    Insurance ???????

    Lot of misinformation in this thread. I'm not going to bother with my "qualifications", you'll just have to trust me. If the AGENT misrepresents the vehicle to the company, the company CANNOT deny the claim. It must be paid as if it were insured correctly. However, after they pay you, the...

    cold/fast idle sensor...

    I certainly hope that works... The cheapest I can find it is ~$110. Thats some coin for a little solenoid. Part # is AC DELCO 14066255. rr

    cold/fast idle sensor...

    Checked it out.. When cold, it is "clicking", also clicks when I put power to it from the +post of the front battery per the TM. Looks like its bad though. Even though it clicks and the shaft moves, it has no "holding power". It hits the little plate on the throttle but can't move it. Looks...

    m1009 highways speeds

    I cruise mine at an indicated 65mph very comfortably. I'm guessing that that indicated 65 probably translates to between 55-60. rr

    Glow Plugs

    Got my new plugs today.. Luckily, my trip up north got rescheduled for next week! Otherwise I would have been gone when they arrived, and I wouldn't have been able to take the '09 :cry:. I just finished putting them in. Very easy! I broke my shoplight, so I did the whole thing in the dark...

    cold/fast idle sensor...

    Well, it looks like the solenoid or whatever you call it isn't working. Didn't change my cold start idle at all. Is there an easy way to test it? tt

    1985 6.2 injection pump

    The guy asked you where you were finding them for ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS NEW. Why did he ask you this? BECAUSE the diesel shops near him charge nearly 5 times that just to rebuild one. So, where the heck are you finding them EVERY DAY for ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS? rr PS: Im fracking sick of the...

    could a bent drive shaft crack a th400

    I would think a slight vibration wouldn't be enough to crack it. In combination with the forklift dents, I suspect that GL cracked it lifting it, and that combined with the vibration caused the crack to propagate enough to lose all your fluid. rr

    1985 6.2 injection pump

    So, you tell us you see them every day for $100 brand new. Then someone asks you where you're finding them at that price and you get pissed off and tell us we can find them for 3 times the price???? Heck, I'd like to know too. No need to be a jerk about it. rr

    cold/fast idle sensor...

    BTW, here's the sensor location I'm talking about... ETA: pay no mind to the temperature reading on my desktop. It might cause some of you northerners to feel, well, cold...

    cold/fast idle sensor...

    I was messing around under the hood and found that my cold and fast idle switch sensor was disconnected. I'm wondering if there is a certain direction the plug needs to be oriented? I can connect it either way - IOW, does it matter which color wire ends up going to which terminal on the...

    tow shackles

    So I came across these on ebay just as they were ending and pulled the trigger as the price seemed decent. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320330379686&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:US:1123 My M1009 came with one shackle that looks like the one's on the left in the photo. Is...

    M1008 Gauges

    Did some research last night, and I ended up using the port on the drivers side head at the front (dummy light connection). I cut out the section of the cluster where the 4WD/oil pressure dummy lights were and mounted the gauges in those holes. Looks very clean. I'll take some pics and post...

    M1008 Gauges

    So in that case, the card would cycle the relay at every key turn, whether hot or cold? Would the relay every stop cycling? rr

    M1008 Gauges

    Bump up for an old post... I was at checker/kragen earlier tonight picking up a new air filter.. I got to looking at their gauges.. Decided to pick some up. Got a water temp and a oil pressure gauge. They were marked at ~$25 a piece for the full kits. These rang up as gauges only at ~$15...
