    1986 M923 intermittent no-start condition

    Also, here is a better view of the circuit board inside the PCB.

    1986 M923 intermittent no-start condition

    First off, thank you simp5782 for responding. I'm glad to have the knowledge of someone who knows far more than I do, to look at this thing. As I am sure you have already figured out, I have no idea what I'm doing with this PCB. I am being as forthcoming as I can with whatever information I have...

    1986 M923 intermittent no-start condition

    Update: The situation has been temporarily resolved to at least keep the truck operational. It's not ideal, but at least it works. The solenoids in the PCB are not at fault. I have no idea if the components on the circuit board are faulty, I don't have enough information on how they work or...

    1986 M923 intermittent no-start condition

    Looking for troubleshooting guidance and suggestions on resolving this intermittent no-start condition. The issue only started on July 3rd, when we were prepping the truck to participate in some Independence Day operations. The truck is a 1986 AM General M923 with the ABS system. It has the...

    Summerfest Centralia WA July 4, 2018

    I got the missus making up a big bowl of her awesome pasta salad for lunch. We'll be on hand with a few people to man the troop seats, too. Didn't get time to wash the truck, so it's a little mossy. Runs good though, and we'll dress it up a bit anyway.

    We'll be there again this year. Truck is a little rough from the winter, but it'll be there. What can we bring to help out?

    We'll bring Elizabeth's famous pasta salad. That seems to be a hit with most crowds.

    Scale Model FEMTT

    I'm not sure anyone has posted about this already or not, but somebody (looks like in Germany) made a scale model of Soni's FEMTT. It's not 100% accurate, but it's pretty good. You can see some pictures of it here:http://www.hansebubeforum.de/showtopic.php?threadid=25114&pagenum=4#562174

    4 July 2016 Centralia, WA Summerfest MV display

    Myself and the missus for sure, not sure on the rest. Last year it was just one extra, we were hoping for a full truck this year, five or six, but probably only three or four. As soon as I have a firm number, I'll let you know for sure. Also, let us know what we can bring to contribute to the...

    M1010 somebody talk me down

    Is that a full floater rear axle under there? It's hard to tell for sure in those pictures, but I don't see the bearing housing and axle caps sticking out from the rear axle. I've never seen a semi-float 8-lug axle before, so maybe the pictures are misleading. Did you look at both axles and...

    Lincoln Welders

    I'm not sure this counts as more than anecdotal evidence, but my high school metalworking and ag science department exclusively used US Army surplus Lincoln arc welders from the World War II era. They were obtained by the then-incumbent metalshop teacher (who was in his '60s at that time), and...

    Adding hydroboost brakes??

    I'm going to chime in here a bit and point out that air disc brakes have been the dominant standard in most of Western Europe since the early 1990s, and there is a vast body of supporting evidence to support their superiority in every possible aspect. I remember wishing I had them on my truck...

    M939 Air tank help

    For any vehicle driven daily, sure. For any vehicle driven regularly but not daily, then before every use. Or, for vehicles driven sparsely, performed at regularly scheduled maintenance and upkeep intervals, as well as before every use. However, I think I see where Artisan was going with this...

    Centralia WA 4 July 2015 - Display and Parade

    Sorry for the late reply. We had to make a last minute trip down to Portland this afternoon, didn't get back till just now. So no detailing or working on the truck for us. It'll have to make its appearance as-is. Thanks for the offer though. Looks like the Captain doesn't want to turn out for...

    Centralia WA 4 July 2015 - Display and Parade

    Pete, there will be three of us for sure in our M923, possibly four if we can get the Captain to come out in the heat. She's being somewhat recalcitrant about the whole thing, sadly. I need to rig up some kind of sunshade for the bed one of these days. But three of us are coming for sure. We're...
