    Fuel delivery issue M1123 ,Crank no start .....help?!

    IMO... the IP is not that big of a deal. The magic trick is revealed by studying up, manuals, TM's, exploded views, UTubes, understand all the bits. Couple of special tools ? a clean and organized bench. Not much more than the old days of a carburetor rebuilds. Remember those? Check balls...

    Fuel delivery issue M1123 ,Crank no start .....help?!

    This is a different rig, PUMP and Solider.............. What a F ing MESS. That sucks. It could be salvage BUT best to bite the bullet on a new / rebuild IP. That part is the insulation plastic off the solenoid. Question ??? Can you see the flywheel vanes spin when cranking? Not a fun day...

    Something to watch out for with "NON RUNNERS" Could be this could be that...Could be anything. I know good deals can be had on nice non runners... BUT it's a crap shoot... SO plan on getting wrenches and wallet out with finger crossed. The gang here working hard to get another HumV back on...

    Fuel delivery issue M1123 ,Crank no start .....help?!

    The governor linkage looks a bit bent and metering valve in a hard clockwise position ?? Likely gummed up metering valve and more. Are those parts free to move wiggle and giggle. Terms for proper movement. Stuck and this IP sucks, CAMO

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    YOU are absolutely RIGHT for all the reasons stated & 14ga wire too. The HMMWV "RUN" position is typically about 2 Amps. The "START" position about 6.5 Amps to pull in the solenoid, then the holding winding / contacts do the rest. The switch I posted and it's rating of 70 inductive Amp is...

    Fuel delivery issue M1123 ,Crank no start .....help?!

    Another frustrated Father fussing with a HumV from a remote location. From the fumbling and my attention span... Got lift pump flow and pressure. Asked for flow and numbers. Got a big squirt ? OK better that a dribble? Crack a few more injector lines. Turning engine over (170 RPMS min)...

    Maybe time to back up and verify fuel flow and pressure feeding the pump. Real numbers / data. I got lost in the poking around, this and that, CAMO Happy Fathers and HumV day,

    Fuel delivery issue M1123 ,Crank no start .....help?!

    Lately pumps fails seem to be on the rise. The injector pump on the outside looks simple. Fuel in... fuel out at the right amount, right place and time. Yep, you know that. Most operators remove and replace. First timers not a lot of fun. Old timers...here we go again. Trucks having been...

    Ambulance rear doors

    My free guess.... Might be part of some "demil" process. Yet it a few years, another auction and there will be piles of them at BIG BUCKS. Just a guess, as in X doors or other parts. CAMO

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That free print is incomplete missing the last page. Neutral safety switch is in series with the "START" position. Stock military switch at "RUN" is rated at 20 Amp, 30 volts. Start position the same with 70 Amps inductive load. IMO... and it's free, I would be VERY concern as to the...

    GP Inspection Reports, Buy with confidence or Buyer Beware? What is your experience?
