    AM General parts website

    Recently I've found several bogus websites that are offering HMMWV parts at very good prices and they're all scams. The latest one was called PDAKTA. They offer new MT tires at $99 with free shipping over $40. My suggestion for anyone tempted to buy from them is to look at their contact...

    Dash board

    Those covers are available in red, blue, green, and clear, They're not expensive so if yours are melted or broken don't worry about damaging them. Just use a pair of slip joint pliers to turn them counter-clockwise to get them out of their sockets. Suggestion: Replace them with clear lenses...

    Need help identifying part

    The starter bolts have about an inch of knurling on the threaded end and where they usually break is right between the threads and the knurling.

    Need help identifying part

    Dave Walker at Walker Truck Parts in Hesperia, California has a kit with the correct bolts and a spacer strap on his site. I tried going to GM when my original broke but it didn't feel right when I installed it. Daves work perfectly.

    Mystery Dash Switch in 1986 M998

    Probably the best thing you can do to improve cooling is to remove the armored grill if you have one. If not then like Cam says, make sure everything is in proper working order and you'll be OK.

    Sealing washer pump grommet

    If you go to your local auto parts store and ask for "windshield sealant" you get a slightly less viscous version of RTV that flows more easily. That will allow it to get down into areas you might not be able to apply regular silicon sealant to. I use it for sealing up connectors that I don't...

    Nevermind.... Got it. M998 Fuses / circuit breaker

    Your correct about the circuit breakers being self resetting but the headlights don't get their power through them. You must have jiggled something when you were in there. TM 9 2320-280-20-3 has the schematics in the back. Chances are if you have a 998 you also have a 60 amp alternator so the...

    All lights

    The TM you want to look at is TM 9 2320-280-20-3. In the back of the manual are the schematics for the HMMWV. There are a couple different ones but the lighting circuitry is the same throughout the series so any schematic should do to troubleshoot your lighting issues. They're large drawings...

    Hmmwv Blue Smoke and Stutter on Startup

    When your trucks exhaust starts looking like a mosquito abatement truck you need to start figuring out why. However, with the cold start solemoid actuated a little smoke like this is OK for a minute or two but it should drop off as the engine starts to warm up.

    Cold morning startup question

    At 35 degrees it's normal to have to try a couple times. At 70 you might want to start checking things out.

    Hmmwv Blue Smoke and Stutter on Startup

    Get into your TMs and read up on the "cold advance" system. When the engine is cold a switch on the rear of the right cylinder head actuates a solenoid in the IP that injects a little more fuel when cold. Since it sits idle most of the time it can have problems working when it needs to. One...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I recently went thru this with my truck too. I kept hearing a scraping sound in the right front and decided to investigate. When I grabbed the right hand caliper it wiggled and I could see the lower bolt was partially backed out. To tighten them it's necessary to remove the half-shaft, remove...

    Voltage varies

    This time of year in Wyoming you can expect to see the glow plugs cycle for up to 10 minutes on a cold start until the engine starts to warm up. During normal cycling the voltmeter should only dip into the yellow for about 10 seconds at a a time. On warm summer days this might only last for 1 or...
