I have been searching and reading the forum and the manuals and I can't find anything definitive on making the volt meter work in a 12 v system. I found a thread with pictures that shows a 300 ohm resistor but my meter doesn't look like the one in the pic...

Is there anyone in San Antonio that could do me a huge favor? I need someone to pick up some parts, strap them to a pallet and drop them off at a freight company's dock. I'd be willing to compensate with some federal reserve notes.

So, this is the second time I have broken a starter bolt off in the block. I did some searching on the forum and found that there is a bracket that supports the front of the starter. I don't have this bracket and that is prolly what is causing the bolts to break. Anyone have a picture of the...

I'm getting a clunking in the rear when I lift off the throttle or coast down hill. I replaced my drive shaft u-joints and it is still happening. It happens at all speeds and the rate of clunk is hand in hand with the speed of the vehicle. clunk-clunk ... clunk-clunk ... clunk-clunk like...

When I brake and come to a stop, sometimes, when I accelerate, I get this bump, more of a bumm sound. It seems to be coming from the rear. I don't even know where/ how to start trouble shooting that. It is not a clunk or a thud... the only way I can describe it is a soft bumm and it doesn't...

I though I'd post some pictures of my WVO tank I had built. enjoy

Has anyone removed the stock fuel filter and replaced it with a screw-on type? I'd like to get rid of the stock filter and replace it with a cheaper screw-on type but I don't know how to remove the OEM filter mount which is also the fuel cut-off (isn't it)

I think I found out why I killed my starter...when I park in the part of my driveway that is sloped I have to crank the engine an excessive amount in the morning then I get a high rev start then it dies... then more cranking with the pedal floored... then it starts. So, my question is... why...

I have a problem this morning... My wife went out to take the kids to school and tried to start the truck (M1009). Well it turned over a few times and then turned like the batteries were dying. So I tried to jump it with my civy diesel van... no luck. I put it on a charger for about an hour...
