On the dash lights - you probably have some burned out bulbs or poor contacts so follow the threads noted above, also there covered in dust and the cluster housing has lost its luster to reflect the light...to really brighten it up, I would pull cluster and disassemble it. either paint the...

I edited and posted a pic in the previous post but if I'm going to pull the battery cables to play with the bendix I will go a step further and completely unbolt it and get a couple pics and look for a label too. He purchased it from a local ALT and Starter Rebuild shop which might be worth...

Any known fit problems with the aftermarket starters...this is not a Delco and it had cad plated square socket hole hardware where the normal recessed Phillips screws go? Similar to this thing: He did stop by last night and I have him convinced on the Fuel Filter and 60G upgrades.

Teeth are definetley chipped and has been rubbing on the flywheel cover. I pulled a shim out of the starter mounting becasue it looked like the bendix what not moving far enough in. Still need to have some one bump it for more inspection but it is turning over again. Pictures are after shim...

exactly!

After I get the cover off, I'll mark the flywheel and inspect it thouroughly for cracks and all teeth. Just so I know he has the right starter too, should it have a particular number of teeth on the bendix?

Thanks, Its really giving me some great troubleshooting lessons and skills that I can use in the future as I work on my own 9, I just wish I would have gotten it a month sooner as we are beginning to get weather here and it won't be long before the snow is flying. What sucks is he was going to...

Drove it to work today...noise in the flywheel area trying to start and prgressively getting worse. Stopped after work to get a quick hair cut (Drill this weekend) and it would not start. Turned over a little then a spinning bendix sound so either the starter is not shimmed right or not...

Got the dash back together and did another little custom touch... While I had the cluster out and was testing the different bulb circuits, I took the Seat Belt/Brake Warning window out and lightly scaped the seat belt lettering off the plastic lense. I then printed a new label on clear tape on...

Could not have done it without your patience and consistance with coming back to the thread each day, as well as the others too who helped. I will say I learned a lot during the troubleshooting on this CUCV that I did not know or have problems with on my own when I swapped a Civy 6.2 in from a...

HOUSTON WE HAVE IGNITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I put the pink and green wires back on the IP and did a half dozon cycles of cranking and finally began to get a little fuel out the #1 and #2 injector lines so I put them back on. Another half dozen cycles and the batteries were slowing down so put it...

Well the fuel heater is leaking for sure, as was the pressure switch, and the lower bleed screw was missing so fuel filter as it hangs is toast as is. I don't have a spare, so filter swap is needed for sure whether stock (which is notorious for leaking) after market spin on, or inline it came to...

Ended up taking the filter assembly off and and putting 10 psi of pressure between the the supply and return ports. Leaking at the heater at the top for sure. Put the cheap inline filter from the repair shop back on and applied 10 psi to the return line to pressurize the system but getting...

Yes still using the original base, I pulled the filter off to check the pressure switch area and it did look pretty wet so I removed it, tapped and inserted a stainless screw with Teflon tape in the hole. I need a second hand to prime now and that is what brought me to the whole priming ideas...

I was reading over on Diesel Place and a guy suggests appying a 4 psi pressure on the return line hose to pressurize the entire fuel system and then you can also search for leaks of air or fuel. My problem is getting my compressor regulated that low. Checking HF for cheap regulators in the...

I reconnected the battery terminals and I moved the disconnect from the front battery negative to the center battery negative. I no longer have the 12v on the orange GP terminals of the GP Relay with the disconnect in the open position. I tested the Push Button GP Relay Button and get the 12v...

Weve tied many a M35 and M900 Series 5 tons in the C5s with those. Here is what the chain looks like with the bent hooks: http://www.armysurpluswarehouse.com/aircraft-tie-down-chain-assemblies.html

Post #25 - They were all 2.8ohms during the #19 troubleshooting steps. Post #45 - Glow Plugs all test nice and bright with the test light ground on the the GP terminal and the touching battery + with the probe. Is there any other tests to confirm good or fried?

Note the nice tight fit in the heater box and pay close attention to your replacement. Many of the aftermarket replacement cores are known to not fit snug like this. The cooler air will leak past the them and highly degrade the heating output. You may need to add extra foam sealing material or...

Still pretty cold today, so only got the GP push button wires ran and terminated on the GP Solenoid. Dropped the starter relay bracket, mounted the new Doghead Relay and put it back together. I'm hoping to bleed the fuel again early this week as its suppose to warm up to the mid 40s and...
