    LMTV (M1079) STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING

    Wow! I really appreciate all the assistance. When I get a chance, I believe I will start with checking the vacuum on the fuel tank. Unfortunately, life happens, and I have not had time to work on it. I will eventually get to it. You fellas have provided enough information to help me to trace...

    LMTV (M1079) STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING

    I appreciate the video (I watched it). My situation is that the vehicle runs fine for about 15 miles/20 minutes, and then it shuts itself off. I can wait a little time and it will start up and run again. The longer I let it sit, the longer it will run, until it shuts off. I believe it has...

    LMTV (M1079) STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING

    I have a 2004 M1079, that I purchased some time back. While driving the vehicle it will eventually stop running/shut off. I drive it, maybe 15 miles, then it dies. I am assuming it has something to do with the temperature (coolant). I then have to wait 15-20 minutes and it will start right up...

    LMTV M1079 Air compressor (brakes/tires) not inflating.

    Way cool. It worked! Thanks. The air dryer had a triangle, three bolt, mounting plate, which held the 90 degree elbow to the assembly. After removal, there was a course, threaded bolt that appeared to push a rubber diaprahm. I removed the bolt (not much more I could do, at this point), and...

    LMTV M1079 Air compressor (brakes/tires) not inflating.

    Help! Once again, I am not a savvy computer guy. I looked through the forums (so much information), to see if I could find any threads for air problems/trouble-shooting. My LMTV starts, idles; however, my tires and brakes are not airing up. I usually start my LMTV monthly, and I noticed this...

    M1079 runs hot and shuts down

    I must admit, I am not a Forum savvy kinda guy. I did not have much luck finding what I was looking for. I have a 2004 S & S M1079 (LMTV) that runs hot and shuts itself down. I replaced the coolant and when I did there were small pieces of red plastic in the coolant. About 6 pieces of all...

    Electrical - Bus bar question

    I do not have a radio yet; but, I do plan on putting one in. So, it should not be needed for a standard AM/FM radio?

    Electrical - Bus bar question

    What is the purpose of the (looks like a grounding wire with a diode) between the positive and the negative bus bars located on the firewall in the engine compartment. Mine is broke in two; but 85 Blazer still runs. Is it for some kind of noise suppression? Anyway, I guess I need to replace it...

    Looking for the correct color interior for M1009

    I am working on my 1985 Blazer and I searched a long time to find what I was looking for. I ended up with USA1Industries. I ordered from LMC and it was not what I wanted (the rear seat cover did not cover the entire seat). USA1Industries is now making the seat covers, they call them mahogany...
