    X-Door Seals -- OEM or non-OEM?

    Not the REAL DEAL, OEM parts for X door gaskets. OK for on the cheap hobby replacement. Factory OEM are front, left and right with molded corners. Rear doors continuous strip all around. Not so cheap either. Peel and stick or plug and pray could work, CAMO

    Questions on the M998 Hmmwv Humvee

    I was looking at the bolts too and can't tell that they are stripped out. Wasn't real clear you tried to wrench on it. Anything is possible... even stripped out threads. Superman and a long wrench, I guess. Another guess from the looks of this is the hub seal is shot, spun some of the gear...

    Keyed Switch

    No comment from the bleacher here. Could be a ball or a strike, CAMO

    Grenaded rear end?

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    This is a dying art. Coupled with federal, state and local regulations of chemicals and processes used... I am surprised one could find a shop willing to mess with it. Uses to have a radiator row, shops side by side years ago in town. Two day turnaround. Came out like brand NEW, tested...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    If one searches in this forum in simple words of your problems... it will show up and give you something to go on. Recurring problem week after week. LOL See this https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/1994-m998a1-stalling-and-dying-after-a-mile-or-two.202343/#post-2356437 And the...

    Best PDF app for reading training manuals?

    I bought mine off the bay. Reprints, scans ??? BUT very nice and priced right. Worth every penny. A must have IMO. Lots of paper, Binders extra, CAMO

    Good time to do a compression check... Running solo here too, CAMO

    Wasn't having any problems until......

    Very GOOD write up's on the plug thing. In the CAMO lab I have done a bit of testing (20 years) as to my failed plugs CUCV's to HumV's. TechnoWeenie Nailed it with this: Voltage too high = burn out On too long = burn out Excess cycling = burn out Not a lot of control over voltage. It's...

    Voltage gauge pulsing after startups

    Same box... does it all. Don't forget you may need to pair it to the TSU in the truck in question. Could be the box ? Could be the TSU ? What seens to be the problem? Summers on the way, CAMO

    Wasn't having any problems until......

    NOPE ... and yes. That's why I say... KNOW your Humv voltmeter characteristics... static, discharging, glowing, charging. YEP, said that. 100 X's Battery voltage fluctuation are common in the HumV. Many variables apply, poor batteries, connections, ohmic losses in the wires, loads place on...

    Adding AC to my M1045A2?

    One little psst-ing sound or a big PSSSST... and your out of gas and into the wallet. Bigger chance of taking a bath in the refrigerant oil. Ozone safe, low toxicity... just like Play Doh, CAMO

    Wasn't having any problems until......

    OK riddle me this. OK... I got the string of 8 patio light. 110 volt wired in a parallel circuit. Each bulb same voltage same wattage. One burns out... maybe two overtime. Did the other six get more voltage or brighter? I don't remember the others getting brighter and burn out like a...

    Little confused with this concept. Could you explain? No need for a blow dryer, CAMO little hair here LOL

    Voltage gauge pulsing after startups

    RWH and gang....That is correct. The CAMO-4-GA tester shows this "glow" pulse clearly. Also check ALL of the other "BOX" internal functions in a real world loading, in a bench setting. No need for diesel fumes. LOL Best one can do is to watch your volt meter for proper operation. At night...

    Fuel pump installation advice and tips, tricks to bleed fuel lines.

    No need to make a mess. Just crank it over a few time allowing a short rest in between attempts. If that pump is any good it will do its job. Third or fourth time should be coughing, chugging and running. If for some unknown reason the 8 injector lines are dry... might have to crack a couple...

    MANUALS and how to use them!

    Been said a 100000000 times... Bought the truck, now buy the TM's or at least down load a free one. Just like those pricey parts one puts on, having the TM's increases the resale value too, when sold. (She will sell it) And for the real lazy... pictures. Lots and lots of picture. See...
