    The carter I've installed in 4 cucvs now. Not sure what you're old one was. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    NO START.. M1031 12v Doghead

    Ok. If the relay is clicking then you're testing the wrong side. You need to cross the 2 wires on top of the relay. They're the controlled side. If you have a volt meter with the key on the red wire on top should have 12 volts. Maybe the fuse going to that wire doesn't have power. Sent from my...

    NO START.. M1031 12v Doghead

    You know if the starter is clicking or the glow plug relay? What's clicking. The doghead relay shouldn't be clicking. If you can jump it underneath at the starter, then giving the same wire power should start the truck. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    NO START.. M1031 12v Doghead

    You should be able to jump the big red and purple wires on top of that relay and get the starter to go. Fat screwdriver works. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    CUCV early Glow Plug burn out - What is the cause?

    My first batch with this guy was late 2019. Those 2 trucks still have those pumps in them. He has pallets of these why they are so cheap. There's a small demand for it. How long should pumps last though? They only take 25 minutes to swap out. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    CUCV early Glow Plug burn out - What is the cause?

    It happens. I get surplus ones on ebay. Been working for years plus I got a few as backups. https://ebay.us/m/2Lkpf5 Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    CUCV early Glow Plug burn out - What is the cause?

    I don't think you'll pull anything out of the bottom drain as it's for water not fuel. The top one is a direct port from the lift pump to the filter Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    CUCV early Glow Plug burn out - What is the cause?

    Pull a vacuum from the bleeder on top of the filter housing, not the hoses. The plastic plug on top, unscrew that and hook to the output on the left side on top. Or just crack it and turn over the motor. It takes a bunch of cranks. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    M1009 fuel tank builds vacuum when driving

    I guess you could do that. I just got new used ones when it did it. They'll build pressure on a low tank on a hot day, too. Could be you're getting pressure and not vacuum in the tank. No way to really know. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Need help in New Mexico

    Leaving it 24 volt is easier than changing it to 12. There's several good write ups on how to diagnose the alternators. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Question for every cucv owner

    Do you have the truck or blazer. Blazer has no problem going 60 all day. Truck gets to maybe 65 depending on tire size. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk
