Tonight pulled check valve off IP,its one piece,no glass ball and no place one would fit,really don't think its a check valve,can blow thru both ways,inside is reduced way down.It also has an o ring gasket red orange in color.Is this a newer style IP? Sorry its a 1985 M1009 6.2.

Optima yellows or reds for 1009?

Thank you.

Its starting harder than normal,when driving at normal speeds the rpms seem to increase and motor knocks get louder,its almost like someone pushed throttle open further,if I let off throttle or increase throttle it goes back to normal sound.Its like I can almost feel gas pedal move down when...

Never been into it that far.When I did calipers,pads,mastercylinder and hydroboost the rotors and bearings felt good so didn't pull rotors off. I would never leave one axle locked and one free.

We are currently getting 6-9 inches of snow, so I put mine in 4wd and locked in hubs,sometimes when front brakes lock up and slide on ice I hear a gear grinding noise coming from end of axle,passenger side. Could this just be the lockout splines are worn or the axle end splines? And it only does...

No expert but thinking tank style heater wont heat coolant hot enough to open thermostat to release coolant to radiator,just kinda spurts hot coolant into heater core and block.

Honestly first time I ever used on any of my motors and this is my first diesel,but she started instantly.I am kinda amazed,It was probably more like a 1 second shot.

power service additives is what I normally use,dumped 8oz winter and 8oz 911 in tank,pulled aircleaner top, shot with 2 seconds of start fluid and she fired right up,instantly,I have manual glows and did not use! Thanks.

For the first time in 2 1/2 years and 23k miles my 1009 failed to start,I don't blame her tho,its been pretty cold here lately and havnt started in 3 days.It was 5 last night with windchill of -10.Guess its time for a rebuilt IP and a block heater.I also forgot to dump in fuel additive last fill...

I want to do a tank style install,Is there a block drainplug on both sides of block behind motor mounts?Does anyone know the thread size?This is the point I want to use to feed tank heater,

scottladdy, I look forward to your install as I have a Kim Hotstart TPS151GT10-000 I have yet to install.Wish I had done it this past summer..

Very nice,where did you get the snorkel? Like it !

The first time yes,brake fluid every where.Second time no.

That's what I was thinking haha,or maybe a disgruntled neighbor when I start her up at 5:20 am..

Today went to replace a rear brakeline that has been leaking,popped the hood so I could top off mastercylinder when done,and found m/c cover laying between inner fender and core support,the lever lock was on and is tight fit.This is the second time this has happened! It never happened until rear...

27.99 at my local autozone,forgot about wallyworld !

My 85 1009 has been doing this same thing for about six months now,I have manual glows so I spin motor for about 5-6 seconds to prime inj.pump,then glow for 10-15 seconds and she starts right up,but now its getting cold here and getting worse so after Christmas gonna do new IP and injectors from...

At around 27$ per gallon is it really worth it? How many miles between changes? Did you notice any differences in mileage and start up noise?I do run synthetics in my gas motors and like them,stays clean a long time.

Hughes Performance has treated me right,#GM5XFM-1,its 1000-1200 stall,
