you pull the cover off, pull out the diesel weighted governor, and slide in the gasser one. We did this on my buddies truck. the gasser will run and drive with the diesel governor, but its going to shift way to low on the rpm's. it will be a dog.

not enough traffic to warrent it, we have photo albums.

to make the diesel trans work for a gasser, you need the gasser torque convertor and you need to change out the governor on the side of the transmission, thats the only difference. The valve body is the exact same.

i would suggest that if your looking for a larger tire simpley to help with the gear ratio, that you look at some narrow 36" tires like the wrangler R/T II's used on the humvee. you may have to have the front springs replaced if they have sagged a lot, but other than that you shouldnt have any...

the rear end will have the locker regardless, all cucv pickup's got the detroit. The front is easy to test using the above method. Or you could find a large mud pit to test the truck in, :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

there is a seperate ground wire that runs from each headlight plug to the core support, check them.

Sweet you even have a handle, if your gonna make it you might as well make it easy to move, thats a great idea.

yes upping the fuel would be bad, you really need to get a pyrometer on that engine so you dont melt a piston from too high exhaust temps. really that only way to add power is to put a turbocharger on the engnine, no "quick" or "cheap" power adders for a diesel.

Yes the modulator could be broken, Any local trans shop should have the part in stock.

RE: I like your color scheme! That is one of the best, if not the best CUCV I've ever had the pleasure of seeing pictures of. TOP NOTCH work [thumbzup]

Not that what you did wont work, but you really should have contacted Saturn BEFORE you modified it to work. You didnt give them the chance to make it right.

Yours seems to have a little "yellow" problem of its own [thumbzup]

and how much does it cost? and where can i get one?

check your vacuum lines.

you have an issue with your glow plugs, I'm betting that several of them are burnt out. The correct replacement part is Wellman 070. It could also be that the glow plug relay has bad contacts. The way to test this is to get your multi-meter and check for voltage on the bottom large lug of the...

it could be the vacuum regulator on the side of the injector pump, or the governer on the side of the transmission sticking. If you disconnect the vacuum lines from the transmission it should shift, mind you it will be late and Very hard. but this will tell you if its a transmision issue or...

Hookup will be the same as the humvee, the idea is you want the towbar as near level as you can get it.

put a bar on the crank and do it the right way, bumping the starter is not a good idea.

nice mod, and i love the dual XL's

What does that caution sign read? Very nice pics.
