    30 inches of snow no match for a CUCV

    Hey Guys, Been awhile. Lot going on but thought I would post some pics. Before anyone calls BS on the 30" Look at all the pics. Some were taken in the morning while it was still snowing.

    IP Pump replacement

    x2. That is exactly what I use and Dstang is right.. Be careful with the bolts for the IP to camgear. I don't "think" they can fall in but have never tested that theory....:D. i have actually done 2 of these in the last 3 months. Real simple job IMHO. When you get 'er all back together leave all...

    Gen 1 driver side not charging right

    Alternator was bench tested at a local auot elect shop. It's good. Yes more than 1100. I would say atleast 2000 maybe more. It's not getting keyed power to excite it. There is a two wire plug that snaps into it and the Alt shop told me one side should have constant power and the other should be...

    Gen 1 driver side not charging right

    Block heaters

    I just did a block heater install on mione last weekend. Not for the faint of heart. It's messy and a royal PIA getting the old freeze plug out. That said it can be done but be warned it's not that easy as just replacing and existing one. You will need drain coolant, carefully remove the freeze...

    Leaking like a sieve!

    All diesels have hydroboost in this vintage. No avaible suffiecient supply of vacuum(the VP on these are a joke). If you are referring to the oil cooler lines that run across the rad they are to my knowledge a dealer only item and very expensive. They always leak at the crimps. I careful person...
