Understood. I was unsure about doing so, which is why I included the link. Thanks for the proper etiquette.

Raycor spin on fuel filter - bleeding air out of system? (Troubleshooting) I am changing threads on an ongoing issue, as I have gone through and corrected the electrical issues, I believe..I hope..I pray!!! Question is whether or not the process for bleeding the air out of the fuel line is the...

Batteries new and fully charged, per my charger. Starter working fast, well. New GP's. power to GP relay Not starting. I'm wondering if it is a fuel issue? I replaced the pump a couple of weeks ago. Did not bleed the air out. It started and ran fine, but has not since then. Possibility...

Ok....I just replaced the glow plugs with new ones. Tried starting it...NOTHING!!!!! i may have run down the new batteries I just put in yesterday. If this doesn't work, I GIVE UP!!!!!!!!

Regarding the ohms, i'm going to assume that a higher reading on the GP (seated in the manifold) is NOT a good thing. What would cause them the read higher?

I found the troubleshooting instructions in TM -20, as you said. It is found on Change 3, 2-13, Item #8 in Table 2-1. Unit Level Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services for CUCV. a. Disconnect each glow plug lead and check for resistance between glow plug terminal and ground. Resistance...

In fact, here is one of the threads that needs to be changed. Who can change that? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/content.php?2-CUCV-Wiki ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Troubleshooting Information Note: Do not...

Yep...I guess we should delete the threads where people say to use the light test method. All of the advice people give confuses us newbies. One thread says one thing and another says something completely different. Guess I'll stick to the manuals, even though I have a 12v. thanks.

Well, I've done the following to try and remedy this truck not starting: 1. two new batteries 2. did a continuity test on the each GP, using a light tester. I did NOT unplug each connect, but just touched the tester to the metal exposed portion of the GP on each one. (Will that give an...

I just performed a continuity test, with the light tester, and each of the glow plugs seem to check out fine.

I tried the starter that I already had on it, and it would not turn. I replaced the starter with one that I have borrowed from an Oklahoma member and it is finally turning. It started for about five seconds and then shutdown, again. I am wondering now if it could be the glow plugs are fried...

I am keeping that one in the memory bank, for sure. :)

so, I took the batteries over to my local auto battery store and they put a load test on them. The batteries failed, so I upgraded to two new ones. Uggg...more $$. Tried them out and nada, still no start. I'll try replace the starter with the one I have of yours and see if that works.

I bought them from the scratch and dent warehouse at a big battery mfg here in the north TX area. They like NASCAR. Batteries were $50 each, so I had to try them out. Group 31's. I have a battery charger that I hooked them up to, slow charge, until it read "fully charged." Tested the...

Load testing both batteries dropped them from approx 12.5 to 9.4.

Another great idea. I'll check that, as well Thanks!!

Great idea. Will do.

I do not believe it is a Chinese starter. I took the starter that was on it when I purchased it, which was a 12 V starter, and had it rebuilt locally. Believe it was a US made starter. I will check the connection tonight.

Good to know about the GP. I will check those.

So, if my batteries are fully charged and the starter is barely turning over, what else may be causing that issue? In the order of starting for an engine, the starter would need to be Functioning optimally before the glow plugs fire. Correct? Why would the starter be barely turning? Ideas?
