    after 5 years of fighting dla.... WE WIN

    DLA=Defense Logistics Agency I was wondering why the Marines are able to pay a contractor to remove the restricted armor, commo and armament parts to be sold as scrap separately from the HMMWV, but all the US Army HMMWVs, are destroyed by a contractor, paid by US Taxpayer money, then all sold...

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    I'm hoping I can remove the throttle shaft out the driver side without removing the governor/guide pin, the governor on spring still moves front to rear, so engaging the notch again on re install "should" not be a problem. I saw on BoobTube somebody altering the governor rotations to coax more...

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    That drawing covers both 6.2l NA TH400 3speed and 6.5l NA & Turbo 4L80E 4 Speed. Instructions refer to inset bubble pics with specific instructions that differ between the 3 drivetrains. I was hoping somebody here had already done this, could verify removing that removing Allen screw Part...

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    I bought mine from Jegs last fall with a 20% off coupon. It comes disassembled, mine had some faults in construction, the 4 position quadrants on the lower legs were welded on wrong, the cross way support strut was too narrow to lock into the notches. I cut the welds, pried them off with a...

    Stripped Geared Hub Drain Plug...good extraction methods?

    I tack welded a Harbor Freight 3/8" drive hex key to the drain plug. Then bought a Craftsman 3/8" drive hex key to replace it in my tools. And I did disconnect the batteries and Smart Start Box before MIG welding the drain plug, as others here have recommended.

    Thoughts on Injection pump rebuilders or remanufactures?

    Diesel Care & Performance in TN was recommended to me by Rob R. He owns several HMMWV as well as sells parts from time to time. I trust his judgement. I contacted them about a DB2831-5149 for 6.5l NA M1025A2 but, have decided to attempt to replace the throttle valve O rings myself, which...

    Finally mounting my airlift bumper.

    I used a 20 ton air over hydraulic bottle jack on a cinder block, then a 4x4x6 wood block and 2x4x6 wood block between the jack ram and the body tub. Lift the body tub slightly to take pressure off the frame rail/body mount bracket cross bolts. Use impact wrench to remove the 1/2"-13 cross...

    HMMVW need help with Injection pump

    I'm disabled, I bought a High Top Creeper from Jegs, since I can't contortion my body around the front A Arms and splash guards to get to the 3 5 pt T25 screws on top the DB2. Its going to be so much easier for me to use an electric hoist on my oak tree to lift off the hood so I can roll...

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    The 6.5L Turbo Doghouse: You can poprivet/cherry rivet/Permasilk the trim pieces in place then use a sawzall to remove the excess body hull that sticks out past the trim.

    Thank you, this is relevant to my current motorpool gremlin issues. Ordered a fixed screwdriver a well as a 1/4" drive socket bit.

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    I have a 6.5l GEP-Turbo engine up in Navarre, FL, that I will be listing for sale soon. I have the doghouse opening trim pieces, too, and maybe a turbo doghouse that needs a tiny bit of fiberglass patching.

    Humvee Cranking But Not Starting

    Think maybe the backflow valve on your fuel/water filter inlet was clogged or gummed closed? I was told that valve isn't really needed, by one of the professional HMMWV wrenches. I'm just a parts changer who can read the 3rd grade level TMs and the M998A1 AMG Troubleshooting TM. Mattguy, I...
