    M998 Upgrades

    If it were me, being 6'4" and having to drive one while on active duty for too many miles, I would say cut out the support behind the drivers seat and move it back far enough to be able to get in and out without busted knees.

    m931 solenoid problem

    If you are having solenoid issues, verify that it is 'sucking in' all the way also, or you may begin to have starting/run issues due to the push rod not retracting and letting the fuel cutoff open fully.

    I agree with Guy, figure this out yourself. What are you going to do in a snowstorm when it quits? Its only been a couple days, and most of that time is spend on making it run.

    Early to mid 2000's, Marine Corp versions, that shouldn't make any difference on what kind of fuel line was used.

    I have worked on 4 of these so far, and everyone of them needed a new collar, and every one of them had a flared end that had to be cut off to replace the collar, and it got reflared after the new collar went on.

    MEP-805B no hrz/power readings

    That fuel line should be flared, and I bet that the collar is cracked, if not cracked it is spread out so much that it bottoms out on the nipple it skrews on. If it were me, I would replace the nipple that skrews into the pump, the collar, and the rubber washer. And flare that fuel line. I...

    Wife is now a green iron believer

    Mine asked me today how to start it, so we walked thru checking oil, coolant, looking for leaks, fuel gauge, preheat start, run and volts/hz adjustments.
