    Voltmete sometimes doesnt go all the way up..

    loose belt sounds like the belt loosened up as it set in the pulleys..... Do the deflection test and see how it feels. Can't help on the pump leak, as I haven't experienced yet.....

    M1009 passenger seat cable

    The business end is the other one I looked at my seat release and noticed the same as you. I took the thing apart and put it back together at least twice without any better performance and then I thought what if the problem was at the at the seat release and the pushbutton was correct...

    Rear main oil seal leak?

    TM -34P shows 2 part seal Page 3-1 in -34P shows item 7 as a two part seal, so looks like the method I mentioned will work..... I dig up the article and post it in here. I realize the 6.2 is probably a little heavier than the 350 that the article mentions but still sounds doable for a weekend...

    Rear main oil seal leak?

    seal is failing.... won't heal itself I recently found an article about changing the rear main seal without removing engine from vehicle. The article was for a civvy model C30, but I think the concept would be the same. Don't remember where I saw it, but will see what I find. In a nutshell it...

    Still question why "too long"? I tried to upload pictures of mine but no luck.... digital camera with high res setting.... trying to decrease pixels and try again. The cable is same as yours but working fine.

    Crank pulley and belt replacement?

    Hate to do this, but read the TM...... It is very clear on the correct procedure to replace belts. the -20. The -20 is operator / unit level maintenance level. I think the -34? the Direct Support (DS) TM will detail the correct procedure to remove the crank pulley and balancer. The balancer...

    So what's the heat level, in cab, from your m1009?

    I don't have anything but bare metal in mine and I've never noticed excessive heat. It's been 90+ the last week or so and I drive it during the heat of the day on the weekends. I'm gonna put a temp probe on the sheetmetal next time I drive and see what I get.....

    So what's the heat level, in cab, from your m1009?

    Too many variables to get a "quick" diagnosis, but do what CUCVCAN suggests. If you have not changed the fluid and filter since you bought the truck its always recommended. Unless you have maintenance records showing when it was changed. The CUCV's trans cooler is adequate for the truck and...

    Oops.... put a tee fitting in at the transmiter location as the idiot light is good thing..... just incase you aren't actively watching the gauges during your drive..... or you lend the truck or ........

    cucv 6.2 diesel

    Look at the TM!!!![thumbzup] There is a oil pressure transmitter at the rear of the block on the drivers side. I suggest however you go with an electrical gauge. The chance of getting a hot oil bath from a failed oil line run into the cab is not a good thing.:shock:

    Illegal to pump your own???? I have two more states I won't be visiting in the near future..... Are these "pumpers" or "fuel handlers" licensed and regulated by the gov'ment? Shakespeare was RIGHT!!
