Thanks for the nice comments. And Thank You to all that have purchased cards.
The cards are made by a USN Viet Nam veteran and myself. I served in the USAF, NY and PA Air National Guard way back in the 80's.
I also employ a prior service Marine and an Army Iraq Combat Vet. Recently the Army...
Minor correction, it is 100 amps that 8 AC60's draw at 11.3 VDC.
We use these 100 and 150 amp breakers in vehicle radio installations.

From what I have found, Carmine is a bright red.
I have painted all of the interior burgundy parts in three CUCV's with this color and it works very well. This is very close to the OEM color.

A good set of tire chains is hard to beat. There are all different types for various conditions.

I check them every year, usually just before winter. This way I know that I have working glow plugs when they are needed most.
I also change the fuel filter at the same time as the GP check. I always write the date and the mileage on the fuel filter with a sharpie.
This way I have a quick...
Bringing up an old thread here with a similar problem.
I was testing the GP system on a recently acquired M1010. The wait light would come on and stay on for an extended period of time. Much longer than normal.
I would hear the GP relay close and then open as normal and the wait light stayed...
I have 2 trucks that do the exact same thing. The only way to get them to start (when the engine is warm) is to heat the glow plugs some and then they both start right away.
The M1009 has a new IP in it and all the cylinders passed a compression test.
The latest revision on the GPD2 (C...

Thanks for the suggestion I will pass it along in the next phone call.
On phone with him now.
He has some help coming.
I will be on standby ready to roll if they need anything. I'm about 2 hours away from him.

Will update as news comes in...
