    Different starters??

    Help! I need a couple of pictures! How many bolts hold the starter on? I can easily see one, but is there another hiding out of view?

    Fuel Guage issue....

    I put an ohmmeter on the sending unit and got no change in resistance when moving the float arm up and down. Based on this, I assume the sending unit is bad.

    Fuel Guage issue....

    I have the same issue. Tank is always full. I was able to get my arm in the fuel tank and move the float up and down. So the float is not stuck.

    Anyone have pictures of Group 31 batteries installed?

    That picture saved me tons of time! Thanks again! Can you also tell/show me where the connections from the solargizers are positioned? I don't see a second red wire in the picture.

    Ether start system...... Refill Process?

    So is it just a touch of the button once, or a press and hold? Does it meter a small amount, regardless of how long the button is pushed?

    Anyone have pictures of Group 31 batteries installed?

    Newb Oil question

    I searched the forums, but had too many results to be useful, so forgive me for beating the dead horse. My recently acquired M925 could benefit from some better cranking speed. I'm still sorting out the batteries and cables, but they should be OK. From what I have learned, it seems the...

    Anyone have pictures of Group 31 batteries installed?

    939 trucks and EMP

    ABS - Oh Well, bigger things to worry about. What about the control box? I saw that mentioned in another thread. Does anyone know what it does? Here are 2 links to discussion about the "box." http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/11557-trouble-shooting-protective-control-box-5-ton-2.html...

    Trouble-shooting the Protective Control Box in a 5-ton

    Is this box unique to the 8.3 powered 900 series trucks? It seems as if the newer trucks have the more complicated PCB.

    939 trucks and EMP

    Does anyone in the group have some information on how a 900 series truck would do if there were a serious EMP event? I haven't had a chance to crawl all over a truck and get up close for a detailed inspection of the various components. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
