Ever since I bought my 09 the tailgate window handle would slip and eventually went out completely (blazer SOP). I finally got around to getting the crank and the clutch replaced only to find out that the gears in the regulator are stripped out...:doh: I found one on LMC for 100 bucks which isnt...

Well, my M1009 is down for the count now. had to buy a second vehicle so i don't have to worry about the breakdowns during the winter months. hopefully once my tools are mostly paid off and spring comes, ill be able to start building her the way i want. cant wait to get it running like a champ...

Got a gp that's badly swolen. Anybody have tips for getting them out?

I have seen threads stating that 24v starting systems are better in cold weather, my question is why? Yes, voltage is the force that pushes current but i was always under the impression that the more current you have going through an electric motor the stronger it will be. 12v with two batteries...

I went outside today to start my truck to do some running around. I get in and cycle my glow plugs for about 10-15 seconds. turn the key and it doesn't want to fire over. stop and recycle the plugs, turn the key to start, cranks for a few seconds then just stops. I can hear the starter relay...

A while back I put a manual glow plug button in my m1009. At first I was able to get them to cycle with the key on and get an after glow. Iv taken off the instrument cluster panel once since then and now I can only cycle them with the key off. Im pretty sure that I did t short any wires...

Just bought an arctic fox oil pan heater due to toe cold climate. i was told by my parts guy at work that 10 minutes should be sufficient to heat the oil enough for a smooth crank over, however turns out that doesn't seem to be the case. is there a point where it becomes dangerous to leave the...

been having trouble starting my M1009 in the cold lately, pretty sure the batteries are shot on it. I have no idea how old they are but even with having my oil pan heater on for a while plus having somebody hook up to my first battery (dont know anybody else with a 24v system) it just will not...

Iv had a cold misfire for a while now and finally got around to finding which glow plug was bad. Cylinder no. 3 was open so I went to NAPA and got a 60g plug. The blade turned out to be a lot bigger than the one that I pulled out so I had to shave a little bit off the sides (probably not a good...

Im in a bit of a bind. Im about to move out of state and need a trailer to bring my stuff. I was able to deal with the pintle hitch problem, bought a combo one from farm and fleet, but now I need a wiring adapter for the trailer lights. Anybody done a conversion or bought an adapter and can give...

I have had a leak in my fuel tank for a while now and cant seem to fix it so im just gonna need to bite the bullet and buy a new one i think. My problem is that the TMs say that the tank is a 27 gallon tank and everywhere i look i cant find one that is 27. The closest i was able to find was a 25...

Im having a problem pulling up the tech manuals so i cant pull up what i need to look up. if somebody could give me some help with my question that would be very helpful. my generator no. 1 light is coming on in my 84 M1009 (very dim) and i need to test the output of it, however i need to know...

Im sure there are threads on this out there already but i have limited time at the moment to search for them. I need to get a new set of tires for my 1984 M1009 (7 years old and one of them has a pretty steady leak). I know that from the factoy they come with 31/10.5/15 tires. I was planning on...
