    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Marcus, Actually some of the pictures were added to help a member with exactly what you suggested. He needed some info on one of the items that are on the rear of the engine that is not easily seen. Your idea of having pictures of the more difficult and unseen places is a good one. I'm trying...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    That's a good idea, I should have completed that prior to reinstalling the power plant. Never even thought of that modification. This truck is being refurbished to participate in the MVPA 2019 Convoy. After it's back together the modified S250 Camper will be added to it.

    m1008 glow plug/wait light issue

    I think dougco1 is on the right track. Disconnect the temperature sending unit that goes to the GP card and see if the Wait light comes on and the card closes the GP relay when you try to start the engine. By disconnecting the sensor, you give the card a high resistance on the sensor input to...

    M1010 fire rig to camper conversion

    This glow plug card has an "additional heat" option to turn the glow plugs on when the engine is warm. http://www.glowplugcards.com/ I moved this thread to the CUCV forum.

    1985 M1028 Gen 2 light

    Can you get the original alternator rebuilt? It is a simple alternator and most any competent rebuild shop should be able to do it. Many of the members here have rebuilt their own with parts that are available in the Classified section. Here is more info on how to do that...

    1985 M1028 Gen 2 light

    The ground on GEN2 is isolated, if it wasn't the sparks would fly. The terminal marked - on GEN2 is the ground.The GEN 2 ground is NOT the same as the ground on GEN1. GEN1 Positive is connected to the GEN2 Ground terminal, this terminal is isolated from the GEN2 case ground. It is "floating...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    That indeed is a MT45F unit! I have it running on a 24 VDC battery system or 120VAC when connected to a shore line. It works very well and draws very little current. On the hottest of days during the RT66 Convoy, the unit ran for 2-3 minutes in a 15 min span. When parked for 3 days the...

    CUCV manual glow plug switch install issue

    That's why the stud is there and not a rivet. You can have the normal card functions and a by-pass function without ever touching the vehicle wiring. Add a wire to that stud, thru a momentary switch to ground and have a push button by-pass. Just one of the few modifications that were added to...

    M1009 steel brake line diameter/size

    I called Inline Tube a couple of weeks ago to order new brake lines. The person that answered the phone informed me that they have "no brake lines for a K30 Chevy. We have nothing for trucks over 3/4 ton" I just said "Ok, good bye."

    6.2 Revving and Missing
