WC Bed OK, thanx, I'll be looking forward to it. Lee

Thanks for the post. I would definitely be interested. I'm (unfortunately) in Kalifornia, but would have no problem going to Ohio. Some of the most beautiful country in the land. I could easily live on the border with Kentucky. My dad had a buddy from The War who lived in Coal Grove, and I...

Just curious, does anyone happen to know the whereabouts of a WC-6x bed? I have a 63, but it lacks the bed. It is otherwise surprisingly complete. I would settle for a 5x bed as well. I got one of those from Midwest, but it went away when my buddies business went up in flames. A pallet...

ugggg. that hurts me so badly. i'm looking for a WC-6x bed. Anyone got one?

yep... got it too. actually got two separate and different emails. still looking for a WC bed. anyone got one?

Awesome, thanks! I am now unhappy, because my freshly rebuilt alt 1 is not doing it's job. At least I'm learning all about alternators... Thanks again. Lee

I know the relays under the dash are the gen 2 (alternator) and voltmeter relays, but there is a third one behind the instrument cluster. I can't seem to trace this one out.

Thanks for the diagrams. I had EVERYTHING working 9 months or so ago, then my voltmeter failed about 2 months ago, then the gen 1 light, along with a lack of charging. I replaced the components in alternator one, and still have the same problem, so get to dig deeper this weekend...

On my blazer, I had the same question when tracing the wiring. This wire indeed terminates at the fuel filter. However, on my truck, there is NO corresponding wire that comes out of the fuel filter, and attaches in the fuel filter side of the connector. Therefore for my application, it seems...

Alternative uses for antenna mount.

Yeah, I figured mileage wouldn't be such a big factor, but I am cycling them once a day now. Hopefully I can get the beater miata engine rebuilt soon, I hate putting miles on the M1009. thanx!

Here's a question for folks who have worked on the CUCV's a lot. I replaced my glowplugs about two years ago, when I first picked up my M1009 from govliquidation. Over the course of a week or so, cold starts got to be more difficult, then stopped completely. I pulled 3 plugs, and they were...

Since I get to drive my desert tan M1009 in berzerkely on a regular basis, that's about all the political statement I need. I don't need the broken windows. I keep the NRA sticker on the Miata. That's paradoxical there...

and yes the gen lights both go out right away at idle.

Ok, so more fooling around, a little bit more harness unwrapping and now I magically have a properly working Generator 2 light and properly working voltmeter! Nothing got replaced, or anything. The only thing I did, that I can think of is disconnect and reconnect one connector under the hood...
