I have one of the cooling kits on my M1008. After 4 trips across the USA, still seems to be holding up just fine.

Got the cab mounted back on yesterday. Lots more to do.

Here is my M1008 and M101A2 Convoy unit. The S250 and the trailer are set up for camping. Bill Nutting made me do this.....

Little more progress. Engine and transmission are in. Working on the engine bay wiring harness, lots of hidden surprises. 10 splices of questionable reliability found hiding under the split loom tubing. Edit: And another one today.

The high idle is not a function controlled by the GP card. It is turned on and off by a temperature controlled switch on the right side of the engine block near the rear of the engine.

It's been a while since there has been any real progress on the M1010. I finally got the engine back from the machine shop. They are about 2 years behind with any engine repairs. Like most places today, can not find anyone worth a darn to work.... Anyway, the engine is back together and will be...

HAHA. I forgot all about that picture.

Now where have I seen that tan truck before? Looking good Bill!

Agreed. I only use Scotch 88. Expensive, but well worth the price. 33 is designed for indoor use, 88 is the only brand of tape that we use to weatherproof antenna connections.

I wrapped mine with electrical tape to increase the diameter of the plastic tube.

I will be driving the lead vehicle. It will be the CUCV with the S250 shelter on it.

New cards with improved functions can be purchased at Hill Billy Wizard. CUCV GP Card You may also want to read up on how the controller works here: GP Controller Theory of Operation

The knob in question is to open the vent down by the drivers left foot. There is one on the passenger side as well. Pulling on it opens the vent, pushing it in closes the vent. Use caution, 40 year old plastic can become very brittle.

CUCV Injector Lines This is for an entire set of used lines. $99 If you can find them, new ones can run from $38 to $56 each. OFI has some, but not the exact one you are looking for. The 6.5L #8 line might work with some minor modifications. OFI Injection lines EBay has multiple listings for...

My M1008 seemed to have an issue with the washer and wipers, the washers would not squirt and the fast wiper speed would not work. Sometimes they would and other times they would not. The low speed seemed to work just fine. Thinking that the wiper motor assembly was bad, I changed it out and...

Let me know when you are changing it out, maybe Ill stop by with my lawn chair and supervise.

I think you should still change out the IP. This way you will know how to do it when the time comes..... Glad to hear that you found the issue!

Little more progress over the weekend. Found some unit markings on the rear of the box during the sanding job. One coat of primer and the first coat of OD. Got the Black and Brown camo on, but didn't get pictures. Planning on coating the roof inside with the Lizard Skin ceramic insulation this...

I have one of the kits on my M1008. Some people think it's not needed and others think it would be a good idea. My thought it's worth a try and would only be beneficial given the history of these engines with blocks and or heads failing. I do not have any data as to it being better or worse...
