I'm glad a happy medium was reached. I think 6 months is plenty of time to calm the concerns of any user. Maybe it should be a "perk" of paid membership....with non paying users getting 1 day, a week, whatever....just a thought. When I broached the subject of content ownership, I did so...

What this new policy tells me is that our posts once posted after 24hrs no longer belong to us. Our intellectual property becomes the property of the website. You might want to update the "forum rules" and terms of service. Unless I missed it, ownership of content is not addressed in either...

Why would deleting one's own thread be a problem?

Resurrecting this old thread for clarification...I see members suggest turning down main fuel adjustment when bypassing the fdc and leaving the droop screw alone. The document posted above suggests turning UP the main fuel and decreasing the fuel via the droop. So which is it? I have a truck...

That is one sweet ride, awesome acquisition!

Yikes! I can see why Vinny put a snorkel on his M1009. I wont be able to make the event, hope you all have a good time. The weather should be great all weekend.

What else can be said?? Kenny is one of the good ones.. I'm sure glad I know him (and have him on speed dial)!

You only need to keep the master switch (right one) off when the truck is not in use. There is a relay next to the starter relay for the BO lights in the ambulance body. When the light switch is in the ON position this relay stays energized and will drain your batteries. Leave the switch off...

Really? It has the info you seek. Though I prefer the copy I am uploading now. The CAD drawing incorrectly lists wire 38 as part of the temp circuit. The wire is actually 33 per the pic I attached and experience in just doing this job myself. Wire 27 goes to the spider harness. Gauges and...

Kipman - I see the OPs fix was the fuel filter, did you ever fix yours?

I just installed a Proliance 432098 in one of my M1008s this past week. I had the same issue with the oil cooler lines. After pushing them in as far as I could and then removing them, I noticed the metal shearing slightly at the tips. Just the outer most layer was affected. Clearly the line...

Try what I recommended, ideally you want to manually disassemble the parts and clean them but there are bits you cant reach and risks associated. Even after I cleaned mine I still had some issues until running a highly solvent fuel mixture for a short period of time until the problem went away...

I use a 24v battery charger all the time, no issues here. BatteryMINDer 24 Volt 1/2/4 Amp Wet/Gel/AGM Battery Charger: BatteryMart.com There is a link to the one I use. I bought mine at Northern Tool.

Sounds like gummy varnish on the fuel rod/shutoff/gov assembly in the side of the pump. I had a similar problem and cleaned it up by running some 50/50 unleaded and diesel.

What pattern do you see?

My previous late model 1987 stats: wo/w 87K2201 1040-10858 My latest truck's stats: wo/w 04/88...

Found it, thanks to emmado22 and wsucougarx It was a little higher than where I had sanded previously. Pic attached.

Will do, thanks.

The flight line signal sticker taped to the dash makes me think it had something to do with an air strip at one point. Other than that, I don't know any history, It came from Ft Jackson. They have had several late model trucks recently and the bulk had no data plates. If you find anything on...
