Good Day All -
M1009 with the 6.2l and an add on Banks Turbo. What should my normal exhaust temp be? What I am seeing is around 300 after warming up for around 20 min, under normal driving power (45 MPH) I am between 500-600 and if I press it going up a hill I start creeping up into the 900...
Seem to be having an issue keeping my M1009 running. It will start just fine, I can let it sit and idle with no issues, purrs like a kitten.....but when I put it under any power (i.e. drive it slowly to the end of the block) I loose all power and it dies. I can start it back up and give it a...
Prior to the issue I would hit 900 with the turbo engaged and between 400-600 running normal. Sounds like I have a few lines and maybe switch to a spin on filter to try. I have looked at an IP, about $600 for the part and what looks like a ton of work!
A question, if I replace the lines how...

That is an interesting idea. My first thought was bad fuel but air is a possibility as well. I did replace the filter about a month ago, but the lines are all original and I am certain could use a replacement. I will start with that. Another symptom that I noticed that I forgot to add - I...

I have done a ton of reading and followed a great deal of the advice offered but am still having issues.
I have a 1986 M1009, was running like a champ and 2 weeks ago I go out in the morning after driving it the day before and it will not even turn over, just acts like it is dead in the water...
Do I understand that if I use the AC60's I have to convert that portion of the system to 12v? I am a new owner of a 1009 and new to 24v and Diesel. Thanks
