    IP upgrade

    Are there any new/upgraded/improved parts that can be installed in an IP when rebuilding it? Or is a rebuild pretty much going to use stock parts albeit new

    Fuel Filter base and fuel lines

    No warranty left... 12mo/100kmiles Not a bad idea though. Can you still get "new" IPs?

    Fuel Filter base and fuel lines

    The pump is new... but I have not "checked" per se. I don't have any drips under the pump in the valley. Glow plugs are new... manual glow plugs control... but it happens even on hot days and if it sits for an hour after driving it.

    Fuel Filter base and fuel lines

    I replaced my oem filter with a generic spin on base and filter and installed an electric fuel pump. I have been having hard start issues if the truck sits for any time. I moved the pump to the frame rail so I was "pushing" fuel to the filter and IP. This didn't solve the issue. What I'd...

    M1009, A/C and Banks Turbo

    Honestly, I hadn't thought that far. I am in Afghanistan for the next 11 months and I'm trying to plan out installing A/C when I get back. My truck has been converted to 12V and as I think about it now, I might pull the power strips off the firewall and put the second batter in the civilian...

    M1009, A/C and Banks Turbo

    Oh. For some reason I thought it was on the right side... in that case, I guess it will be easier to do than i thought. Thanks for the info

    M1009, A/C and Banks Turbo

    I have an 85 M1009 that I put a new Banks Turbo on a few years ago. Now I'd like to put A/C. Since the factory A/C pump goes on the same side as the turbo (I think), how would one go about installing A/C on a M1009 with a Banks System? Is there an after market system that mounts to the left...

    oil pump

    Turned out that there was an extra o-ring in the pickup tube that goes from the trans filter to the transmission body... the guy claimed that his book called for two but the TM only shows one. It was sucking air and causing the pump to make the sound... burned out the torque converter and...

    air leak

    I was having an air leak issue in my fuel lines and I though it was because I was pulling the fuel to the front of the truck. So, I put the pump on the frame rail in the middle of the truck so it would push into the filters and IP. So, now when the tank is 1/4 or lower and it sits over night...

    alt/charging issues

    It was a bad two year old battery... Thanks for the help... While we are here and to avoid starting a new thread... probably a stupid question, but all of the wires that went to the left alt... can they be removed? I'd really like to only have wires that are functional. Seems like the...

    alt/charging issues

    I put a meter on the alt... The BIG red wire gets 14v The small red from the square plug gets 14v The black from the square plug gets 14v With the truck running the batteries show 14v here are some more photos

    alt/charging issues

    The batteries are not bulging Here is a pic of the right alt... it is grounded to the intake plenum... What else would you like to see?

    fuel lines

    So you are saying that when you crack the cap open, it should *NOT* suck air into the tank? If that is the case... mine is doing that.... and where do we get new caps?

    alt/charging issues

    Will a bad voltage regulator kill my batteries? Over/under charge? Not charge at all?

    alt/charging issues

    I don't know for sure if the Rosscommon conversion was used as I didn't do it... but after reading it and seeing how my system is laid out it appears that the Rosscommon conversion was used.... I always wondered why there was a bunch of extra wires on the left side of the engine... I'll get...

    alt/charging issues

    I think I am having alt/charging issues. My 1009 has been converted to 12V and I only have the right alternator. My batteries are about 2yrs old and I use a solargizer for passive maintenance. I put an after market volt meter in and it read about 14V fro a long time.... now it is pegged above...

    air in fuel system

    I moved the fuel pump to the frame rail on the passenger side where the steel line goes from inside the frame to outside. I turned on the pump and could see the pump pushing fuel and air (since I opened the line to put the pump in). I started it and it ran and died as usual but then I only...

    push or pull the fuel

    Is it better to push or pull the fuel through the filter e.g lift pump sits between the filter and the IP pulling through the filter and pushing to the IP or the lift pump sits between the tank and the filter pushing to the filter and IP
