    Part number for the small square vacuum connector on tranny vacuum regulator?

    Thanks for all the help. Shifts much better now. Best $4.00 I've spent in a good while.

    Part number for the small square vacuum connector on tranny vacuum regulator?

    Seeing how I pulled them off and forgot their order the long or short line?

    Part number for the small square vacuum connector on tranny vacuum regulator?

    I looked through the cucv parts manual with no listing for the square black vacuum connector that connects to the transmission vacuum regulator. The two vacuum hoses then connect into that square block. Is there a part number for this or go ahead and connect the vacuum lines directly to...

    Threatened fail on state inspection no cats

    Wise county. You're in a emissions county but that won't matter with the cucv. Let them try to hook it up to OBDII. Emission is coming to our county at some point since we are adjacent to Tarrant. I dread that day if I can't find a decent merc 300d or sd.

    Threatened fail on state inspection no cats

    Took my M1009 to get inspected today. Guy comes back in and tells me it won't pass cause it doesn't have cats as well as the passenger high beam isn't coming on. I went out with him and smacked the headlight solving that problem. Then I went round and round with him over the cats...

    My 1984 Chevrolet Suburban K20 4x4 3/4 ton CUCV clone #2 - AKA: M1007 or M1029

    Nice truck. I live 10 miles from the Bridgeport OHV park.

    Considering selling my M1009

    Questions to ask yourself: Do I have the space for it and the tahoe ppv? Can I afford to keep it on insurance and register it? Will I use it if I buy the tahoe? I look at it this way. You probably have 3-4K of junk that you could sell that would equal the net sales of the cucv and apply...

    Steel Soldiers emails and site issues

    I too am surprised members got bent over this obvious hack. Anybody could get the fact that the poorly written diatribe by the hack was no "V" speech or anything close to the founding father's eloquent verbage.

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    Did the mod last weekend. I went with the OP's napa stuff rather than the stanadyne because I got irritated about the shipping cost of the stanadyne. I did the plumbing slightly different. Lowe's didn't have the 1/2 mip to 3/8 splice of the 1/2" mip to 1/4 splice. I used a 1/2 fip...

    Will this spin on filter setup work?

    I read through that thread. The stanadyne base I linked to has the ability to add a modular primer which I would rather have. Also the napa has too many adaptors IMO. What I'm not sure about is the micron rating it should have.

    Will this spin on filter setup work?

    Fuel filter base leak started this AM so it's time for the spin on filter mod. I've been searching the forum and need some help. I like the idea of the stanadyne base with the primer pump but confused about whether this one is the right choice. 33642 Stanadyne Fuel Manager FM100...

    WTK: Rear seat mod using late model suburban 3rd seat

    Thanks for the link. I'll think about it but I want to figure out a way to use the blazer base and attach the suburban seat to the base so I can retain the original holes.

    WTK: Rear seat mod using late model suburban 3rd seat

    Got a link? I did a search and didn't come up with anything.

    WTK: Rear seat mod using late model suburban 3rd seat

    I want to replace the 2nd row seat in the 1009 with a third row seat out of a 2000 up suburban so that I will have shoulder belts for the kids (keeps them safer and less hassle from the blue lights, they're harsh around here).
