    Time starter relay for anti-theft...?

    Hello...Glad to be back on the forum after a break...! I'm hoping someone can give some install tips and suggestions. I'm looking to install a relay that's timed and controlled by a remote (like a car alarm fob) as a anti theft device. I would like to set it up so that in order to crank my...

    Water Pump Plate

    I know this thread is a little old but just to let people know...Peninsular Diesel sells brand new plates that they are now having made. They run about $70.00 and are correct for the 6.2's in our M1008/M1009's. They are quite nice.

All contacts, battery terminals etc. are shiny clean and clamps are tight etc. All the basic stuff has been checked. There are no loose connections that I can...

    Fuel Pressure Gauge for FM100 head...which port?

    Hello All, A quick question. What would be the preferred port on the Stanadyne FM100 filter head to put a fuel pressure gauge on? Inlet into the filter head or outlet out of the filter head to the IP? With an electric fuel pump would you see accurate fuel pressure readings after the filter to...

    Air bubbles in Fuel Return Line on top of IP...?

    A quick question... If air is getting into the fuel filter assembly somehow would I see air bubbles in the fuel return line on the top of the injector pump?

    ***UPDATE*** So after have the truck flat-bedded home by the friendly AAA who said..."This thing is heavy"...I started going through the trouble shooting sections in the TM's and went out and checked a few things. During the course of checking to see whether fuel was present in the fuel return...

    M1009 Odd smell on cold start...Can't find source....Baffled

    Ok...I have found the problem. In the end it was something very simple as I kept thinking..."what's happening electrically only when starting the truck cold"? Obviously the glow plugs cycling...right? Well...I had checked the relay and all the voltages more than once and all seemed good. I...

    My Glow Plug System Dilemma....AntennaClimber this is for you...:)

    Well....it has been getting colder where I'm at now and after starting the output of the relay where it's distributed to the GP's shows about 14.4 volts as well but my system still does not do an "after glow" on and off cycle. I thought the controller card was supposed to do this but no go on my...

    M1009 Odd smell on cold start...Can't find source....Baffled

    Thank you for the suggestions. I do have a replacement direct drive starter standing by....I just don't have the time right now to swap it out. I'm kind of afraid to go out there and crank it a bunch to see if it smokes...LOL. Do you think the problem could be in the solenoid at all? I would...
