    Oil Filter Check Valves Recommended? - 2010 Melton Rebuild 6.5

    Wix 51060 and the NAPA Gold 1060 I believe are the same filter (one of each setting on my desk now) each has a drain back valve. It is my understanding the valve is used when the filter is mounted sideways or even slightly downward to prevent oil drain back. HMMWV's are mounted sideways. You...

    Hmmwv fuel system issue

    YUP, works. And he will likely have to cut the plug in two and push the remainder into the tank. Once they are in there for a few years they seem to be near permanent.

    Hmmwv fuel system issue

    I own a bore scope. If you remove the fuel sender it's not needed. It might work down the filler tube but you have to disassemble part of the filler tube . Gets you further along the path to removing the tank. Diesel fuel and gasoline are two different animals in a fuel tank. STUFF grows in...

    Hmmwv fuel system issue

    My opinion is the gasket under the metal plate could not be replaced thru the bed...... just my opinion. If you remove the fuel sender you can get a good look in the tank. At that point I believe you will opt to remove it. If you are in a nice neighborhood with gutters down the street flushing...

    Hmmwv fuel system issue

    You can bypass the fuel tank to eliminate it with a piece of 3/8 inch fuel line , one end on the pickup side of the fuel pump and the other in a jug of clean fuel. (You can even drive around with this setup, jug in the pass. floor hose taped to the side of the truck. Don't tell anyone) If you...

    Upper ball joint upgrade?

    Did the depot swap out the lower arms??? I swapped out upper and lowers on my 998,. The uppers were probably unnecessary as IMHO the uppers are along for the ride, the lowers look to do the heavy lifting.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    RIM CHANGEOUT (Paired 24 Stud) with Run-Flats

    My humble opinion, Pick up a new as possible set of MT's or OZ's instal what you have and add a set of centramatics. It will never ride like a pickup.

    RIM CHANGEOUT (Paired 24 Stud) with Run-Flats

    My suspicions were correct. Thats is not the old style run flat. I just saw one of these recently. Some one more knowledgeable with these please chime in and bring everyone up to speed on these. (Action, I saw these at a shop just east of Nashville, our neck of the woods.)

    It was one of those days...

    Everyone might want to direct their attention to some trucks "that have previously sold" in Maryland. The VIN's are interesting!

    Shudder at 40mph

    Let us know what you find. I kinda like people that are not afraid of wrenches! Own a few myself.

    Shudder at 40mph

    Could be you balance beads are distributing around the tire at 40. Might want to swap a set of wheels and tires on and see if it is still there??? I think I would have tried that before pulling a converter....the beads don't balance the tires until centrifugal force distributes them around the...

    1994 M998A1 Stalling and dying after a mile or two

    YUP, about what both of mine looked like. Ran long enough for me to call rescue and have the kid tow me back ( I think he enjoyed it, laughed the whole time, 3 times)

    1994 M998A1 Stalling and dying after a mile or two

    Remove fuel tank and clean ( you are going to be surprised what is in there). REMOVE fuel filter housing and clean and replace fuel filter. Post a picture of the inside of your tank! If you have the inspection/fuel sender access plate in the bed pull that and then the sender and have a look...
