    MEP002a ASK

    To clarify, the muffler pictured in my post above does not put significant restriction on unit. It is designed for a much larger motor. In fact, I tested, and there is no RPM difference under load with or without auxiliary muffler at set frequency.. This muffler is from a 6.2 CUCV, so it runs...

    How to look up Lister Petter parts numbers

    Here is a civilian LP manual. It applies to other variants of engine also, so not as specific as TMs. Just to clarify, manual is not 802 specific, that is just the way it is labeled for my file.

    MEP002a ASK

    Dragging this picture up again, if you do it right, 002 with auxiliary muffler and ASK is about as quiet as an 802.

    Stuck Headlight Switch Operating Rod

    It seems to release better if you finesse it some, pressing the button when switch in normal open position, not yanking hard. If something is jammed, you can cut the knob off. It is the same for of years of chevy vehicles.

    Gen 2 light / Alternator trouble fixed the hard way

    There is also the gen 2 diode in dash harness, over the heater control, as per Warthog's CUCV diodes and relays sticky, picture #7. While I have never to replace, from the sound of the abuse, that could be bad also.

    Cracked Bolthole on Block for Starter

    On a side note, I would suggest you do not re use the bolts pictured in 3rd picture on original post. One is not even a starter bolt, no knurled shoulder. GM part or AC part number 15544950 is what you want. I usually use new bolts whenever I have to replace starter, as they can get bent, and...

    MEP-oo3a Glow Plug

    Here is a link Guy provided earlier this year. I bought a few used plugs from the OP in the Lister forum for low $. Maybe he still has some. http://listerengine.com/smf/index.php?topic=7776.0

    Shim the starter question - 12 V

    Nothing wrong with electrical, all original, no grinding. Starter drive runs out and clicks. The couple of times it did not engage, even a slave jump off another 24V CUCV with Hawkers did not help. There may be a slight worn spot on flex plate, but I doubt it, knowing the history of truck...

    Shim the starter question - 12 V

    I recently replaced a starter with one of the cheap import gear drives, and it occasionally clicks, sometimes many times before engauging. I think it is a weak solenoid and or poorly formed starter teeth. Twice this season, it would not engage at all, so there is now a breaker bar in truck...

    CUCV 1986 M1008 - In a Real Pickle - Bad Heads - Need Advice

    Or buy some NOS heads off ebay. Really depends on how you are going to use the truck, and if it is going to pay for itself. And how much funds and time you have for that one vehicle.

    Why does log in time out?

    I'm just about done posting any thing more than quick replies. Why does log in time out? yes I know I could check the 'remember me' box, but this is not a secure site, according to firefox, so why would I do that? Did not even find restore content function this time... We are supposed to...

    Tighten power steering pump and alternator belts- no helper.

    They are inexpensive and they do help. Thexton tools has a lot of useful inventions like these they have bothered to produce and market.

    cucv fuel filter housing

    The pressure switch is what causes the air leak failure in the original filter base. It is only used in conjunction with the STE-ICE, an obsolete diagnostic kit. The type without pressure switch, but with military compatible wire connectors is a later part upgrade. $325 eh? I think I have...

    H1's are back, kinda sorta

    That's a colorful turn of phrase, as Gomez Adams would say. Hadn't heard that one before.

    Best way to tell when power is restored?

    I installed one of those Powerback alarms a while ago. Works fine, use zip ties to secure sensor wire, I did it with tape the first time and it came loose enough not to work.

    Wiper motor overheating?

    See if they work with soapy water on the windshield as lubricant. If they do, the wiper blades might be part of the problem. I had a set of new blades that made too much drag recently. I put some electrician's pull tape lube on windshield and that helped break them in.
