Happens every winter to a Humv, or anytime. I have written many post to this. One can go QEM with the latest S3 smart box. Bring your wallet.
Glow plugs most likey toast. 24 Volt for more than a minute and POOF ! Another 90 bucks and that may not be the final fix. Cold weather, white smoke...
Crazy WOW... I try to help. BUT come on guy's. Spending 20 plus thousand on a rig and no after the sale / dealer support? Don't mind sharing knowldge...But not going to take the test for you. And if I did good chance the answers would be wrong. LOL.
PARTS and numbers already covered.
You...
Can't say for sure. May have to start one. MVPA Military Vehicles Collectors Association might be a a start. Car clubs for shows were real good years ago when I had the M37. Seem to get snubbed with the HumV. Arizona used to have a couple of good one's. I thought I saw a listing of get...
On the HumV not so sure about that IMO. Fuel pressure, RPM, voltage and current. All important yes. GI ICE with little experience could note the conditions and maybe maybe get to it ??? So I guess it is useful.
IMO, by the time one with a little experience / training / and tricks of the...
As suggested you might look for one of these on the filter housing. A check valve. See picture.
I am not a fan of them as they are another moving part that can quit or clog up. They do stabilize the pulsing of weak or some fuel pumps, with the filter canister acting like an accumulator...
Been over this a tons of times... so here's my solution. This is a simple back-up to the sometimes questionable dash gauges OIL pressure and add a FUEL pressure gauge. (important IMO when trouble shows up on the road) Dash voltage is relative and more or less go-no go. Temperature more...
I' am not sure what I am seeing. I see a timing mark on cover just under return line, and no line on the pump of the left photo. Then a dirty line to the right on cover aligned to the pump right photo. This is a mess. Lines should be clear and pump centered more or less. The second picture...
YEA...ME TOO.

PM me direct for serious inquiries. Exchange of phone numbers to build rapport and support this build. Simple DIY skills are required to assemble. It is...
The mechanical threads of the flare type coupling will not benefit from the use of tapes or sealants. The compression of the mating surfaces is the seal. Like I said ... Jacked up, dinged, busted, scratched flares under pressure can leak with the most minuet microscopic flaw. A proper...
Worry Wart here... I am a little concerned about the use of this "Tephion" or is it Teflon as it is not recommended on flare fittings. While one might think 'hell, can't be that thick" the seal is made at the flare and is a dry, clean, no nicks, burrs, or buggers and flare to flare square fit...
Probably shouldn't have mess with it till one know what you got. It's not that hard to adjust in truck. What engine / set-up do you have. (note 5149 is 6.5 NA) Wonder if it was set-up correctly at Melon ?
What is and where did you smear this "tephlon" sealant?
If only a 1/16 turn... I...
Yes, picture would help. If I was to guess, it is a free guess, you have some alloy wheels with deep dish hub thickness?
For me, I would want to see some threads or two or three or four or more.
That's might be more that one, CAMO
