    M1009 nc

    Change out the fuel filter, read up on it so that you can bleed it out properly. I'm thinking that it might be partly clogged as you could only maintain 25mph on a 8% grade.

    Won trailer for M1008

    I towed mine back from up near Ft Drum, Actually from Dogheads. With my E250, I had magnetic lights duct taped to the shackels, I had a plate for in in the truck. Took the spare from my M1008. It towed like a dream at 70/75 MPH with full cover on. Left DH's about 2100 hrs and arrived home at 300.

    6.2 minimum head thickness?

    Flyingfrog, I had my heads off last winter for the same reason. I read that if it hydrolocks you could possibly bend a connecting rod. You can probably have the heads off in 2.5 to 3 hrs, I was using a air ratchet for take down, not for build up. I had one cracked head that had to be replaced...

    Inner fender replacement

    I was scanning the TM's last night looking to find the procedure to remove the M1008 heater core and I came across a section on fender and inner removal. I didn't find what I was looking for, But I did see the fender subject in the -34 IIRC.
