M1009 starting problems

[cucvrus]

Easy cruise. I am about 65 miles from you. Get on PA 72 north and go thru Lebanon to Jonestown. Let me know. I will PM my cell number. I have a few rebuilt injection pumps in stock and Autozone is just up the road a bit. Keep in touch.

Will do. Have to work this weekend.

Well truck would not start this evening. Broke down at work. Acts like the batteries went dead. Just load tested them Saturday they were fine. Uhg.

Well just checked the batteries they are both good. So now what. Acts like the starter is not getting enough power to it.

 

[ODFever]

Have you pulled the starter out and checked the cables for corrosion, fraying, or loose connections? If you haven't, disconnect the battery cables before climbing under your truck.

 

[REDWOLF]

Could it be the relay under the dash?

 

[cucvrus]

It could be the starter is getting a bit tired from all the extra over cranking and cranking. But if it is still cranking then the relay is working.

Anyone have the part numbers handy for the gear reduction starter 24volt, truck still broke down at work. Not sure what eles to do. Going to get her hald home in the next day or so hopfuly.

 

[cucvrus]

Do you have a gear reduction on now? If not stick to the direct drive. The direct drive takes a lot more cranking and pounding then the gear reduction. Not to mention most of the gear reductions I have seen lately are Chinese imports. Besides you will need the support bracket or cut up one of the rare direct drive brackets to fit. It's your choice. It is a holiday weekend. I have rebuilt ones to exchange either way. If you get in a bind let me know. I have good locally remanufactured starters and alternators to get you by. Or you may opt for the HMMWV starter on your CUCV. It fits up there. I looked at it and thought about using a CUCV starter on the HMMWV. What valid point do they have for such a heavy starter on the HMMWV? 2 men to change a starter. Unreal. Good Luck.

I have a gear reduction on it now. But I have both brackets so I can go either way. We'll let you know. Have to see how the money is. Pay is next week. Thanks for all the help. If o can get it ruining again I will be up the next weekend I am off.

I plan on being here this weekend. I think I can fix a CUCV. I am sure I can fix a CUCV. I have just about everything here to fix one including a rebuilt injection pump. Is it still 24 Volt? PA 72 North thru Lebanon to Jonestown. About 1.5 hours from Conowingo.

 

[REDWOLF]

It is all original.

I would not be able to come up until the 23rd. That's my next Saturday off. Hope to have the replacement starter in by then.

I'm having the same problem with my M1028. new fuel tank, new lift pump, new check valve in IP, Changed fuel lines, no leaks. Starts great right after you shut it off wait 30 -40 minutes have to crank it a bunch to get it to start. I can pour a little fuel into the intake and it fires right up. so I know its a fuel problem just not sure what.

 

[REDWOLF]

If you figure it out MILlMAN37 before I do let me know. This has now coast me a starter. Been a pain in my but. I will definitely post if i figure it out.

Didn't read thru all your posts, but do either you or Miillman37 have the original fuel filter base. The fuel pressure sensor o-ring is a known culprit for this issue.

That symptom will usually not happen as quickly as this is happening. I am thinking his injection pump is bad.

I have the original fuel filter base.
