I just picked up my m1089. After I replaced the starter, and got I to run, she took right off. Shifted up tight at first, but then smoothed out. For the first few intersections, it was fine. Then it started to not downshift on its own, and stalled the truck. I had to manually downshift the rest...
For those that have not yet picked their truck up, here is a little tip. I picked mine up and it wouldn't start. Long story short, I narrowed it down to the injection pump. Had fuel In but not out. Power to the solenoid wires was good. I had to take the top of the injection pump off which houses...
So today I got in there with a pick and tiny brass wire brush, and cleaned all the cruddy moving parts with pb blaster and brake parts cleaner, blowing it out often with compressed air. It took a little finess, but I got all the parts cleaned and moving. Put it back together, and it instantly...
I got the shut off solenoid off the top of the pump today. Plugged it in and grounded it and the solenoid works perfect. It was loud and easy to hear. So definitely something was holding it from releasing. The inner parts in the bowl beneath the solenoid was rusted up pretty good. I can't tell...
I did forget to mention the throttle lever on the pump was stuck when I tried the pedal. I disconnected the throttle cable and got it to free up with a little extra pressure. It started moving easily immediately. That's why I think the fuel shut off solenoid may be stuck also.
I recently picked up a m1025a2 hmmwv and I am diagnosing the no start problem. I fixed a leak from a cracked check valve on the return line. I have good pressure with no air at the bleed screw on the filter and the bleeder by the front wheel, but nothing when I crack open the injector lines. I...
Got mine today! Would not start. I suspect the high pressure pump under the manifold. Fuel came out the bleeder by the front wheel like crazy, but after cracking open a couple injector lines, I couldn't get fuel to come out
