Hi
When the engine is cold the solenoid will disengage after one or two turns. Once she is warmed up from either the block heater or from been driven she will start right away .
My thought is that the starter solenoid is the problem.
I hope that this is making sense .

Hi
When I try starting her she will turn over but disengage . Sometimes she will stay engage long enough to start . Once she is warmed up she's fine.
Is this a problem with the starter or the solenoid ? Has anyone used a rebuild kit with any luck?

Hi
I have a 1991 and when I'm driving , I hear a whistling like sound and when the fan kicks in it get's much louder.
I'm thinking It my be something with the fan assembly but what I'm not sure. Belts seem to be tight.
Any ideas?
Ken
Good day
Question, is it normal for the fan belts to bounce up and down when she is running? I have adjusted the tension on them with no change.
Thanks

HI
Replaced the voltage regulator and brushes but still in the yellow. Measured voltage at the voltage regulator with her running and measured 24 volts.
Question? Am I reading just the battery voltage at this point? Is there a way I can measure just the alternator output?
Other ideas?

Hi
I have added a regular trailer hitch to my Humvee . I have it wired right now for 24 v but want to change it to 12v . Not sure what would be the best way.
Need ideas.

Hi
Ok, with the batteries charged up and the engine running, my volt gage runs in the middle of the yellow. I added leads across the gage, and it is reading around 22 volts. As I drive her the gage will run down to the bottom of the yellow and still read about 22 volts.
Is there a way I can...
Hi
I am on my third heater. The first one lasted about a year and a half. The second about three months and the last about three weeks. All three are Kat heaters. I have made sure that the heating element wasn't touching on the inside and I never had them plugged in over four hours.

Hi
I installed a Kat's frost plug heater last year and it worked fine for a year and then went bad. I installed another one a month ago and it has gone bad also. I used the latest one about six times. Has anyone else had any problems with this brand? Is anyone using a different brand with good...
Hi
I posted this problem before and the responses didn't help. Still thanks for the help. Anyway I unhooked the fuel line coming out of the fuel filter and fuel is coming out. One question I have is should it be a steady stream or a pulsing one? Also someone said to check the automatic fuel...
Hi
Was driving home and she started acting like she wasn't getting fuel. Started lunging and as I turned up my driveway she killed and would not start again just would turn over.
I pulled the hose off the output on the fuel filter and fuel is coming out. So what do you think I should check...
Hi
91 humvee with a 60 amp generator. I cleaned out all the brush dust and the brushes looked OK. Looked over the regulator and didn't see anything obvious . With it running and the voltage gage is running in the middle of the yellow I am reading 25 volts . The gage will run in the green at...
