Hello, The Timing Gauge DRF 35169 DIESEL TIMING GAUGE - NAN 4910-01-231-3671 is just about unavailable anywhere and if/when, then heavily overpriced for what it is. Anyone know the dimensions? Distance between center of the strobe tube and the 0 Degrees mark? Once this is verified I plan to...

Hi GringelTaube, Thanks for that!! I finally found my son's little Bosch Laser Measuring tool and when measuring in multiple spots, this gives a reading of predominantly 395mm as well with one spot at 396mm, so 395mm +- 0.5mm is definitely right. Unfortunately this laser tool does not measure...

All, Been doing a little bit of testing this morning. And simply stacking the rim halves on each other indeed does allow for quite some residual play. Thank you for your wise words GringelTaube. For details on free play, see attachment video. When adding 3 short plastic rings the play is...

Gruss dir Gringeltaube, Thank you for the advice!! I was planning on fabricating a static vertical wheel hub anyways to help in aligning and centering when the rim offset is being changed. WIll check for out of round as well; did not expect this to be an issue, but ounce mounted on the test...

Hi, Just been measuring a little bit on the disassembled 12 bolt rims. The bolts are indeed exactly 1/2" or 12.7mm OD and as already indicated there are 9 holes 15mm and 3 holes 14mm. The 14mm holes are no doubt intended to support centering, but this still leaves a gap of about 1.3mm. So I...

Thank you to All, Interesting and valuable read, thank you! This will be very helpful in getting HMMWV rims set up correctly. In view of implementing a change of offset, does anyone here know the exact inside diameter of the rim just about at the center line, on the edge where the rim is...

Absolutely! Used it numerous times as tools and parts rack, work bench, "take a break, relax and sit in the sun" or "talk cars with the neighbors"-bench, ... :cool: Jake

Just a little helpful tip. I built myself a light platform in rectangular tube with some scrap light square tubing and left over pieces of deck board, to fit onto any CUCV. This makes it a lot easier to work in the engine bay, even more with lift kits and/or oversize tires. The rectangular tubes...

Weird... I was expecting more reaction to this comment: " ... and which also explains why we consume as much fuel as we do as we very poorly burn just a little bit of the fuel in the cylinder {which can be resolved by injecting pre-heated diesel fuel to 400 degrees Celcius = 752 F and which then...

Thank you CucvRus, 2" stainless steal pipes it will be... well, with 2 slim long glass packed strait through muflers/silencers somewhere in between. Great, time to put the hydraulic pipe bender to use! Thanks, Jake

Hi CucvRus, I was just searching for experiences with exhaust pipe and various diameters. My entire exhaust needs replacement, since it is a horrible DIY of various bits and pieces from one of the previous owners; it binds and rubs and just does not fit right. Before looking into what size or...

... 6 years later / too late... :sneaky: Check here: http://www.clarkbrothers.net/pdf/MC794_CBI_Master3.pdf page 53 / page 48, part F-35 Does anyone know a source where one can order/buy Clark Brothers Instrument Company parts online? In CA or FL ? Their Ratio Adapters should do the job...

Hi All, Thanks for the advice! Ordered Cloyes Timing Set and Fel-Pro Gasket kit. Another M1009 To Do Item on my list... Cheers, Jake

Hi Tailwheel, Thank you, much appreciated. A pity there are no values in degrees crankshaft rotation to go by, which would allow for checking without having to open up the front end. Guess I will have to remove the front cover then to take some measurements, but I am almost certain chain...

Good evening all, Been trying to determine the amount of stretch my timing chain has and with only 25000 miles on this M1009, my findings are of concern to say the least. I found the slack to allow between 7 and 9 degrees of crankshaft rotation before the valve train is engaged. This really...

Hello all, I have used Perfect Circle piston rings many years ago in the seventies, with my dad, when repairing our 1957 German built tractor with MWM Diesel engine. I still have that tractor at home to this day and it starts like a charm and runs like a beast... built to last generations! I...

Same here! Jake

Hi AntennaClimber, Have you had time to check the specifications of that last diode wired into the negative side of the glow lug controller PCB? Best, Jake

Hi Rutjes, From your pictures, are you using the same type of relay for the starter as for the glow plugs? What is the model number of these black cube shaped solenoids? Thanks, Jake
