was a 1995 . Not an active listing . However someone gave me an infraction and deleted the link SMH. It was a completed auction, i want to put that out in the open once again. People are a bit trigger happy lately.

The listing states that one sold and one is available. So I know as much as you do. But I assume that means it sold. At least that is what the words say.

I doubt i could get a m1084 for 12k

So will i be avle to sell a m1083 for 12.5k in the next 3 months?

Good insight thank you

Any vehicle i purchase,i buy with the ability of selling it with a profit when i am done with it. Im not really interested in tous, it has to have a fuction to me.

I saw a 1995 m1078 sold on ebay for $23.k

How is it then that a m1078 sells for 23.k and a much better truck is not worth that much? Are people worried about the CDL?

Im being offered a 1997 m1083 mtv with 21.k miles. Looks to be in good condition. is that s good price in your opinion?

I sprayed mine tan only because it was that way when I got it and its just easier to paint in the same color. But i hated it every sencond of it.

How about SC
