Everything you have pictured is scrap. It is NOT savable. The fuel tank would make a great drip pan at best if you cut the top off. All the parts you have pictured are available. The little hose with the plug off is useless. Just plug that line. Get a new 25 gallon tank and sending unit. Replace...

I would say they are not worth the effort. Poor fit and a rust haven on these vehicles that are looking to rust anytime. Be Safe.

Been a long day. After a week of rain and working solo I did manage to get a big task completed on my project. I have had several times where no wait light would light . Well I phoned a friend this AM and ask a few questions. Being that the glow plug card was never changed ever in the 25 years I...

30 amp.

Have you looked at the right side where the fuel pump hose connects to the fuel pump. Are the motor mounts bad and have a small hole or cut worn in the feed line. I seen that on my own vehicle already. No fuel leak just allowing no suction.

Did you ever replace the injection pump. Ever?

I have had great luck using hydraulic lines custom made and run and secured on top of the transmission and over to the cooler. I used these on snow plow trucks and have had great success. What other parts do you need? A word of advice. If you have the heads off get them checked and machined at a...

Just a quick observation and a bit of advise. PB Blaster/WD40/CRC is not the best lube for a permanent lube. Use a squirt can with good old motor oil and use grease on items that need lubed. A little grease and motor oil go a long way. Disconnect that hood cable and hoist it up over night and...

Oh I missed that one item you have shown at top. That is the common nail clipper with pivoting nail file. I would toss that one for recycling. A nail clipper is a hand tool used to trim fingernails, toenails and hangnails. Wanted to get an A+ on the identification of all items. I hope that is...

Actually they are the hold downs for the folding jack handle that attach to the inside fuel fill cover on an M1009. The jack itself get mounted under the passengers seat on the M1009. Rattles and bangs when not secured correctly and keeps the driver alert. Also all other models. I think this is...

Both must light for the charging system to operate as designed. If you are only charging the front battery that would explain the slow / long glow plug cycle and the slow cranking. You are basically starting and operating on a low rear battery and Gen 2 is not charging as designed. Does it seem...

Today was a cold, dreary, and very rainy day. I waited to noon and went down to work on my project. I went for a 10 m/m socket and could not find it. I have several 10 m/m sockets but lost tools are a bad thing. I stopped everything and started looking for 2 missing sockets. An 8 m/m and a 10...

I am curious to see if it is charging correctly. Do both Gen 1 and Gen 2 light come on when you turn the key on?

The voltmeter is could be as easy as a blown 10 amp fuse at the bottom of the fuse box. Replace that and look at how the charging system is working. Have the batteries load tested. They may be weak. And is this still 24 volt? Report back your findings and Good Luck.

Today was not a leaps and bounds progress day on my CUCV M1009 project. I was being tormented by an M1028 that the owner decided to sand blast the interior floor. I am sorry I got involved. I advised against it and wham here it is in my driveway. You do know what the outcome was and still is. I...

Real hard to help from afar. I spent the day fixing a CUCV owner thought it would be a good idea to sand blast the inside floor of the cab. Guess what happened. Had to say I told him so. But from your description it is hard to just say yes its the injection pump. To many variables. The nozzles...

Shame shame shame. Pulling a Chevy with a Dodge. I used to get all my CUCV with a CUCV then I had a Ford diesel and did I'd get the thumbs down and the thumbs up on the road during them trips. Used the roll back towards the end to haul 3 at a time. That was the way to do it. Looks good. Worst...

That looks like a brand new crate axle in that truck. Where the U joints just bad from setting in the crate? Be Safe.

Check where your seal is riding on the axle. That dirt imbedded grease and oil grease may have worn a groove. You will need a seal saver sleeve to go over that axle stub. These trucks have out lived the expected life time of most vehicles and require special attention and parts. Nothing any TM...

To me the sound you hear and the lights dimming coincide with the glow plugs cycling. This happens after start up or when you have a faulty temperature sensor in the glow plug system. That is what my thoughts are on the issue you are describing. Good Luck. Be Safe.
