    How long the starter will hold?

    Yeah no. There's a fair amount of cheech already hazing the ground when the video started. I am willing to bet he was cranking that sob for at least a minute, if not two. IF the glow plugs were that shot. "they probably are". Should have just gave it a snort of either, and gone on the marry...

    Parking Brake Lockout

    Is your parking brake adjusted properly? i.e. it would take a lot to accidentally release the parking break on a hmmwv. You're on the right path on chocking the tires. It's SOP in the TM, that and a catch pan. I wouldn't personally drill the hole in the lever. But it aint my truck. Go with...

    1st time owner joy to sadness. Coolant in oil

    my guess is hot overfilled coolant venting from the overflow. .... might want to considering selling your truck, and getting something more... should I say; user friendly? As for the residual water. Get as much of it out of the pan as you can and drive the truck. You can use a hydrophilic...

    HUB rebuild hours

    Of course not. I'm talking about the big mitchell books (1-1.5ft thick) that has R&R rates for every vehicle / component system. Actually thinking about it.. it's probably all online now... Either way any shop to should have access to R&R rates if they are worth anything.

    M998 operating temperature

    yepp yeppp. or the fan system is not working at all "freewheeling"... More likely frozen fan clutch from sitting. You can introduce compressed air into the rubber hose to the fan clutch (not while running) and see the clutch engage/disengage. Willing to bet you have a good t stat. It's just...

    Titling was too easy.

    Some can't read rules/regs. That's on them. As stated above. You may have gotten one over on them now, but when they come... They come down hard. Personally I don't have any ****s to give about some civvie buying a hmmwv, then posting here against the rules how he got a title, and feeling...

    Registering a Hmmwv in California

    Only thing to add.... Yes. Yes they cannot fill out their own forms correctly. Know how many times I have had a sale price written in as the odometer mileage? Know how many times I have pulled up statute to get the correct weight charge. Bunch Government job man.

    700R4 Conversion

    I have paid that much for a zf6 that I've swapped in to my 7.3 psd. If you can justify the price for a toy. I can't. I don't drive mine fast, or on roads.

    Can I drive a HMMWV in the AZ desert legally?

    It's too big for orv decal. Have to get regular reg. Then not drive it on the road. Or not even go that route and just drive it off road. Will be wise to get liability. Don't forgot to run red diesel
