Ok, so I didn't know about the "idiot" light being out meant that the alt was shot. I assume that of there was a problem the light would come on. So I checked the bulb, it's good. Guess a new alt is in order.

1986 m1009 did the roscommon 12v conversion back in the summer. I did the one where u remove the drivers side alt. Drove home today, & notice the the wipers barely want to move, lights seem dim. When i got home, turn truck off, & tried to restart, no go. Had to go some where for a while. So...

I'm glad I stumbled across this thread. I too replaced my heater core back in the summer, with the cheaper one from advance, threw away the lil cheap looking foam piece, there wasn't one there to start with. being my first winter with this truck, I had no ideal that the foam was needed. I...

I did this a while back. How ever I completely forgot about the brake light doubling as a turn signal

One thing car comp r doing is adding noise reduceing patches to the inside of door sheels as well on the inside of the 1/4 panels, floor boards & in the trucnk area where the spare tire is. We use these when doing such repairs, peel & stick...

Pull down your sun visor on drivers side, & you'll see the starting procedure.

What happens if the string breaks? I would like to see some research on pedal start, like a old school mpoed

Ok. Thanks for the help.

Had a new ip installed 3 months ago. Just last week I notice fuel leaking from the bottom of the motor. I just traced it to one of the weep hole under the pump where the throttle shaft plunger is. What would cause this & is it an easy fix? thank you for the help

Here's the dirty on it. 86 m1009. I bought a new starter relay to do the dog head conversion a while back. Starter went bad, so new 12v starter & Roscommon 12v conversion was done. How ever, I never got around to the new relay. as of now, the stock relay is not it. My question is this.... go...

Well i found out if i wait 30 mins, it won't start. I know i at least have to wait 2 hrs beofre it will. So as i looked @ new sensors, checked mine, it has been 30mins since i cranked it, no dice. So i unplug the sensor, the wait light comes on, i wait 5-10secs. then it fires right up. But u...

Never mind on the 2 wire conversion. I just went out checked mine, & saw that it is a 2 wire plug. How ever i think i found.Temporary fix until imget a new sensor. I will know for sure in 30 mins.

So what is the difference in the one you listed oreilly new style wt3000 & auto zones part #su183 & my next question is how do I convert from single wire to the newer two prong style.

Like to bump this. I am having the same issue. 10-20 mins after shut down starts fine, hr later & it takes a while to start. After 2 hrs the wait light comes on, & it fire right up. Have new glow plugs, as well as the relay, I feel one it's the same issue as the op. So Dear op, where did u get...

Paint f & r bumpers black along with the grille, & leave it green.
