    Reliable injection pump rebuild services

    Just purchase new. I went through this and ultimately decided on a new unit. I am much happier with my decision because I never need to look back and say “what if”. The price of rebuilt is not attractive enough to make any other decision in my mind. Replacing an injection pump in these vehicles...

    Curiosity: How to enrich AF when a turbo is added?

    Plenty of posts on opening IP and turning 1/6 turn and advancing IP. Assuming you don’t want to pull your IP to adjust… there is a skill to finding the ball tipped Alan key area to turn

    Injection Pump Reinstall Problem on 6.5 Turbo

    When facing this issue, I went with a new pump as per RWH advice. Rebuilt only seems cheaper till there are issues. I feel your pain. We all do.

    No-start update...

    Thanks BullDogger: My signature line contains the link to PCB and such. I encourage members to DIY. If they PM me I can also help them obtain an affordable option.

    Anyone else need to arrange shipping after receiving their EUC.😉

    USA has redefined “drop shipping” post tariffs. CCP will never be able to match this. (Yeah, pic stolen from unknown source’s account on the Internet)

    BATTERY CHARGER FRIED STUFF...???

    Coug is 100%. If glow plugs fried then PCB/EESS box is suspect, and charger getting blamed/framed. YouTube contains a lot of crap too.

    How many RPMs should a Humvee 1165 6.5 L turbo

    I missed the TEST DROVE part until TND’s above post. I agree with TND! If you don’t know anything about these trucks and you are driving a truck that is having mechanical issues, you are in for a world of hurt. Learn, read, and don’t purchase unless you have double the money to work on...

    How many RPMs should a Humvee 1165 6.5 L turbo

    Respectfully, I like to start things from the bottom and work up. Have you ensured that you are shifting into first and second and third and fourth gear? Have you insured that you are not stuck in limp mode? Have you ensured the transmission lock up is occurring at highway speed and that the...

    Big block, twin turbos

    Beautiful. One concern whilst you are mocking things up… Respectfully… Hot brake fluid is a setup for disaster. Fluid bubbles, burnt fluid, all not great. That driver side turbo seems too close to the brake lines and the master cylinder IMHO. I’m also wondering about the proximity of the...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Some have tabs, others might describe theirs as grapefruits or palmellos. My condolences.
