    Glow plug sequence question

    I hear the glow plug relay kicking on and off, I just wondered how many on/off cycles and how long. if its cycling after the wait light goes out do you even need to turn key off/on? I just changed out my m1008's glow plugs and found the fire dept? had changed some/all, none of the old glow plugs...

    Glow plug sequence question

    Alternator Overcharging maybe?

    Check the plug at the voltage regulator, if the voltage sensing wire is broke/whatever it will charge wide open

    former firetruck m1008 paint

    I have a m1008 I purchased from GSA and it was a brushtruck for a rural fire department. My question is do I just hit the red paint with a DA sander and repaint or do I need to do something more?

    M1008 Engine noise

    Got my m1008 out today and went for a ride and the engine noise at 55 was crazy! Granted its been 20 something years since I last rode in one but wow! its shifting and the transfer case is in high. Normal?
