    starter?

    After reading this I am so glad that I did the" DH starter relay modification" before I had a problem. I really think that anyone with a CUCV that does not do this 1/2 hour upgrade is waiting for a major failure.

    cucv key

    I would send you one for free but I'm leaving for FL in the AM and have turned in all my vehicle keys, be patient and I'm sure another cucv owner will chime in soon. I usually ask that you donate an extra 1$ next time you donate.
