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

    Main reason was the wellmans that were in truck when I first got it. 6 were swollen and 2 broke off during removal. Removed injectors and fished out the busted part. Not fun. Wanted something that wouldn’t swell and the 60Gs were the recommended ones to go with here on SS. If this set...

    It was the recommended glow plug to install here on SS. No issues until a week ago and now this. The two intact ones tested bad. Hopefully the others are intact. Over 20v were getting to them. All are toast I’m sure. Will inspect more often now. Maybe not replace like mentioned. Had to...

    secret kill switch - security - discourage possible theft?

    As already mentioned, it’s the thief with the least resistance. Have seen it hundreds of times. NOTHING is guaranteed. They will look for the easy target. Making it more difficult for them does help, but the very determined will usually prevail. It is what it is. Law enforcement does a...

    New Delphi injectors were installed less than a month ago. I did not remove Glowplugs when I installed them. Ether has not been used. Will be doing Passenger side today. Along with removing debris and installing new glow plugs. No telling how long it’s been like that.

    M1009 heater blower switch

    I think acdelco still makes that plug. Not sure of the part number. There’s a ACDelco catalog of nothing but connectors and I thought I saw it in there. Can’t find it now. You can always head to the local scrap yard and pull one off a truck there. Their not all melted hopefully.

    M101a2/a3 safety check tip

    These trailers are notorious for that and it’s been covered before. It never hurts to mention it again! Had same issue with both of mine. My first one had two critical bolts missing. These trailers definitely did not get the PM they were supposed to while on active duty.
