Around 55, on the journey the fastest I had gone was 61. I was averaging 52 - all this according to GPS speedo

Took the humvee on the highway today, first time since the 6.5 turbo went in. Drove almost 50 miles, ran great, sounded great, I couldn't have been happier Then a connecting rod blew through the oil pan. I don't know if I want to scream or cry

For what its worth- I just thought my heater motor died and started looking for new ones. After looking over my heater, cleaning the grounds, adding dielectric grease to the connections and making sure they were all strong, it worked again **. I also had a lot of mud built up in the hoses, maybe...

Thank you, that is what I needed to know. Why could I not find a diagram showing the reservoir and the cadillac valve? You had told me a couple months ago to do the 200 amp, it will be done this winter. I have already started gathering supplies.

This is the reservoir I have that I do not see in the diagrams with the Cadillac valve. No one else has this? Is it an older version? first time with a picture, hope it works

Yes, the same one as you posted earlier in this thread. It does not show an oil reservoir though. And it shows three lines coming out of the pump. My pump only has two ports.

This diagram does not show a power steering reservoir mounted. Mine has a reservoir. My pump only has two outputs. So where your caddy valve comes from pump, mine comes from the reservoir. Right or wrong? Am I not supposed to have a reservoir with the Cadillac valve? If I did I imagine I'd need...

That is what I am trying to do. However searching the TM's I can't find the correct way for it, I can find a diagram of the routing with the cadillac valve and without a power steering reservoir and one with the power steering reservoir but without the cadillac valve. I can't find any diagram...

I'm still having this issue of blowing hoses off. I have too much pressure. I cannot find anywhere in the TM's a diagram of the power steering hoses that include both the power steering fluid reservoir AND the cadillac valve. Everything was plumbed back the way it was but I want to confirm it...

Fan was constantly running, from other posts I saw those two were the primary reasons why this would happen.

I'm having a similar issue right now, PS fluid blowing out at the fan clutch where the O ring is. I recently did the 6.2- 6.5 swap, I replaced the TDM and the cadillac valve. After testing I'm getting 130-140 pressure going to the fan clutch. For you it was just a bad cadillac valve? Is that...

Yea, I get that, my question more was more between an AO, A1 or A2. I know the main difference between the other hmmwv variations was the upgraded 6.5. After some more research I don't think the M1038 was ever manufactured with the 6.5- is this correct? It only had the M1038 and the M1038A1 in 1994?

I know this is an old thread, maybe someone can answer though. The variations are body types- correct? I read through the link, but it mentions the engines. In my case- I had a 91 M1038 with the 6.2 now after replacing the engine with the 6.5 my variation is the same?

I was stopping to look at Trailers today in Orleans MA. I noticed two Humvee's in Cape Cod Truck Shop next door in Brewster. Are they yours? If you see this, please reach out, I haven't seen any others around and have some questions. I assume they got worked on there, good place? Ben

Correction: Connecting Rod.
