Title fixed. The Gentlemen Corvette9 has been loosing prime on his fuel injection system of a 1986 CUCV M1028 A1. I sold him the truck 2 years ago and he completely restored it. He has since had an issue with the CUCV M1028A1 dropping the fuel prime when parked. Several other people and myself included have been trying to resolve the issue and get it up and trouble free again like it was for the 18 years that I owned it. Mean while he has been engaged in doing different things in an attempt to resolve the lost prime issue. Since we have basically hashed away at all issues thus far. We are to the point that the sending unit in the fuel tank may be the culprit. Thus I advised the easy thing for him to do would be to remove the bed to gain access to the fuel tank sending unit. And yes you could remove the fuel tank with out removing the bed. Not sure how easy that would be. i always remove the bed when working on changing a fuel tank or working around the fuel tank sending unit. That is the easiest thing for me. Works for me for 30 years. After all this explaining. (I really do not like explaining why and how I help another person.) What would you suggest we change the title to?
1.) I can't find my leak?
2.) How do I remove the fuel tank?
3.) Must I remove the cargo bed to access the fuel tank?
4.) Must I ask permission and get clearance to post here?
5.) Classified Ad: Used Truck For Sale looses prime. Can't fix it the TM does NOT cover everything.
OK any who. NO you do NOT have to remove the bed. It is easier since you just had it off. And I know you have the equipment to do so. I have seen your shop and equipment. It is an M1028A1 and it had the 4 D rings/tie downs. Excellent and easy to use as lifting points. Please report back. And if the title of YOUR thread that you started gets changed. I will look for it. I want to help get DUDE back on the road. The end issue is your truck is loosing prime. We will work on it. Thank you.
