I've read several threads on transfer case leaks, and they say to check the vent first. The guy I bought it from painted the entire under carriage, so it may be painted shut. I've looked through TM 9-2320-289-20 CH 5 and 6 and can't find the vent.
Does anyone have a picture, or can you...
My m1009 leaks a little bit of transmission fluid from the front drive-shaft seal on the transfer case.
Can you add "Bar's Stop Leak" to the transfer case to swell the seals? Will it gum-up the gears or just not work since it's not pumped?
Thanks for all your advice. The cucv is running...
JB weld seems to be holding fine, but I don't think this was the source of the original air getting in not letting the filter prime.

Pressurized the fuel tank with compressor, and the filter leaked. If going the...
It sounds liked filling the sensor hole should be the first step since the sensor is wet, everything worked before opening the filter, and there were no fuel leaks at the base before. Do you think I should test it to make sure the sensor hole is were it is sucking air (not letting it prime)...
Markg, the truck was running again before this. I drove it around and let it idle for about half an hour.
ill try to include a picture of the wet foam on the sensor.
Doghead, thanks for the quick reply! I bought the battery tester, and the batteries are both good. I feel like I'm going to drain the batteries again if I keep cranking it so much.
the white plastic circle with a foam looking center looked dirty. Should I take it out and clean it with...
Does anyone know why the m1009 fuel filter will not prime. Followed tm 9-3220-289-20 3-17 fuel filter maint bleeding.
removed old filter. Filled input port of new filter with some diesel and installed.
Cap off. Tube on port and routed to bottle (lower and higher than vent plug port)...
