    M1088 with 4 (Four) leads into the battery box

    Both my 12 volts Positives are tied together at the back of the Box nearest the frame. I do see something different from the sticker but mine does not have the sticker and they were Military installed ones. I will study the picture more and manual. I know it all works fine. Might be I am only...

    Anyone know why?

    Chevys lost starters due to high heat then went with a shield. Are you missing a shield?? Loose bolts hard on starters hot engines start hard also. Timing off if a Gas Engine.

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    Aired it up to 58 lbs and it held over night. Changed my batteries out to 4 new ones and got rid of the bad one in the group. Save those for 12 volt vehicles that may need one or just sell the 3 Red Top and recoup some money. Going for a drive today in the fresh snow when the dun comes out!

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    Just like they said O-Ring leaking. I have it fixed now and it did not leak so right now I have 30 PSI in it for a test. After a couple hours I will check it hoping it was not leaking in another spot?

    Picture of your Battery Box?

    The meds Prednisone are kicking in now if the sun came out I would fix my Leakey tire. Saw the Doctor he said the lung will fill up as my guts empty more. Feeling a little better at this point. Excited to fix my truck so that is a plus!

    Picture of your Battery Box?

    Found the leak tonight with soapy water it is coming from a bad O-Ring on the tube going into the rim. The 90 that screws onto it is leaking. I will change the O-Ring and put a little sealant on the threads just incase.

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    OK it is the O-Ring that is leaking inside the outside part that screws onto the end of the tube coming out of the rim.

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    I I just thought that part screwed in? I guess it is a compression fit. I did not see the tires going together.

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    Bummer that is a real hard project for me right now. I have a hard time just walking to my truck right now can't breath right!! So it is a compression of the rubber to the rim edge. I was surprised seeing in the old tires very clean and the tire guy told me no rust at all, easy to change them...

    My M1078 RearTire keeps going flat?

    Just went out and since the axle is on a jack stand you can't see it flat. Checked the pressure 5 lbs in it and flat again. Filled it back up and sprayed soapy water on parts. First part I did was the fill hose that keeps the tires full of air. The fitting going into the rim is leaking. Looks...
