Well... now I'm totally confused. I did not understand...
Maybe it's my understanding or the translation, but I don't understand the problem. (...I don't mean it in a derogatory way).
Normally there should be no more than 2-3 bar pressure on the line. If I use a normal ¾" thread and seal it...
Dear Steel Soldier Community,
I have a question about the cooler. The thermostat tester is attached to the radiator on the right-hand side, seen from the driver's point of view. I think there are still 2 blind openings here. I call blind openings openings in the radiator that are closed by a...
I also found this page with some – quite good – screenshots and pictures. Here it is explained again in a "simple" way what has 24 v and what has 12 v, how and where.

So I can't use a 3/4-18 inverted flare thread T adapter piece between the hose sleeve and the metal line where the vent comes off? I wanted to save myself the work of squeezing hose sleeves - and the purchase of industrial pressure hoses with special specifications -?
:unsure:
Thanks to @87cr250r for this good photo. :)(y)
In advance:
Please excuse my - possibly from your point of view - partly superfluous questions, but I really have to approach the topic step by step. So a big sorry for the forum members I go on the nerves. :cry:
Which screw connection has the...
Ah, ok, yes, I had to remove and add the windscreen wipers once. So the two screws in the engine compartment on the fire wall at the back are the only attachment, thanks. :) (y)
a small question regarding the cover of the ventilation intake? - Link
a small question Questions about the thermostat test holes in the radiator - Link
Hello Steel Soldier Community,
Short and simple question, since I have not found this section in TM.
How can I disassemble this cover of the ventilation intake?
I would like to disassemble this so I can seal the rubber windshield gasket on the bottom edge as well.
Is there a diagram that shows...
Thanks for the quick analysis about the grease nipples. Yes, I am aware that the M1009 is not 100%. I'm considering it, but before that there are other items on the list
Hello Steel Soldier Community,
A Simple question, the TM for maintenance and lubrication of the vehicle shows me more places to lubricate than that I can find "grease nipples" on the steering linkage?
How should be lubricated there, not with the grease gun. I am particularly concerned here...
Dear Steel Soldier Community,
Small steps...
The Test
Finally, after an almost "endless story" I could take the spray cans with "Cosmoline RP-342 "Heavy" Military-Grade Rust Preventive Spray" and "Cosmoline RP-342 "Heavy" Military-Grade Rust Preventive Spray 'Black'" in my possession.
To see a...
Dear Steel Soldier Community,
Last weekend I had time again to do some work on the M1009. Thereby I had a short drive on a dirt road and during the inspection in the underground parking I discovered soil on the side skirt plate inside.
This led to my question whether there are optimizing...
Dear gentleman,
I do not know the technical term, for this reason I try to describe it.
I am looking for a kit or spare parts to "better" seal the rear wheel wells.
I have K5 M1009 6.2 l diesel and on mine the rear wheel wells are relatively open to the front and to the rear.
To test the 4 WD...

Tires and air pressure
According to my vehicle registration, I have the following tires on the Blazer:
"31 x 10.5 R15 LT"
In the TM "1979 CHEVROLET LIGHT DUTY TRUCK SERVICE MANUAL.pdf" I found tables describing the air pressure of the tires, but somehow I can't get it to work. I have my tire...
I think having a sheet metal bent and then painting it will be cheaper, I also have not been able to find one yet.
I unfortunately do not have the tank bracket (US) - so the round - yet. But I think that this metal trapezoid is under de holder, because the space between the wheel well and rear...
