    Power steering whine

    To check if it is the hydro boost: While turning the wheel on either direction, step on the brakes. If the whine goes away or decreases... you can blame it. Air is getting in. If not the lines, might be its seals.

    My m998 brake lights stopped working ?

    I got the same problem once. Found it doing a pre check before the inspection. I started with the brake switch. Even when passing the continuity check, i could feel a bump when playing it by hand. I thought I found the issue. Replaced it, to find out it was not it. The next circuit to work on...

    what is this junk in the fuel cannister?

    Even though on the high end price, tk7 http://www.newsouthdiesel.com/product/tk7-704hs-fuel-additive-diesel-engines/?post_type=product Helps the cleansing. Fuel filters will hold that stuff. Is a must replacement.

    Battery replacement ,lithium iron phosphate

    It is expensive. I use 1 in my bike. It last longer, it had a very slow discharge rate... As the hmmwv stays for long periods in the garage, even though attached to the 'noco genius' the battery, is going away. I was thinking if someone was using it already. I know, it might appear, it is not...

    M998, 6.2, 3 speed, lost power and fluid leak from air filter!!

    But, i believe, that's exactly what happens when you get the 'vampire t-case'. The cooling loop cracks and dexron is pumped into the tcase. It gets full then there is no else to go, but into the t case air vent... then into the air cleaner .

    Vinyl wrapping

    That's a positive point for the wrapping. If it fades or if we get tired of the color scheme, it will be easy to remove and apply another (or not) one... including the time/cost.
