    CDR for dummies

    The GM part numbers for the CUCV are: 12340256 / 25042443 / 25042462 / CV871 There are civilian model replacements that may or may not fit properly. I have not tried any of the civilian model replacements so cannot confirm or endorse their use. I've change many cdr valves and always use the...

    Charging system advice M1010

    The Sure Power 52210 produces a stable 12v from 24v. It monitors the 12v lead for draw and when detected, kicks on. It is not controlled by the ignition. It does a fantastic job of keeping the batteries evenly charged. "A" battery doesn't get charged from the equalizer, A and B get charged from...

    Looking for drivers side seat hinge cover for M1009...

    Just the cover right? I'll check through my stuff. LMC may have it cheap enough as well.

    Well, my analog meter confirms the output is 28.5v so my in dash gauge may be weak.

    Keith What voltage are you seeing across the 24v system when the truck is running? I don't recall where I left my regulators, but I am seeing about 28v across my 24v side with the truck running. My voltage gauge is in the green, but about 1/8" before the white hash mark. Also - one thing to...

    Another new deuce owner!

    Nice looking trucks! I see the M35A2 has spin on oil filters, I am presuming this wasn't a GL purchase? It is always nice to hear about safe and successful recoveries!

    So I cleaned the IP valve on the fuel return line...

    More than likely, deteriorating seals inside the injection pump. You'll probably need to replace your pump soon. Keep an eye out for fuel leaks in the valley under the pump.

    What are you asking for the M109A3? I know a guy looking.

    dash cluster HELP!!!

    There is a catch on the speedo cable. You have to press it in while pulling out the cable. Feel around, it is at the top of the assembly. On the dash cluster wiring harness there are two tabs, one at the top and bottom of the plastic plug. I usually pull this once the cluster is loose and work...

    10-12 MPG is about what I get on the highway with my M1010. I drive her around 60 MPH and try hard not to exceed 65. My truck really purrs though...for a while I thought the gear ratio was different, but it does have the stock 4.56 gearing. Edit: Come to think of it, my MPG calcs were done...

    A 12v gauge inside the truck might be useful to monitor the DUVAC. The normal GEN1 and GEN2 light wont indicate if there is a problem for this scenario. I've been thinking about adding one to monitor my battery equalizer.

    Just won a M1010

    My AC system was converted over to R134A. I was told by my AC tech that the compressor used on these trucks is bullet proof. I had some leaks in the hoses under my truck and replaced them. Once that was fixed, I found the evap fans were shot. They kept blowing the fuse. I fixed one by taking...

    You can test this yourself by adjusting the regulator on the LN to the low setting and by applying different voltages to the field circuit. The lowest I could get mine to output was 18v. That was with a regulated 5v input to the field. Prestolite confirmed my findings when I contacted them...

    Just won a M1010

    Keep in mind, the Leece Neville (LN from here on) alternator cannot output under 18v on it's own. The regulator is supposed to pulse the field circuit on the LN to achieve a lower voltage and not cook your battery. I could never get mine to work correctly so opted to replace the DUVAC completely...

    A replacement DUVAC, if you can find one, will most likely cost as much or more than a solid battery equalizer. Your assessment of how the DUVAC works is partially correct. The system (DUVAC) is compromised of a voltage regulator and a batter isolator. It is supposed to provide both 28v and 14v...

    I have M1009 seats ( driver, passenger, and rear bench ), antenna mounts 4x, antenna mount brush guards ( 2x I think ), m35 clean air kits ( new exhaust piping ) 3x, CUCV glove box 1x, M1009 tailgate 1x, M105A2 1x, M103A2 1x, m35A2 1x, and a bunch of other stuff lying around...pm me if interested.
