I just got around to removing my pintle hook and plug for a trailer. Once I removed the plug there were two leads (male and female) left on the harness. Should I plug these in together? Now that I removed the plug I am blowing light and signal fuses and, i believe, my flasher. Any...

This business that GL has going is such a crock. They nickel and dime the hell out of you! Now that I finally got my SF-97 (what's that, about 60 bucks)I thought I was in the clear. Wrong. I went to DMV and got a temp plate and paid my taxes so I could go through emissions so I could get a...

On my 1008 the steering wheel is (and has been since I got it) postioned 90 degrees to the right. The alignment of the front wheels is fine and the truck doesnt drift or pull but since the blinker is deactivated by a cam in the column, it won't stay on during a right turn! Can I adjust this...

I am trying to register my 1008 in Connecticut but am having a hard time. My cucv didnt come with a title so I have to get a signed form from the base that I bought it saying that it has no title. Does this sound right? Thanks Andy

So I have done alot of reading on the subject of the glowplug switch here and I think I know what I'm doing (always a dangerous proposition) but I like to make sure. So for those of you that have wired in a button or switch - I cut the blue wire going from the relay (is this the same blue wire...

I just got my fuel issue figured and wouldnt you know it, I ran into a glow plug problem. This is whats happening: My relay used to click and now it doesnt. I checked the voltage at the top post and it reads 24v. I checked the coltage at the two small posts and they both read 12v. The bottom...

So what have you guys done about the bent driveshafts? Can they be repaired? mine doesnt appear to be too bad but does create quite the vibration around 30+. Where are you getting replacements? Andy

Well I was all pumped up becuase I just got my truck running and I was looking forward to a nice drive this morning but when I went out to start it, it cranked for about 10 seconds and wouldnt start. No fuel again. Anyway I let the starter cool for a minute and tried it again and nothing. I...

I am taking the cover off of my injector pump today and am hoping to find major blockage. My question is what do the shutoff solenoid and cold advance solenoid do in the injector pump do? Along with trying to get my truck running, I am also trying to educate myself here so I can help people...

Hey guys. I am thinking of getting new batteries for my 08 but want to make sure mine are totally shot before I replace them. Peace of mind, ya know? So they are not strong enough to turn over the engine more than a couple of times and they won't accept much charge at all but when I volt...

What is the replacement battery at the local autoparts store? Is there a direct replacement for the stock one? Are they the same as civi models? I want to call around and see if I can find a pair tomorrow. Thanks, Andy

Hey guys. I am replacing the fuel pump and had a question. I found a great write up on CK5 about pump replacement but was wondering if I had to touch the pushrod? If I just swap out pumps do I have to remove this and reposition? The TM says not to touch it if just replacing the pump. Anyone...

Ok guys I am not getting any fuel to the filter. I disconnected the pink wire and cranked it for a while let it sit and did it some more and nothing. Is there any other possibility besides the fuel pump? I included some pics of my new rig, the old relay and a few others for all you pic...

Hey guys I have been searching and learning alot from this board and since I just picked up a m1008 I decided to join and contribute where I can. I have couple of questions about my new rig however. I tried to start it for the first time yesterday after getting it home and it would crank...
