    Pushbutton upgrade for thumbless people.

    I agree. But if you dont have $100+ card and even a socket, this is option. :)

    Cold weather coming, check your heater box for debris!

    CUCV Heaven, My build of a 1009 and 1008

    This should be water in fuel diode. In my 1008 it was burned. Removed it and put straight wire there. I dont remember, was WIF light worked before, but after diode removal light works as should - lights about half second when key in run position...

    My (new) M1008...

    Yes, this "special solvent" is pricey. But as they use cleaner to clean large hydraulic parts from veneer line, i can "sneak in" my small injectors :) Starter trouble was dissapointing indeed. It went thru workshop month or so ago, everything was OK, they said. I check starter of course, i was...

    My (new) M1008...

    Thanks! I definitely try that. Our company bought ultrasonic cleaner few weeks ago (large one). Can you advise, what solvent to use? It must be non flammable, i presume? About truck - put used injectors in, primed with electric pump, cranked 3..4 times and it runs! Well it ran some 5 seconds and...

    Last (and only) cold start advance/high idle post/question

    Yes, this is cold start/hi idle sensor. In my 1008 wires were also cooked, hard and brittle. I changed wires, cleaned connector and sensor works again as should.

    M1009 suppressor

    Lam, i bought for my 1009 standard 100AH 850A (303x175x227mm) batteries. They both fit to rear battery holder, in this way i have more room under bonnet. No problems, last morning was -1C, car started like in summer.
