could someone please tell me what amp rating the fuze should be for the turn signals? ive been looking all over and cant find the answer. there is a five amp installed that keeps blowing, im just wondering if the previous owner put the wrong one in. if you saw the wiring in this thing, you would...

yes with the key off, i got no volts on the black exciter wire. I got 12 volts on the red wire. both of these were with the key off and i checked them at the connector to the alternator. with the key on both were getting 12v. the link that you sent me didn't work but I have the TM that...

Warthog, your the best man, that's exactly what I was wanting to know! I haven't found the part number yet, but it doesn't look like the one in the illustration. It is a delco remey though. That tells me its a civilian type alternator. I have no problem with running one of them. I...

yes but my question is how is the best way to run it for a 12 volt. should the grounding strap still be on it? right now it is just set up like a normal civilian vehicle. im wondering if the alternator is fine, but just not good for this setup. i would like to know if i can just get an...

on second thought, i think ill just keep it at 12. i like the idea of a 24 volt starter but it did come with a block heater installed so the winter shouldn't be a problem. The thing i noticed is that the alternator is on the opposite side as it is supposed to be. im wondering if its...

so is each alternator a 24volt? or do two 12 volts make the 24 volts? i sure would like to look at one that is put together correctly so i coud copy it! im thinking it might just need another alternator and whatever it is that brings 24v to the starter.

ok, im getting 12v at the alternator. im not sure how to check the amps on it. i havnt learned how to do that on the multimeter yet. for amps mine goes from 9,1.5, 10 nd 200m. whats the 200m? im thinking this thing just has some regular old alternator on it. to answer davids question the...

warthog, i believe that all the sockets are working. when i turn the lights on without the red lenses in place, i can see that the lights come on. i know the bulbs are good because i swapped them from the known good side. im getting no voltage to that green wire, i even checked it closer up...

ya i agree i think the wiring is messed up to. im probably gonna take it back to origianal. i would rather have two alternators in case 1 goes bad. and for the other gentelman, thanks for the advice on the vacum lines, ill check it out, but i thought diesels dont produce vaccum?

ok im having this crazy turn signal problem. it works on the drivers side(all lights). the rear passenger side lights dont do anything under any circumstances. the passenger front turn signal light just lights up, no flashing. when I use the hazards, everything the front passenger side...

when i start my m1009 and it doesnt fire up right away, my batteries drain down. i just replaced both of them with exact replacements. 1000/850 cca each battery. also the guy that had it before me took out the two alternators and put a single one in. why would someone do that? im not sure if any...

can you put antique plates on it? im in virginia and that exempts me from smog/state inspection and just about everything else.

awesome info. @ OLG 81, could you point me in the right direction as far as that pmc stuff you were talking about for inspecting the truck? i did a thread search and came up with nothing. @ the other guys, thanks a bunch also, i will try the rust converter, i heard it works good. ill...

Mpg hey what do you get in the way of miles per gallon. Im just trying to get a rough estimate before I drop a bunch of money on a truck. also I heard that the 6.2L doesnt produce alot of torque compared to newer era diesels. anyone got any insite?
