    '84 M1009 - Won't crank - 12v Roscommon converted

    i thought it might be a bad solenoid, as well, so I purchased one last night, a cheap one (replacing my AC Delco D1777), but still had the same results.

    '84 M1009 - Won't crank - 12v Roscommon converted

    just tried a wire to jump the starter relay, but nothing....purple to purple...nothing.... tried the wire from the hot post on the solenoid to the grounding post (small wire)...and it clicked, sparked a little ....but nothing.

    '84 M1009 - Won't crank - 12v Roscommon converted

    I tried removing the starter relay and jumping the purple and red wire by inserting a paper clip in both slots. Nothing happened when I tried to crank it. No...I never did the DH upgrade, as I wasn't sure it needed to be done with the 12v conversion in place. I have the part to do the...

    '84 M1009 - Won't crank - 12v Roscommon converted

    No noise at all. Acts like it's not getting power to the starter. Crazy thing is that it was working perfectly. I was driving it , went to park it, then it wouldn't start again.... Ugggg... Yes..Looks like I'll have to find out where that box is with the VM......

    New M1008. Many different issues.

    There is a shop in Lewisville who has rebuilt mine, twice. It's a little bit of a haul, but he has been in business for 30 years and does good work. PM me if you want the name of the shop and contact info.

    M1009 - Winshield wiper blades not touching glass to clean - bend or reset?

    Looks like even is Texans are going to have a hard winter this year, which we need. :) Problem down here is that we get ice.

    M1009 - Winshield wiper blades not touching glass to clean - bend or reset?

    yep...replaced the blades. I tried the original size called for and then the 18" blades. It may be that the 18" blades are not fitting. I'll check that again before looking at replace the wiper.

    M1009 - Winshield wiper blades not touching glass to clean - bend or reset?

    I had not driven my CUCV in the rain/ice until this week and when I went to turn on the wipers I found that the passenger side blade is not touching the glass when it moves. It may be touching a little bit, but not enough to clean the glass or keep the rain off the windshield on the passenger...

    Thanks! The brand is Tuff Liner, which I had never heard of before. The owner os the company has been in business for 20+ years and mainly does work for dealers and oil/gas industry. This would be their first project of this kind and he asked me if they could do it and use the results for...

    M1009 - Stripping it down to "bedline" the entire truck, inside and out

    Yeah, I've Then hoping to see one in person, but I have not. Another reason for the liner on the outside is for the extracurricular activities that I do. This will be going into areas where I do not want to scratch a nice paint job. My thought is that if I have a bedliner on the outside...
