    Injection pump won't move when turning crank.

    Doubbble check me... gear set marks point to each other. Bottom at 12 up, top at 6 down and the pump only fits one way. There's a poop sheet on the torque specs. And get ready for this.... TM's Trying to be nice for a Tuesday, CAMO

    Injection pump won't move when turning crank.

    That is a nice truck for $7900. Almost stole it HAha. Still scratching my head how clean and dry it is inside that engine. Might want to take a look at the thermostat to see what's might be gummed up there. With it out flush all you want. It would be a bitch if it was a new rig and Opps...

    Rear Tire Camber

    Already knew it was wack, so that printout would +/- be a starting point if the math holds true. Once one get the hang of it ig goes quick. I pulled the shims. placed a thin pry bar between the frame and cup. Wheels on the ground one can work the bar to fine tune and determine shim thickness...

    5w40 diesel oil

    Prices going up. What. I was looking at the "ZONE" at batteries prices. Counter help said three price hikes in the last three months. That $124 battery was now $185. OUCH! Tell me... this isn't true, CAMO

    HMMWV injection pump.

    Lines are easy. Complete set or singles. Might want to block off those open intake ports. Bird making a nest or a squirrel dropping a nut in there? That would be my luck LOL Let your fingers do the searching, CAMO

    Happy day, M1123 arrived today, question on fuel line

    Can't t say good or bad on the HumV sales guys. Guess a phone call and ask or take the leap. It's not a big deal till it leaks on the trail. When it leaks... THAT's can be a BIG deal. I would suggest on these New / OLD rigs is to get familiar with the "systems" and the fuel is a good place...

    Happy day, M1123 arrived today, question on fuel line

    I have had a little trouble with that hose. Looked good, sounded good, no PITA clips, German made, etc. What could go wrong? Later on develops a little slit at the injector barb and leaks. That's on two engines rebuilt. Tight fitting barb to injector housing to get it seated. Or the weave...

    Glow Plug “ON” light

    Almost right. As drawn one would need a current limited resistor. Try a 680 ohm resistor 1/4 watt in series with the device as drawn or it will be toast before you can say papa...kb. 28 volt military style panel lamp and housing works nice. CAMO said that.

    HMMWV just delivered. Do I try and start after fresh fuel, oil and filters?

    My two cents, (Don't take this to serious) Your're the one... Boots on the ground, eye on the prize. Slow your "roll" ... research the TM's. Ask more questions here and add some nice pictures. Lots of good ideas on the forum to wake up this sleeping giant. Hoses and buzzing, notes on the...
