Warthog, Thanks for the Wilson part number I picked one up this morning.

Anyone know if the top cover for the air cleaner is the same as the civvy units- 2 holes? Anyone have a spare?

Rebuid an alt with isolated ground My #2 alt lamp is on steady as of this morning. I can't seem to find one on the shelf. Am I looking too hard? I am sort of in a hurry cause the hunting season opener is here. Where can I find one on the shelf- I'd take it to a rebuilder; but the one I normally...

Firefox: Good catch. In an earlier thread of mine (much earlier) I had a similar problem. I Removed my Delco DD starter (turned out to be a 12volt model). I put a chinese junk model in at that time (gear reduc), also bought the correct bracket from the dealer at that time- so it was already in...

Resolved: I ordered a Wilson Gear Reduction MT28 to replace the Chinese one from ebay. I remember ordering the one off the bay and thinking I'd probably be better off replacing it with an American new OR quality American rebuilt; but the auction looked good and my thrify side said: "how bad can...

I have been thinking of a way to cut down my Cargo Cover for my M1008 to fit my blazer. I would have to add a clear window, I suppose to maintain a rearview; but It does look cool IMHO. Cut the poles down, then girdle cut the top and drop it down over the bottom portion of the cover about six...

thanks for the replies so far; but I am still after the answer to my question: what part goes out on the starter?

David, I read and reread this OP of yours and I don't understand if the problem was fixed in this thread so far. I know it has been a long while since you posted this; but I just bought a new ignition switch because I was not getting a crank when turning the key. What was the fix?

acesneights1, you are so right. Even NAPA, the last of the holdouts, is embarrased to tell me that a part is now made in china- no CAPS for those guys. **** I opened a new Blu-Ray player a few weeks ago and on the remote control I see "Made in china"... the Koreans are even getting their stuff...

I am in the process of pulling my starter for replacement. I bought it in February this year and it is still under warranty. It is a Caltric from daBay. (1 year warranty... we'll see) Anyway. I tested it per the TM and found that there is indeed power to the purple wire at the starter solenoid...

ralbelt, I read that already. In my OP I state that the batteries were checked- I didn't mean I checked them and they were dead. They each showed 12.55 volts. That seems like enough to crank the engine over, yet I am only getting 19.5 volts at the purple wire at the starter solenoid. I am...

wired1000, I gonna call this fellow Tom up and get a starter sent out. Is yours the DD or gear reduction type. Do you have a part number and price? I am in Oregon, so I'll have to call tomorrow, as he is probably gone for the day.

I am not sure how to test amps... Is this what a "Load Test" does? I checked voltage at the purple wire at the starter solenoid per TM -20's Malfunction test #42. I got a reading of 19.5Volts. Is this too low to crank the engine?... even a little?

Read applicable threads already; but no help so far. I have been chasing a "No Crank" problem for the past 48 hours. Ran wiring down as per TM. The situation is: Turn the key. All the requisite dash lights come on and cycle. All I hear is a click. Batteries checked, starter checked. Reminds me...

I am checking all the wiring back from the starter relay. Has anyone found any of these wires to be problematic. I ask because they seem strong at the connectors; but some of them disappear into the harness and I am having a helluva time finding where they come out. Without pulling the starter...

antennaclimber, which harness connector? Is it the one behind the fuse panel or the one by the Transmission tube... or some other one?

under the dash. I have replaced my batteries with two new ones. The GP card is new from Antenna Climber. I have been driving it for months since I cleaned the GP card contacts with sandpaper and inserted the new GP card. But today, out-of-the-blue, I turned the key, the WAIT light came on for...

I have read all, I think, threads regarding fuel injectors on this forum. It is my feeling that the injectors in my Blazer could use a rebuil. I understand that they are not too difficult to R&R; but I also have read that they can be easily rebuilt- though not easily tested by a DIY'er. Is...

K9Vic, yep, I seemed to have screwed up- don't ask me how; but I ended up ordering from the truck catalog. I have a 73 3/4 T pick up and must have not checked that it was the blazer catalog I wanted when I wrote down the Mat number. skysix, the dashmat was bought from a gal on ebay: Seller's...

Thanks for all the great ideas guys. I like the idea of coming off the rear seat buss. I'll take a look today. K9Vic good call on the mat difference. I am going to check the order and invoice now. From the pics, I definitely got the wrong one. Now the question is, am I that lame that I screwed...
