Replacing inner fenders and a bunch of the clips are destroyed or missing. Anyone know where I can find them? Really an unpleasant job especially with swapping over the battery trays. Been grinding all the live long day :)
Any help appreciated I have spent over an hour searching and can't find em!
it's pretty funny, I forgot what the procedure was for priming fuel system. My 1028 has been offline since January as I was in hospital and holed up in a wheelchair until a couple weeks ago. The first thread on here always seems to be how to get fuel. The filter had lost prime. I just disco'd...
I had to go on a long trip to pick up a brush hog and more than usual errand trips since my last post. I think I may have just been sticky from not a lot of use. It started to get better, but was intermittent with shutting off right away. I took it apart per walkerhunter and cleaned it with...
Bump...I just started having same issue. Mine will shut off about 5p-10 seconds after key is off. I am going to try the "clean the plunger" route and let you know.
I would think your switch settings are in the incorrect range. Check it and please get back to us. Thank you for your interest in this thread. Post up your results using the bench test I provided. I think it works awesome and am very happy with it.
THanks for all the helpful replies. I think I will check out the grease situation and then start banging it hard and often to see if it loosens up. A little lube and hard banging seems to help with these things. If not, I will do a twin stick on it. I really would like to get a twin with the...
Hi Chaski - I have a blue visor.
I guess I should take this conversation to some other forum. I don't even know how, nor does any TM I have seen suggest how, to troubleshoot the issue. A nice little rebuild and all that is probably a good idea. You have any info on what's involved? Thanks for...
Bench install and calibrate:
I took three wires, each about three feet long and installed a crimp ¼ female spade connector to one side of each. The other end of each wire strip some insulation off about ¾”.
Hook up the spades to the gauge +, - and signal connectors.
Start and warm up...
Hi,
I have checked TM's and can't seem to find how to adjust or troubleshoot shifter linkage. I have a very difficult time shifting in or out of 4Low. I don't even know for sure what the correct sequence is, but it seems only in N and stopped (I might be mistaken and maybe it's only in park)...
Hi goldneagle. The brown wire W output of the DS alternator terminates inside the truck in the STE system next to the big round STE connector. I just avoided any wire runs from the engine compartment by getting it under the dash....
AND...thank you very much, your restoration post was what got...
Thanks guys. To clarify, I tapped in "next to" the horn circuit. It's a single spade with a switched supply (only hot when key on). I am pretty sure the horn circuit fuse is jumpered to the headlight fuse, which is a troublesome circuit, but that's always hot.
I have been through a couple different ringers on trying to get a tach on my 1028. I finally got the recipe correct today.
after a couple of interesting attempts, I did get a VDO 333-156 (which I believe someone here has previously recommended). It's a 52mm 4k alternator signal gauge.
I...
I can send it to you if you want to try it....PM me if interested. I have no use for it and a sensor would cost as much as to just get the right guage to begin with. I ordered a VDO 2 1/16" from a popular auction site. The pictured guage is 3 3/8 so FYI. It would fit in the radio area or you...
I have searched to the ends of the Internet on this site and others and I think the answer to this one is "get another one that is the correct part". I got this VDO tach at a garage sale for a song. I looked at the instructions and it showed that it can be used from an alternator signal. Upon...
Escrow.com does this. You pay them, they hold the money until you get your (whatever) and once you get yours, they release the funds. Not too expensive. I have used them in the past for transactions up to about 10k US and never a problem. Best would be go in person as you would need to instruct...
