Don't forget the ground of the switch to the column. This one has befuzzelated me a couple of times.

The pos cable goes from the batt, through the front wall of the bat box and down through the floor (outside the batt box but inside the seat box), over the frame, across the top of the tranny to the starter. The neg cable goes right next to the pos cable through the batt box and floor then to...

My guess is the block isn't drained. First: the obligatory admonition about the tech orders....Get 'um. I'm not that familiar with the CUCV specifically, but the all the Chev "V" engines that I ma familiar with (small block, big block and diesels, which are just modified big blocks) have drains...

... and 2 of these F60150... I have been using the NAPA #3512 with a #5070 gasket for my secondary fuel filters. The interchange info, quoted above by wsucougarx, says there is not enough flow through these. Am I starving my engine? I can sure make all the smoke I want. Any speed, any gear...

welding repair panels I agree about keeping mud and such out of the lamination. If you choose to butt weld, your fit up must be METICULOUS. Even a panel's thickness of a gap will give you fits and cause even more warping. This all assumes you're using a wire feed welder (GMAW) Stick welding...

Hi there: First, i need to ad the obligatory reference to previous threads. There was quite a discussion a while back about ham radio. Several of the member's avatars have a little signal corps flag in the corner. Those are some of the hams on the site. First, a little about repeaters...

Hey Joe: Welcome to the site. You need to check out the Michigan Museum of Military Transport and the Great Lakes MVPA. We have a web site (just Google the name) and an event in Grayling the end of this month (Sept 26-27-28 ). It is the BIG one of the year. For insurance reasons you need to be...

Wilco: please elaborate. I can't read the label and I'd like to know where to get some of this stuff. I have an antenna tower that needs a treatment before I go to the trouble of putting it up. Thanks

We have been stopped at the our big fall trail ride and told that no one may ride in the back of our MV's on the road. This is a recent law passed here in the People's Republic of Michuniga. This was brought on a couple of years ago when a truck load of undocumented citizens (illegal aliens)...

From the looks of your interior, you've had water down the inside of the walls. Mine did too. You have aluminum skin and a steel frame. You might get away with drilling out some rivets and pealing the skin back. Do your self a favor and pull the inspection cover off the open side, that'll help...

mdd0172: Is that your expando in the pix? in the open position? If you have it open, you are over half way there. Go on top of the wall and use the PB on the top latch. It is almost guaranteed to be the problem. remove the access panel and pull the clevis pin for the top latch, that will...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Expansible Van Body Corroded Stuck! >The 4 square lock bolts on the sides and the main side extending mechanisms are just stuck.< In reality, the problem is almost guaranteed to be the top dead bolt. Water gets in there from the top and rusts it solid. Or at least mine is...

>I have My permit here in PA, what make PA alittle better then most states, is that it is an open carry state.. HOOAH< Mich is an open carry state too. However, that having been said. We were told in class that they can ALWAYS find SOMETHING to charge you with. Prehaps mopery with intent to...

I find this very funny because I only have one M35 and have been asked if I am starting or a member of a militia twice since its been next to my garage. I was in Lowe's one day with my M-37 and when I came back to my truck there was a city cop sitting behind me. He said they'd had a call that...

>He says that if you get pulled over, tell the police officer that you have a CCW permit when you hand him your drivers license. ALSO tell him if you are carrieing a weapon or not. Because once he runs your drivers licence he is going to know< A later note: Here in Mich. it's a felony to not...
