Yes, shipping the one I bought did make my wallet scream but it was something that floated to the top of my must-do list. My back can't take bending over those batteries under the seat. I drove the M923 to the corner gas station yesterday and I think the Dexron III makes it shift easier. Up...

I drained the trans and replaced with Dexron III, ran the truck for awhile, then drained again, replaced the filters (kinda messy) and replaced the fluid again. The goal obviously to dilute as much of the EO as as possible. I need to test drive it and will let you know if I can "feel" a...

I bought my NAPA one on ePay for about $15 (same one above). It works SUPER! My M923 will start cold but it takes lots of cranking and throttle. If I plug the block heater in for a couple hours, I swear it starts in less than one crank. It's worth it. I'll do some testing this winter when...

Google the MIL spec for the grease type. You'll see lots of civy equivalents, many from your FLAPS. Happy greasing! Also, check out the Lube Order (LO) and it will also answer your second question. Al Jones '84 M923 '70 M35A2 (a sweetie for sale) '55 M38A1

And here are the last two pics. Note that the top battery box does not slide all the way in. Numbnut (me) did not follow the directions to a T and I installed the slave receptacle wrong. I clocked it 90 degrees and all fits fine now. So after that, I finished my flush of the transmission...

OK, the project is complete. The following are the latest pics. These four pics show how the battery cables are mounted to the buss bars and how they lay in the box. All new cables are included in the kit. These pictures show how the batteries mount in the battery boxes, and then in the...

One can all winter???? Wow, that's a lot of ether use. I think my can will last me my entire life! And there is a spare mounted under the hood. Two lifetimes! Al Jones '84 M925

That is fantastic. Thanks for sharing!!!

You want to be careful. Someone replaced the bulbs in my M923 with something nonstandard (not per the TM) and they melted the plastic covers. It was a MESS to disassemble them and fix (cover melted into socket) - had to replace two of the sockets. Plus, I had to find the correct covers (mine...

I did a bad thing and left the master on after doing some electrical diagnosis on my M923. I think it's a PITA having those batteries under the seat in my M923 when it comes to working on them. Here are shots of the box all rusty 'n such.:p Nice of Minot to install a new box and wood before...

All the tech articles are gone and even the TM's are stale. I wonder if all that good stuff will ever get reposted and/or the TM's updated...? Thanks for posting it here.

And now they are gone. Where are they now???

These instructions are not in the TM section. Any chance the old resources section is out there or can anyone PM me that has them? Thanks.

It's interesting. My M923 used to downshift firm but not harsh. I noticed that it does have a new modulator installed. I swapped out the 10 weight motor oil for Dex III and it's downshifts pretty nice now.

If I use my high pressure grease gun, I can see grease start to come out from between the cap and knucke. That means its going in, but nowhere for it to go. Is that nornal? Thanks, Al Jones '84 M923

After reading posts and the TMs on the M900 series, the following questions remain - your help is answering them is appreciated: 1) I see the front propeller shaft trunnion bearing is mounted in a slotted rubber bushing. What is the acceptable "play" when using a mechanics pry bar? Not a six...

I put a search into eBay for the panhead screws (search by part number from the TMs) and came with an exact match of 100 in the box for less than $10. I guess I'm in screws for awhile now. :-? Al Jones '84 M923

I see you have the fuel tank ventilation MWO update/upgrade. Could it be that? Trace the lines from the fuel tank to the stack. Could it also be a restriction that might cause the air noise (vent kit again)? My kit was installed poorly and had rubbed itself until it was restricted in one...

My ABS problem was a short on the dump solenoid on the blue circuit, not the ECU. But I followed the troubleshooting procedure and found my short. I did have the Info Centre too and that helped, but I followed both procedures for "fun". Al Jones '84 M923

Positive. See Motherlode of TM's thread where we talk about the 23 series TMs. PM your email address and I will send it to you. The site boss'es have 'em, they just haven't put them up yet. Al Jones '84 M923
