I have a friend who runs his f250 on a mix of filtered vegetable oil, diesel, gas, and a diesel additive. I put a little in my cucv m1009 and it seemed to run fine, although it was a little harder to start. Does anyone else run this? Concerns/Complaints about this setup. The veggie oil is...
I recently purchased a 84 cucv m1009 that has a 4" lift and 35" mud terrains on it. As far as I know everything is stock on it. Are there certain components I need to upgrade to be able to offroad this without breaking stuff. I know the rear-end is weak, but what else. I am told that the...

I guess it was the transfer case. I went 4-wheeling today and checked the fluid before I left as per your recommendation. It was full but continued to make the noise on the trip there. Once I got there my buddy drove his 4 runner up these rocks in 2wd. I decided I should put it in 4 because I...
Hello,
I just purchased a 1984 cucv m1009 blazer with a 6.2 detroit diesel. After playing with it this afternoon I have some questions. What is the switch that is depressed as the gas pedal is applied? Also when climbing hills I can here a sound that sounds like a hand crank winch being wound...
