Cancel my last i was in a hurry and did not read your next post. Does anyone know where i can get a glow plug tool. The company is currently out of stock.
I cleaned out the tank to my m886 last week. I loosened up the three straps and was able to move the tank enough to get to the filler hose on top of the tank. Attempting to remove the filler hose with the tank (as a unit) was not practical. I was then able to remove all three straps and lower...
I have heard that a filament from a two filament brake light could have an internal short and cause the signals to flash when the braked are applied. It could be some thing related. I would replace the bulbs and see what happens. It could be as easy as swapping left and right side bulbs and...
It was really interesting If I can find one if good condition with a reasonable price I would definately try to get it; This one actaully had a suction outlet and an airconditioner in the aambulance body.
Just in case anyone is interested I removed the litter carriers ect. from a j20 jeep. The boxes are almost idenitcal to the M886. The benches were secured with Torx 30 screws. Too bad the j-20 was nothing but a rust bucket when i found it, otherwise it would be sitting in my to-do pile.
I took the alt off Sunday and had it checked it checked out at 14.7 volts. The machine would not show amperage but it checked out good. I dont have the TM downloaded yet between working 2 jobs and everything else i have to do time is tight any suggestions would be appreciated.
Can anyone advise which alt. charges the front battery. I have been looking but cant find the thread I need this morning. My gen #2 light began flickering when I turn the head light on. I checkec and only have battery voltage at the front battery. I have charging voltage at the rear battery...
What items did you have to swap out. I'm guessing the motor and switch at least. Was all of the wiring correct? I am trying to locate the hub caps for the front any ideas where i could find some.
I guess i forgot to add that the bottom of the driver's door was completely rusted out and there were holes rusted through in the hood. It was still a good buy.
Just got my second blazer this week. The wipers run very slow. If you pull them off of the windshield they seem to run at the normal speed. The system voltage is good. Has anyone had this problem before. Thanks in advance.
Can anyone advise what type of tools are required to remove the interior from a m886 ambulance. I have located one that has all of the fixtures in the patient area. The problem is its a long way from home and i want to make sure i have the tools I need. I think it requires a special socket...
I bought a m886 from a guy in South Carolina. He now has the SC title for it. I am going to meet him Friday to get the title signed over to me. Do i have to have a vin number verification before i can get the title in North Carolina.
I recently purchased a m886 for 700. I drove it about 50 miles home with no problems. It looked good but i later learned the front end had been replaced with a civilian front end, grille, hood, fenders and doors. It runs good and has had alot of brake work. The ambulance body has been...
I just picked up a m422a1. Among the many things i need is a mechanical fuel pump. Does anyone know of a cross over number for the pump so i can get one locally. I need rings , wheel cylinders and brake shoes as well.
thanks
