    Do Army mechanics read the TM's?

    How much work do the GL employees do to some of these trucks to get them more presentable for sale, I would imagine some places do different levels of prep. When I picked up mine they said I could drive it home no problem but I loaded it on my step-deck and hauled 200mi it just in case. My idea...

    Ether feed switch no power

    I am pretty sure the valve is bad, I guess my main problem is no power to the switch in the cab if it is hooked up like it came, it has no power, I just can't figure out where I don't have power to the switch. I am guessing a break in the wire or disconnected?

    Ether feed switch no power

    Been working on the ether switch today, here is what I have done: Checked if I had power to the switch in the cab no, so went to TM9-2320-272-23-1 and found the ether starting system operation. I have power to 5A through the CB and to 27 I could not find 5C so I disconnected 498B from the...

    Grab a hammer and give the starter a technical tap, not too hard, sometimes this breaks them loose.

    Exporting North?

    I did not have to fill out an EUC when I bought the M923A2 so can it be sold to someone north of the border. I did some searching but I could not find anything recent on the topic within the last 3 years or so.:-?

    Cold Weather starting of an M1008 - Any helpful advice ?

    It was 0 here last weekend elk hunting and I was a little worried but she fired right up with 2 GP cycles, sounded better than I thought it would. I put new GP's in this fall and I always run Howes additive in all my diesels.

    White smoke...

    Your engine might not be up to normal operating temp about 190 if it is that cold out, you might check into a cold front of some sort to block the cold air. I have used a piece of cardboard before paint it black and it blends in pretty well. If you don't have a temp gauge then it will be hard to...

    Camo seat cover with cargo pockets question

    https://www.marathonseatcovers.com/seat-covers/chevrolet-gmc/silverado-sierra-2500/1984/Select-Material.html I have used these seat covers for years on all makes and models they wear, fit great and last for ever, but they are not cheap.

    Low voltage to both exciter wires

    Update, it was cold the other morning and I took her to work so I could work on it in the shop. The heater was not working very good so when I had a chance I pulled the resistor and holy cow was there a mouse nest in there. I ended up pulling the blower motor and cleaned out the houseing on the...
