Hello everyone!
A brief reflection on my diagnosis please.
A colleague of mine has an H1 with the classic 6.2 that I am looking after.
If the car stands still for a long time and is cold, you can hear it "knocking back" from the intake. No abnormal rattling or mechanical noises.
The car has...
Hi everyone
As I'm thinking of replacing my servo pump, I thought to myself... why not switch to the new system? So from the pump with the reservoir integrated to the new one with the reservoir on the top left.
As I have never seen the newer system, I don't know exactly what the differences...
Hi
A friend of mine has the SAM-37 (Super Swamper TSL - BIAS 38.5x16/16.5LT) on his HUMMER. But unfortunately very old, cracked and worn. He would like to have exactly these again.
Now Summit has told me they are out of stock, VividRacing the same.
Do any of you have a source?
thx,
hansen
I am planning a tour to northern Sweden for February 2025. 1,800 miles one way.
Since the fuel supply up there is sometimes difficult and the HMMWV is not exactly a long-distance runner, I have to think of a solution.
A fuel can is certainly an option. But at -13 deg F and permanent darkness...
I've had a question for some time.
From my German/Swiss point of view, a vehicle that is taken out of service is removed from active service.
It may still be used in non-critical areas, but no longer in active service in front (near) areas.
This also has something to do with the supply of...
Hello together
My rig starts burning oel, i think. Not dramatic but noticeable. I think 1 quart on 1k mils.
At the same time, I imagine that I am getting more black smoke from the exhaust when hitting the right pedal.
But my air filter is still clean. No oel on it.
My motor has only 10k miles...
Hi togetherI
I have, so I guess, a diesel / air / line poblem.
The history:
My truck ran after a long tour in quite warm outside temperatures and after very heavy rain only with about 80% of the power.
I didn't notice it right away, but it was noticeable.
So I guessed water in the diesel. It...
Hi
I'm looking for the tool for pushing back the rear brake piston. Found only on source here in europe but for a astronomic price.
Anybody a different source?
thanks,

Hi
A friend gave me this folder yesterday. I had never seen a folder like this before.
According to the labeling, these folders were probably used for all kinds of machines and vehicles.
So I can imagine that this was a part of the vehicle history and maintenance protocols were included.
For...

Short history. My M1123 is from Barstow and was overhauled in 2009. After that it was in the desert and I got it with 2'000mi.
For the TÜV a brake force regulator had to go in. The rear axle had over braked too much.
Now the good man, who mechanically delivered a clean...
Hi suffering comrades
My truck is a USMC from Barstow. Was sitting in the sun and sand for 13 years.
So the gauges glas is junk. Sandblasted an sunburnd.
I can get new glasses cut, but I have to open and measure the old ones first.
Is there an elegant way to open up the gauges? Has anyone...
Hi suffering comrades
My Oelpressure Gauge shows very high values when the engine is off (90psi) . And it climbs to the max of 120psi when engine is runnng. You could say, a offset ;-)
But i the case of oelpressur, i like to reade a trustable value.
The Parts for monitoring the oepressure, the...
Unfortunately, the motor of my heater fan keeps failing. Has been completely dead for the last few months.
Electrically, this is fine i think.
Had yesterday, as part of the diagnosis, removed the distributor (window/footwell) on the passenger side and gave it a push "on suspicion". There he...
Hi Everyone
I'm currently looking for 3 or 4 seatbelds in the classic configuration. The version with two separate belts and a lock for two belts.
I have searched at all my known stores here in Europe. But they seem to have disappeared completely. Do any of you know a source?
Good evening together
My 4 speed currently does not seem to shift into 4th gear or overdrive.
Drove in the snow a week ago and on the way home felt like "I'm missing a gear"!
I had manually shifted to "2" or "1" while driving, since very mountainous, to brake more evenly downhill with all four...
Hi there
I have some codes painted on my hood.
The last line I think is related to the rebuild date. That was according to the plaque in 04/2009 and CARC certainly refers to the color.
But what stands the rest for?
Probably a stupid question... but I didn't really find anything useful about this in my search.
What is the meaning behind the "manufactures cage code" on the badge at the HMMWV?
Mine is 19207 - 87T0080.
thx,
Gerd

Hello together
I hope my question is not too stupid and has not already been asked 2000 times.
I am just about to fill the waiting time for my 1123 with shopping.
Besides the rims on which it will eventually arrive, I have ordered a set of 24bolt.
Since I also assume that the tires on which he...
Hello together
I was just wondering if these mats are any good?
Does anyone know them? Assume that these were original equipment.
On ebay I find but unfortunately only individual pieces and not a complete set with fasteners.
