    Battery compartment question

    Guys, This is my battery box (M-915-A1). I hit a bad bump and it has put me up a creek. The mechanic I called thought we found the problem with a shorted out front turn signal. That fixed now the truck won't turn over. Pushing the start button just buries the needle to the left of the volt...

    Some GL questions

    I hope this funnier than my post. A guy takes his dog to the Vet., and tells him to cut Fido's tail off. The Vet asks why. The guy answers: "My mother-in-law is coming for a visit next week, and I want all chances that she might think we are happy to see her here eliminated.".

    Some GL questions

    1. Do they have a title in hand? 2. Will they give me a paper plate to get home? 3. Will they let me move the truck and check it over good when I go for the inspection? 4. Am I nuts to plan on driving a truck home 400 miles? If there is a better topic to put this in please tell me. Thanks

    8.3 cummins fan clutch

    I wondered if my fan clutch worked until today. The fan on my 915a1 had never engaged as far as I knew. I assumed the worst until today when I left the hood opened while I started the truck. The service air pressure was low and the fan spun to beat the band until operating pressure built up. At...

    Lights/Charging problem on 1984 M915a1

    I have lights! I took a jumper and went to one headlight with 12 volts. They both lit up. So I decided they weren't getting energy from the cab for some reason. I decided the wiring on the old switch was wrong and I transferred the mess to the new switch. The reason I bought a new switch is...

    Lights/Charging problem on 1984 M915a1

    Well,I put in a new switch. No change. What puzzles me is what would seem to be the most delicate of the systems on the truck (clearance lights) is working flawlessly.

    Lights/Charging problem on 1984 M915a1

    That sounds like you have to be fairly handy with fabrication to go your route. Was it a huge undertaking? Or is it something a person who can solder pretty well put together?

    Lights/Charging problem on 1984 M915a1

    I pulled the light switch yesterday and it is crumbling apart. Ordered a replacement. Is the system you have of your design or is it a kit available somewhere? Thanks for the help. Oh BTW, my 1984 has been configured for GPS. There is a magnetic antenna mount on the back of the cab that rises to...
