    2013 SoCal Fall Rally

    I'll for sure be there if I'm off or can get the time off. I'm just not sure what the sleeping arrangement will be this time. I'd like to bring the M109 out but it won't run right. Worse case scenerio I'll set up a smaller user friendly tent.

    SOCAL IRWINDALE SPEEDWAY "Salute to the Armed Forces Night" May 25th

    Sounds like a lot of fun. I'll need to get spousal approval before I can go. How many vehicles are already going to be there?

    FIFI WAS IN BURBANK AND I MISSED IT!?!?!?! I hope I don't have to wait too long for it to return. How does Monday or Tuesday sound?

    2013 SoCal Spring Rally

    I'm not saying no but I can't say yes to this flaming doughnut/clean up event. I'm presently scheduled to work night shift Friday and Saturday. Not sure I can get the time off. The other problem is I still have no place to sleep. The sleeping bag on a cot under an easy-up just plain sucked...

    CUCV emissions restrictions in California

    Had to take my M1009 to the DMV for an inspection. It had never been registered anywhere before. The inspector gave it a once over, initialed some paperwork and I was done. No smog test......yet. I've seen some folks swap out the diesel engine for a big block gas motor and not report it. I'm...

    Duramax and M1009

    Has anyone come up with a "4BT Swap for Dummies" book yet? I'm not sure I could live with the bread truck sound.

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    Subscribed. I've got some testing to do ASAP! My problem is the reverse of most of the posts here. Both gen lights come on with the key and go out when running. But my gen lights flicker very dimly at higher RPM levels with no real pattern and when I hit a bump in the road the GEN 2 light...

    SoCal New Years Day Trail Run in the San Bernardino mountains

    Looks and sounds like a good time was had, bummed that I missed it. My CUCV will be done soon. Hopefully I'll have the M109 ready for the next trip as well.

    Oops, water down intake?

    Could he pull the glowplugs out and crank the engine over and see if it becomes a squirt gun? With luck it ran down into the pan and only an oil change is needed.

    The Umptilionth "First CUCV Thread"

    The M1009s give you plenty of choices of how to run it. Won't have passengers? Remove the back seat. Without the back seat you can sleep in it. Need a pick-up? I'm told it's a pain but you can take the top off. It will tow your boat. It's marginally faster and gets better milage. The short wheel...
