    Alternator autozone DL7157 driver side

    I would suggest taking it back and getting the correct alternator. Autozone doesnt carry a proper replacement as far as I know.

    There is much more than just the starter running 24v on these. I would just buy the 2 batteries. You can get civvy batteries that fit the tray... I believe I looked up the # and posted it earlier in this thread.

    My M35A2 Cargo Dump Truck

    m16ty... it depends on how close to the PTO you mount the pump. My setup has the pump back on the hoist itself, and the PTO shaft interferes with the spare... I hope to some day move the pump up closer.... John... do you have a spare linkage for one of those rear mount PTO's? I really want...

    1952 Fermont 30KW Recovery!! PICS!!

    The clicking noise you were hearing is probably the mag spring snapping, creating the impulse for spark.

    at the end of my rope!!!

    If your bleeder screw appears to have ANY air in it, thats why it wont run. Silly question.... but are you SURE you have enough in the tank?

    M1009 Startup Issues

    You really should locate a fan shroud for it too. I have heard of people using just electric fans.... but most of the ones I hear about end in failure.

    I towed a big boat with my m1009, that's the most you've towed?

    That has nothing to do with the rating on the 1009. Its the 3.08 gearing that keeps the towing capacity so low. As evident by his Temp light coming on at 70 mph... he was working the crap out of that engine/tranny towing that kind of load with the crappy gears. As to pulling it out of the...

    M1009 Startup Issues

    Dont switch to electric fans. You will have a hard time keeping the 6.2 cool with them.

    Yet another M1009 w/ Elec. Problems

    I would download the TM manuals for your truck... and print out the proper schematics on teh starting system. Give them to your mechanic... they will be of great help. It sounds to me like your starter relay is stuck..... search the forums, you will find a ton of information on it.

    Newb in Western NY Looking for help

    x-ray... I am about an hour east of you in Williamson. C'mon out if ya want, check out my trucks. I could probably be convinced to towbar a deuce home for you if you win one. I know Doghead would most likely help you at least get it back to his place (about 30 min or so from Ft Drum)

    Help us get him in the truck!!!

    We have had a similar conversation to this in chat one night.... My suggestion. Was to get a canvas sling used for lifting people in/out of bed and such. use that, in combination with one of these cranes mounted in the front corner of the bed... Hydraulic Hoist Fold the soft top of the...

    M1009 Startup Issues

    The first green wire you show up by the injection pump is for the high idle solenoid on the right side of the IP. The second one, is for your temperature light. There should be a probe on the very front of the head that it will plug onto.

    Hd np208?

    That is just because of the TH400 tranny vs the 700R4 in civvy versions.

    Hd np208?

    Maybe the skid plate!

    What are your coolant temps?

    Yes, look at the drivers side head near the front, you will see a green wire connected to a probe thats not a glow plug. That is the probe for the temp light. There should be a matching plug in the head on the pass side that you can use (or take the probe for the light out) You can also make...

    What are your coolant temps?

    I suppose its possible, usually they are put in a port on the head.
