    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    I installed the Gas Magnums front and back on my M1028 - one of the best things I've done so far to the truck. The sway bar- I used the energy suspension poly bushings for the front sway bar. They were like $19 on jegs and worked perfectly. They do their job perfectly. Literally the handling...

    which paint?

    I think a lot of guys are recommending Behr exterior paint from Home Depot. I havent used it myself but there is a thread ( http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/76210-behr-paint-jobs-show-me-your-mvs.html ) that shows it off. I do plan on using it because of its numerous benefits. Check out the...

    I thought my GPs were working properly, now I dont know...

    Ok so old sensor out and new sensor in. It seemed to fix the problem! With the engine partially warm the sensor read 40k Ohms- so basically open. I replaced it and cycled the plugs and with a semi warm motor they only cycled for about 8 seconds instead of the 15 that it used to ALWAYS do. I...

    Marvel Mystery Oil

    Hahaha I run Power Service diesel additive through it all the time. I had some MMM and figured what the ****, Lets throw some in! My vehicles are pampered and live a very "normal" life. I dont think a few ounces of MMM in a tank of diesel will make a difference. She runs good regardless. I...

    Marvel Mystery Oil

    I am fully aware of these facts- A little MMM shouldnt affect anything that already isnt going to fail. Its not like running WMO is any better (IIRC that didnt fair any better in the wear test) but who cares. Will

    Alright- I know that CUCV Electric has the temp sensor, but off hand does anyone know if it is available through a parts store like NAPA or Autozone? Like what is the make and part number in case I do have to replace it? Will

    I thought my GPs were working properly, now I dont know...

    Alright, so I have an 86 M1028. It has fresh GP relay, and all new GP's. It starts fine no matter what. One thing though- I watched this video and this is NOT how my system operates. Heres how mine does- Cold start: Turn key, light on for like 15 seconds, this whole time I can hear...
