Check for a stuck Gen2 relay under the dash next to the starter relay as mentioned above diodes behind the dash. There was an earlier post that had pictures of all the locations for diodes and relays behind the dash (Thanks Warthog)...

Go to the TM link below there is an illustration on page 539 of 724 or section 249 in the TM. The TM does not call out any difference between 208 and a 205 so I do not know if there is a difference I have only worked on m1009s that have the 208 that uses the "adapter", item#8. TM 9-2320-289-20P

If you did not feel the tip break off and the glow plug came right out, the tip was most likely burned off from either the military or GL starting the vehicle on starting fluid. Run it if it did not surface or make noise in the 30 min. you had the truck running its most likely gone.

Disclaimer statement: what I have seen and I could bewrong, the drivers side rear on the floor that is for mounting a fuel can bracket unless you are talking right behind the drivers seat that is the rifle bracket, as for the dash bracket thats for mounting radio speakers, mic hooks and even...

You say "i started on the other side where the other glow plug head broke" How did it break with a GP (glow plug) puller or pliers? If you used a GP uller to remove the glow plugs the head may have popped off and dropped into the cylinder, if you did not use a puller and the tip was missing when...

The only problem I had getting mine registered and titled in Michigan was the VIN and the "J" designation for the engine, apperently the book the girl was looking in, while completeing the VIN for the title form, did not list a J so I said it was a diesel when she asked me what engine it had...

The brake assist is done through a hydroboost system that gets its pressure from the power steering pump. If the pump is not putting out the fluid volume or fluid pressure needed the pedal will firm up till pressure and volume recovers then pull the pedal down again. The same thing used to...

Firecontrol86, we are talking about the gear ratios in the front and rear diff. in the axles. As far as I know the only gearing you can change in the trans would be a first gear set for drag racing applications or adding some type of gear vendor over drive unit to the trans.

Sounds like another victim of a faulty starter relay under the dash and a blow fusable due to the over loaded circuit/current draw of the starter cranking. Replace the starter relay and upgrade (using the link supplied) then replace the blow fusable link...

Let me clarify the pic of the white plate that came on my truck is from Michigan and still in Michigan I posted it in response to two statements "never once saw a military vehicle with a license plate" and "There is no such thing as a licence plate for an MV". I have other pics of similar plates...

Its a standard automotive relay and there should actually be 2 of them there, I know one is for the secondary alternator but I am not sure what the other one is for. I have a tool box full of EEC power and ABS relays I get from Ford vehicles when I hit the salvage yards and they work fine...

Here is a picture of the plate that was mounted on the back of my M1009 that was broken off and thrown in the back looks like a license plate to me.

Some guys do not like or trust the OEM starter relay as they have been know to stick and burn up the wiring and or starter. One guy I work with cut the connector off and installed a Ford starter relay so you may want to go that route. My 1009 had the original still mounted in place and another...

I mounted mine where Joe had it mounted, on the tailgate, GL must have broken it off when they got the vehicle ready to sell and threw it in the back of the truck. I used the same bolts to mount the plate I just added a light from a trailer place and drilled holes to run wires to the light...

Believe it or not try a Chevy dealer you would be surprised the parts that are still available.

My 2 cents, bid worst case senerio like I did on my rusty Michigan NG unit. Bid what you are willing to spend and if you lose you lose no big deal there will be more. Jumped it with the forklift and drove it on the trailer. Only need batteries and glow plugs. I have now driven it 100 miles and...

No meets that I attend just got my second MV. I have been doing the Hot Rod/muscle car thing for years and only the military vehicle thing on road trips to Ohio, PA, and Aberdeen with my brother-in-law for the last 20 plus years. Willing to meet though I just got my plates today so mine will be...
