    Second EUC speed?

    I have gotten mine in as few as 10 days. However I have been waiting since February for my 14th EUC. If you status says "sent" then it hasn't yet been sent to TSC despite what they may tell you. They haven't actually sent it until it updates to "Submitted to TSC...". Frustrating I know...

    8 weeks and counting

    Same here. Even when you get a response it won't be useful. They will give you canned responses without even looking into your account at first. I had the best luck calling and being persistent. My sf-97 didn't get sent in by GP (presumably) until 5 months after I picked up a Humvee. I have...

    Been waiting 7 months for my sf-97 and still don't have it.

    8 weeks and counting

    I have been waiting for an EUC since the middle of March. Status was set to "EUC Sent" for 3.5 months. I got the same line about COVID but was assured it had been sent to TSC although others have been receiving theirs in the meantime. Just over a week ago it finally updated to "Submitted to...

    Knocking After Installing Rebuilt Injection Pump

    Thanks. I couldn't crack 3 of them as it was turning the entire injector and I couldn't get to the base with a second wrench. I will bring more tools and try to do that on Monday. It does seem like an injector knock to me. I was concerned trash had gotten in there, but air is more likely.

    Knocking After Installing Rebuilt Injection Pump

    If you mean inside the IP itself, then no. It was rebuilt and adjusted by a professional shop and is supposed to be correct. Is there another adjustment beside that one?

    Knocking After Installing Rebuilt Injection Pump

    A friend of mine is having a HMMWV problem that I am hoping someone here might be able to help with. While I can get most things done with minimal guidance, I am far from a diesel expert. I will describe the behavior and what we have done and include before and after videos. The injection...

    M998 New Smart start Box installed but no wait to start light or power?

    I also had one that acted similar and the problem was a loose terminal on the run switch. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

    M998 New Smart start Box installed but no wait to start light or power?

    Sounds to me like its potentially a ground issue. I would check all your grounds and consider adding a new grounding harness. . Edit: Sorry. Just reread and see that you already did this. I would still double check the grounds though, especially to the smart start. I have revived 4 and 2 of...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    If you didn't break something, you weren't having enough fun ;-) In case you didn't know, you can floor the accelerator to activate the fan disable (for 20 seconds I believe) prior to entering water. Many don't realize that option exists. Good luck!

    Weak horn

    I put this in mine today. I just used vampire taps and the existing horn bolts to mount them. It made a huge difference and doesn't sound anemic anymore. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01EG18E1U/

    Fan not cutting on

    If fan is stuck on, I would short the wires connecting to the thermostatic switch. If the fan cuts off when shorted, replace the switch. If not, replace the TDM. May want to check grounds also if you haven't already.

    Help identify mystery object found in HMMWV

    I have to admit. My first thought was vampire killing stake, but tent stake does sound more reasonable.

    Help identify mystery object found in HMMWV

    This was in my neighbors m998 he recently received. Does anyone know what it is? It's made of wood, cylindrical, pointed on one end and has a metal ring around the other. I figured someone on here might know. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Fan engaging at high RPMs with buzzing sound

    You are talking about a different thermostat. The thermal switch I am speaking of feeds into the TDM. It is an electrical component. It has two wires coming from it. Essentially it is an electrical switch and has nothing to do with water flow. When the temperature exceeds ~220F it opens the...

    Fan engaging at high RPMs with buzzing sound

    I don't follow. This thermostat is electric. It passes 24v to control the solenoid to turn on and off the hydraulic fan. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

    Fan engaging at high RPMs with buzzing sound

    UPDATE: I replaced the thermostat with a new one and it resolved the problems as expected. It definitely seems to have more pep now that the fan isn't cutting on every time I pass 1700RPMs. Old thermostat functioned fine as a thermostat other than causing the fan to cut on at higher RPMs...
