    Resistor fire

    You posed " Why do you think the GP relay had 23 volts run through it? "

    Resistor fire

    It's doubtful that the resistor would ever fail in this circuit. It's just half of the voltage divider. The glow plugs are the other half and that half is divided into 8, which is what causes the cascade failure. Honestly one dead plug isn't likely to have much effect. Two, probably not much...

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    So I split the tractor and got the "bullet" out of it along with the pump. Splitting it wasn't that bad at all. Those long bolts worked great. I've put the tractor back together. And today I picked up a 135 to pull all the PTO and 3pt parts off off. Everything came off pretty easy. But there's a...

    Resistor fire

    Because the glow plug system in the CUCV runs off the 24v side, it goes through the resistor bank on the firewall as I mentioned earlier to step down to 12v through a voltage dividing circuit.

    Resistor fire

    If the glow plugs are showing no resistance and an open, then unfortunately they're burnt up. The CUCV uses a resistor on the firewall that works as a voltage divider circuit. The problem is the fact the glow plugs are 12v. When a glow plug fails, that means the restive value of the rest of...

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    There's absolutely no reason to attack other forums. Let's stop with the arguing about what forum is better.

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    I'm a little confused? We have a separate section just for the HMMWV family here?

    TM Distribution restrictions ...

    Thank you for the reminder/explanation. I have had several communications with different DOD personal about things that had to be removed. On the flip side, interestingly, we routinely have military personal register here for TM's they don't have access to!

    M35a2 Overdrive Kits

    Nope, he stopped making the kits. It was a break even or loss on the kits at best from what I recall.

    Massey Ferguson 40 tractor

    So, there's a few issues with it. It's honestly useless. There's no pto shaft or any of the 3pt lift stuff. I started checking on the hydraulic pump and saw there was no output. (It will only pump with the range in neutral and throttle/forward direction applied from the pedal) so I pulled the...

    20" beadlocks, HEMTT o-ring kit, and lugnuts

    Looking for at least 5 beadlocks. I'm looking for these style beadlocks. Also looking for at least one o-ring for the HEMTT rim. Also looking for 30 of the e-5995r and 30 of the e-5995l lug nuts.

    Homemade Load Bank

    One of my other hobbies is high voltage/telsa coils/other electrical oddities. And we're constantly looking for a better means to ballast pole transformers and such. The other day I saw where someone cannibalized a electric stove range and use the heating elements and sockets to make a...
