I had one doing what you now describe. Check your isolated ground wire to the intake manifold at both ends. That fixed one. Another truck years ago had the same issue. Voltage was good running and I just lived with it. Until it started flickering brightly when I hit big bumps. The positive lead...

I hate to assume. But, are you by chance talking about a CUCV? If so, how did you check the alternator? Did you load test the batteries and are they fully charged?

A spare will also fit under the rear of a M101A2 with a wind up civilian truck/suv winch. I don't seem to have any pictures here at work of mine. I will get it at home this weekend.

Welcome to the fun. Just so you know. Typing in all capitals is considered yelling and bad manners. I have one of each of the pumps you listed on non turbo charged 6.2 engines and can't tell a difference when driving. Pretty much any of the 6.2 pumps will work on a healthy engine with good...

The mechanical fuel system is not connected in anyway to the fuel gauge. Yes, the fuel pick up sock mentioned is on the same housing as the fuel level sender in the tank but I can't think of any thing that would connect the fuel gauge moving with fuel not getting picked up. Unless you have a...

The glow plugs on a stock M1009 are 12 volt. They get the same glow plugs as a 1985 Chevy or a 1998 Chevy for that matter. Delco 9G or 12G is what they came with when new. I would suggest Delco 60G to put in now. The 60 G is self limiting so the chance of swelling or exploding are greatly...

Looks very stout Rich.

That looks correct now. 190°-198° sitting still or running on flat ground. Jumping to 202°-208° on big climbs.

2 different questions were asked: Can a mechanical 4911 spec injection pump be used on a center mount turbo 6.5 engine? what has to be done to convert a non turbo 6.2 HMMWV to a center mount turbo? I’m not going to go near the good or bad of a 700R4 in such a vehicle behind a turbo diesel...

I know you have a 180° thermostat. However, 192°-198° is right where the engine lives with the stock 195° thermostat. Which starts to open at 192° and is fully open at 203°. Are you sure it is a 180° thermostat?

There is a special adaptor/bracket that bolts in at the rear of the head on the drivers side and then connects to the throttle assembly on the IP. Look for 6.2 diesel brackets since the 6.5 I don't think ever came with a non electronic automatic.

That was a good day. We had concrete to lay on and everything.

At past Rally events we have spent a good full day on the trails as a group. As mentioned already. What we can access really depends on the conditions of the trails and what is open.

Sounds great.

The nose cone of the starter is different on the direct drive starters for manual or automatic. The manual has a huge opening for the Bendix and the automatic has a very small opening. The automatic nose cone will not allow the starter to bolt up to a manual flywheel equipped engine. Since...

The 6.5 is the same external size as the 6.2. They bolt in just fine. The stock TH400 was available behind the 6.5 from the factory and handles it well.

Forgot the picture. I went down the road last night and recovered my still one piece belt and returned it with the alternator to O’Reilly’s today. Both had to be ordered. I should confirm all is well again tomorrow.

I had a really weird drive home yesterday. Jennifer and I went to Cabellas about 70 miles away. About 20 of those miles were done at 80 mph on the toll road with that speed limit. 2300 rpm, 3 psi boost, 700° EGT and 198° coolant to hold that speed in a pretty hefty head wind. All was good in my...

There has been a guy selling square body inside the frame down pipes on eBay for a while now. I think a body lift has to be done as well. Don‘t forget the crossover pipe fitment as well. Bolted up unmodified the front drive shaft hits it. The 6.5 turbo trucks were driver side drop independent...

If you are looking to put a Duramax fan on a serpentine belt 6.2 or 6.5. My suggestion is to get one of the heavy duty fan/clutch kits many of the 6.5 parts sellers offer. However, none of the 4 bolt flange clutch mount clutches will make the best use of the new bigger fan. To do that you need...
