The whining sound is kinda normal. That is the air being dumped out of the tires up to the quick release valves. As per the IETM, if you try to air your tires up from Emergency to Highway it can take a total time of up to 40-45 minutes. So the 10 minutes you are saying yours is doing is within...

I was actually able to find the pump and the filter on eBay. Up was around $170 and filter was less than $30.

Was it armored before or not? Most trucks I delt with were Up armored. I can look and see if I have anything…..

Nope

There is only one Maintenance “manual” and it covers all variants of the MTVR. While in Iraq, we tried to upload the CD’s to the MEF share drive so that units could download load them. Something in the programs did not allow it to work. Also, the newer EMS-NG does not work correctly all the...

I have like 10 different versions and due to how the program works it cannot be converted to a PDF. I was an Oshkosh MTVR FSR attached to the Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan and Instill work on. they cannot even be used as a share file….tried that once with the Marines….didn’t work….. The TM...

All maintenance manuals for the MTVR are on laptops. The Marine Corps does not have any paper maintenance manuals. The only paper manual the Marine Corps uses for the MTVR is the operators manual.

I just go grab one off the shelf or one out of my trucks. 5 AMK-36, 5 Mk-36 and 1 AMK-31. Plus I have the maintenance program as well.

All military equipment is tested and is EMP proof. This includes tanks, trucks, comm equipment and such.

Last time I worked on that style, I did not notice anything really different. Where I work, the big issue the get is from damaging the condenser/fans while training out in the desert…. We have about 125-150 HMMWV here, ECV and M-1123 variants. Most M-1123 variants do not have A/C.

The US Army now has a different A/C set up for the M-1151/1165/1167. They got rid of the condensers up in the rear wheel wells. They now install the condenser on the radiator. All other parts remain the same.

So I checked out TM and that is the correct NSN (part number changed). But that is not the NIIN that we use to order them. we use NIIN 01-480-4000. I do not have a new one that I can check until tomorrow to verify. It could possibly be that there was NSN change, but since they update our...

I cannot check until tomorrow

Ahhh ok….

Have you checked the bulbs in the composite lights, or is it the marker lights on the hood?
