    This is a different incident from July in Bavaria. Must be a different one than the most recent one in Germany.

    Joined the club with an 18,000lb paperweight this week.

    Check your vents, they may be plugged with bee nests or whatever.

    Winter is coming... Ether start questions!

    As has been mentioned, a block heater works wonders. I don’t have power out to the parking area, so I went with a grid style intake heater. A diesel fired webasto heater would work too for warming coolant and requires no outside power.

    Tire Changing Fun?

    I found if I put two pieces of cardboard on top of each other under the tire I’m able to slide it around without too much trouble. Just make sure the jack is set at the right height so you can slide it straight on and off the studs.

    1995 M1078 Cranks But Won't Start

    Bring a full compliment of tools and fluids with you and plan on several hours of pmcs before you leave. Check out member awesomeness he has a checklist of known problem areas with these trucks. I drove mine home too, but it needed a ton of work before we left the lot.

    M1078 LMTV Fix-up Thread

    Moving the lower left lever all the way down turns the parking lights on and the headlights off. Of course the service lights have to be turned on with the top lever for this to work.

    Help ID a leaking part on an A1's brake system

    While you are back there make sure your vents are not clogged up with mud nests. Both of mine were clogged solid and I had a strange air leak. Cleaning the vents fixed it.
