The TMs are much to large to print out. Since I am a new CUCV owner and still trying to learn my way around. I thought about printing out small sections of the TMs I could place in a notebook for quick access. I have downloaded most of TMs. The notebook could be useful since I don't have...

Thanks everyone for your input. I look to tackle the hot hard starting problem in the next week. As mistaken1 pointed out the IP could be the issue. As I pointed out above. We had a small leak on IP plug, and previous owner did replace with a rebuilt IP. Who rebuilt IP?? I hope I don't...

I hate to hear you have to part with your CUCV. I am a new CUCV owner almost 3 months now. jdeoliveira74, I followed your input concerning on how to quieten down the CUCV. Your input will be missed, maybe you can find a way to keep it? Thank you for your advice. stationjj

IP timing? This is new to me. Another interesting idea. I do suspect this CUCV is 12-18 months off Camp Shelby. So yes you could consider it fresh off a base. The previous owner did replace IP, and other repairs and sold it to me. Did he confirm timing of IP? I will need research IP...

Matt, Thanks for your input. Where in Alabama are you? I grew up in north Alabama. Fuel pressure on IP interesting idea. Oddly, after purchase of CUCV I put it on a rack to check underneath. We found some minor oily base leakage. Without fully removing IP we determined it was coming from...

I have 84 M1009 with hard starting issues. I know this topic has been covered many times on the site. I have poured through countless threads and reviewed TMs searching for some clues to what may be causing the hard starting issues. Brief history, I purchased this CUCV from a individual in...

Good thread. My concerns and questions are. If I go to Junk yard I got more seat than I know what too choose from. I am what you consider a newbie. What seats work best in a CUCV? I don't want to buy a seat, and I find out later I got modification issues. Also has anyone refurbished...

I just bought one as a spare. Since I am finding they are hard to find. One I got is new and I got free fast shipping. stationjj

Where can I find military specific parts for a M1009? I am looking for rubber grommet that attached to the top for the M1009. It's part of the radio and antenna bracket. I suspect it's where the antenna cable ran through. It's item 2 in figure 202 in the -20p TM. Part Number 15599990...

Thanks everyone for your input. You gave me a lot of ideas to go on. I like the A/C from a cooler. I could use it different situations besides CUCV. I found a 48 quart unit completely built out on Amazon for $314 with shipping. It's pricey, but cheaper than the arctic air units. Search for...

I am a new CUCV M1009 owner. Summer 2012 is almost here. I live in Middle Tennessee. I enjoying driving my CUCV, and like to haul my dog around with me in the back seat. On a few trips it's got hot, especial if your not moving. Traffic will bake you. I have concerns with my dog. I provide...

I bought my M1009 CUCV with 24 volt still intact. When I purchased this CUCV I didn't want to do any major changes. Now after owning the CUCV for a few months now, I am considering a change to 12 volt. I read the PDF from REC (Roscommon Equipment Company) on converting to 12 volt. A...

My CUCV is getting harder to start. I purchased a M1009 from a private individual recently. He had replaced the IP, starter, and GP card and relay. After some research on SS I have no doubt I got plow plug issues. I am looking for good GPs that are ok with 24 Volt and easy install. Here is...

I am a new CUCV M1009 owner. I just got my CUCV a week ago. I try to do most work myself on the CUCV. On other things I carry to someone with more experience than myself. We got my CUCV on rack and for over 28 years old it looked better than I thought it would. We found 2 small leaks from a...

Thanks for the input. I like the rubber mat idea. This will allow me to remove mats from floor. I got 2 - 2X4 feet mats from Tractor Supply for $34. I may try this. Stationjj

I recently got my 1984 M1009 CUCV Blazer. I am in the process of replacing most seal around door, windows, gate window, and hard top shell. Looking through LMC I think I have found most of what I am looking for. The one seal that bugs me is seal on the side and come to the rear tail gate...

I just got purchased a CUCV M1009. I am a newbie. I have a few rust spots not to bad. I have placed an order for POR 15 to prevent any further rusting after repairs are made. I am looking to place rubber matting in the cab area while also reducing the noise level an heat. From my research I...
