They won't ever charge the same. If you get 2 back to life, dump the other 2 and go with it. If not, get a couple civi truck batteries and run them in series. I've got a couple of group 31s from NAPA. No issues with starting even when cold.
FWIW, I picked up my 923A2 from Leonard Wood and had fuel starvation issues from the start. Ended up replacing filter and bypassing tank. Cut line before filter and ran to tank in bed (also reroute return line). Got it home where I could work on it and discovered I couldn't get fuel from the...
Well. Leak located. (Sort of). Oil mist coming from the output coupling on the rear diff. Guess I get to figure out which hub seal is AFU. Found out my impact gun doesn't have the balls to remove a 1 1/2" lug nut tightened by probably the strongest Soldier B ever to walk the earth. (Yep, I'm...
I would normally agree with you. If someone brought the truck back to me with 2 broken parts, I'd blame the driver! I think they've been leaking for a while. I had blinking highway light for a long time after picking up truck and the 5 blinking lights. Fixed
Some obvious leaks and seemed like...
Actually no. Drove to the end of mile section and back. Then drove out in field and back to shop. Tested brakes a few times. Wasn't crazy with it. Never threw any mud.
Well, the CTIS on my M923A2 has been intermittent since I got the truck. Seemed like it was working fairly well today on the test drive. It would go from solid Hwy to flashing highway over a few minutes. All of a sudden, I get 5 flashing lights. I'm thinking now would be a good time to check for...
I had the same problem on my recent recovery from Ft. Leonard Wood. I ended up with a plastic 26gal tank in the bed and some extra fuel line to get home. Fuel tank had rust and probably other nasties in it from sitting since 2011. Dump the tank, replace the filters (again if you have to), I...
Picture of truck and my fuel source feeding into primary fuel filter.
Other than a leaky front right tire where the stems screw into the wheel, no other issues. Going to fix the leak and play with CTIS in the weeks to come. Had no problems keeping highway speeds. Surprised how well the truck...
I am going to at mine up as 3/1 phase switchable (not recommended for beginners!). It's not too big of a deal to wire a 12 lead generator for single (split) 120/240. There's probably a diagram under the cover of the generator end j-box.
If all you need is single phase, rewire gen head for...
Three phase is easy! What kind of parts do you need? Mine doesn't really have an ECU. It's all analog gauges and discrete parts for voltage and freq regulators.
If you have electronics and they're trashed, you should check out Deep Sea Electronics or FW Murphy. They have a bunch of different...
Home as of 1830. Bypassed tank. Replaced all filters. Ran 55-65 all the way down I-44 after about 10 miles trial run on old 66. Had a tire that kept losing air (slowly). Stopped every 30 minutes to air back up. Bypassed CTIS and installed valve stem. Still leaking where both valve stems bolt...
