Hello cpf, Yes, loose connection in the wiring behind the dash. Minor fix. No big deal. But I am having a local reputable shop put in glow plugs. Before the winter comes. So all is well... Thank you for asking...

I am not gullible enough to believe the snakes out there would get THAT big, also, big snakes like that would not be going after spiders. They would go after meat. As in wild animals... I have been raised with snakes for most of my life, and studied them a bit... Just my $0.02 cents....

C'mon Zout, Snakes THAT big cannot be loose in Durhamtown, pythons are not native to Georgia, as far as I know, especially THAT big. Also, the third photo of the snake eating a something.. looks like it was taken someplace more tropical like the everglades or somewhere like that. Just...

Hello Whiskerz, and Squirt-truck... Welcome to Steel Soldiers, from Marietta, Ga... If you are ever in this or the Atlanta area, and need any assistance, or just want to stop by and talk MV, let me know. I would be glad to help, and/or just talk... Good day

Hello guys, Thanks again for all the information, it is all duly noted, considered, and understand. And I will do what is needed to get it running again. Good day...

Hi guys, Thank you for all the replies. My apologies for posting the question and not searching the tm's or searching the forums. But when you are in a time crunch, like I was this morning. Some times it is just faster to ask a direct question from knowledgeable people. Everyone...

Hi guys, My M1009 will not start. I turn the key, I see all the dash lights come on, the voltmeter needle is on the white line between yellow and red, I get the click of the doghead relay. Then nothing... It started and ran great yesterday, (Sunday). I tried jump starting it...

re; Hello From Louisiana . Hello Richard, Thank you for the compliment and you are welcome... I say what I mean, and I mean what a say... I am here to help. Good night...

Dear Sir Charlie, Yes, it would not be a bad idea to have your starter rebuilt to military standards by a reputable shop, that has been in business a long time. After all, you said it was last rebuilt 11-12 years ago, so it has been awhile. Also, in place of the momentary contact switch...

Hello Bellhorsepower, Welcome to Steel Soldiers, from Marietta, Ga... If you are ever in this or the Atlanta area, and need any assistance, or just want to stop by and talk MV, let me know. I would be glad to help, and/or just talk... Good day

Yes, I have a job, but my manager called me yesterday and told me to take today off, because business would be slow, so I told him okay, and call me if he needed me. 2cents

Hello Olivestump, Recover the truck if you still can. Then sell it to a local. That sounds like the best way to go. That way you keep your honor and word of following thru with it. You will not have to pay any penalties, and/or the entire amount. And you may make at least some of the money...

re; Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread Hello Zout, Are those photos of this years Ga Rally site at Durhamtown Plantation?

re; Plastic draincock STRIPPED!! FUEL LEAK! Hello 86, Okay, duly noted. I look forward to seeing them. Thank you...

Hi all, I just put it on my calender. I will plan on being there unless an act of God prevents me, especially since it is only about a 20-30 minute drive from where I live. See you all there, (any of you that show up anyway... ) I will be bringing my M1009, and with any luck, it will...

re; Plastic draincock STRIPPED!! FUEL LEAK! Hello 86, You would not happen to have a photo of those needle valves installed, do you? Sounds like it would be a good idea for me to do to my M1009 too. Thank you...

Hi guys, Instead of buying an aftermarket 24v starter. Why not find a local auto electric shop to rebuild it. Zout and I know of a shop in the Atlanta area that does great work, at a fair price, and has been in business for something like 30+ years. I had done business with them, not...

re; What batterie to get in M1009 Blazer? Hi, When my mil issue batteries finally went, I got another pair of them from NAPA. But I also put a 24v solargizer on my hood, a few months before replacing my batteries. So I know the new batteries should last longer then expected. Good luck...

Hi guys, Ferro is not nuts... Trains are cool too, especially since they are always carrying military equipment. I like trains too. A train forum would be acceptable too.

Hello Swinters, After the last time the old stock starter relay fried my starter. I replaced the starter, the fuisble link wire, etc., both batteries, both alternators, both of those small square under dash relays, with relays I got from cucvelectric, and got a glow plug controller card from...
