    Coolant Surge Tank - Reservoir - Overflow

    If a magnet stick to the brass looking parts... It's a knock off. If it doesn't have inspection stickers "AGM"... It's a knock off. If it doesn't hold pressure... It's a knock off. If it's white as in plastic milk carton... It's a knock off. I might be a red neck... But NO Red China parts for...

    Coolant Surge Tank - Reservoir - Overflow

    Take a look at his older thread. Surprised this is not more common. Knock-off or cheap butt part. Coolant Tank Keeps Cracking! Ok ...Back to tell the story. Ready? I too have had overflow tank issues. Being the guy that says "if it ain't broke don't fix it" or this time have some cash to...

    Is there a chart to match TSU to Control Box. Here is a picture of my C ontrol Box

    Those are showing up surplus. They and the SSI company are old OLD school, out of business. IMO... I would be careful in its use. It's a bit of an odd one. I was given one as an "engineering sample" Was hermetically sealed (soldered housing) and a pain to crack open. Curiosity killed this...

    What am I doing wrong? Why does my ignition start switch handle not line up?

    Now they all will have part numbers printed on them. Giving away military OEM parts secrets. See Alibaba for parts. Didn't someone just get busted for that...LOL. CAMO

    Hissing from the Cadillac valve

    Hmmwv no power to alternator

    Hello Mogman, The way I read it... Not so much the sense current requirement, but looping the alternator output / charge current back thru the box. Those # 8 ga pins are rated at 72 amps. Short run of number 8 ga wire could ?? handle it for a while. "RUN" contractor / relay rated at 125...

    Hmmwv no power to alternator

    2 1/2 years later and getting thrown under the bus. Then why post the same thing I was saying. Sorry couldn't answer all your questions. Mogman is likely correct your 100 amp unit was hacked in and control box is not going to be happy. And for a first post... sound like you have it all...

    Hard Start Only On Cold Start

    Well... it was a free guess. Time to dig a little deeper. Check voltages thru out the starting circuit under loading conditions. Electrical connection nice and tight? Mechanically, starter parts not playing nice, busted, rusted ? Time to get the creeper and volt meter out, CAMO

    Hard Start Only On Cold Start

    Well... here a free guess after seeing the 🔑 switch. Might be flaky voltage to the solenoid not pulling in hard. I here a chatter sound like it is banging on the ring gear struggling to spin up. This is my over the internet free guess and we all know how that works. Pat, I like to buy a...

    Securing a HMMWV

    I'am not here to "kick the dawg" nor is this a product review or endorsement. Just my experience after customer contact / consulting. YMMV In my business (name withheld, but those in the the know, know) two of my customers (customer installed) have been bitten by this bad puppy, key fob...
