Yup,,, I got a new relay, but decided to try the old one after I redid the connectors and it was fine. I'm gonna keep the new one and put it into the box with all the other "spares",,, Gonna need a bigger box. I'd like to do the injectors but it looks a bit daunting,, especially the one on the...

Victory!! I crimped new connectors on the wires,, soldered all the crimps, heat shrunk tubing and covered all the connections with Plasti-Dip rubber insulator. Started right up for me. Put some new belts on the alternators,, and I'm done with that part of the project. Started it up and took it...

I will check these in the AM,, Thanks doghead.

Correct me if I'm wrong,,, the military wants a CUCV,, something that commercial parts are available for,,, they buy a K5 Chevrolet Blazer,,, fine. Then they drop a 6.2 Detroit Diesel into it,,, but it takes more voltage to reliable crank it over,, so they have to up it to 24 Volt because it...

A friend of mine had one that spontaneously tried to start,, by the time he got to it, the starter was on fire and burnt a bunch of wiring,, reason #1 for doing the Mod,,,

Yes,, I do.

Yes,, first thing. Getting tired of those clamps,, pretty sure I messed up one of the crimps. It made no sound at all when I hit the ignition.

Nice looking job Mainsail,, I think I will use shrink wrap too. I was wondering this as well,, I've been checking out the setup while not bolted up under the dash,, could this make any difference? I didn't want to cover the connections and bolt the mounting plate back in before I knew it was...

I got a new relay and connectors and will re do it tomorrow,, I'm thinking I may not have gotten the crimp right. It's so simple, it must be me. It had no issues at all before,, except for trying to start spontaneously,, hence the Doghead relay. Hopefully I can get it working in the morning.

Hi guys,, need some help,, I got the proper relay from NAPA and installed exactly as instructed. Printed the final photo and had it with me. The 1009 started fine before,, had a few false starts due to the old relay system, so I decided to change it. Now it won't start at all, new military...

So that is where you add the wire that will lead to the manual glow plug switch? I'm looking at the manual,, is there anyplace that sells the paper manual,, I'm fond of turning actual pages.

Is the Glow Plug Relay the one by the brake cylinder,, not sure. I've been told that one is one of the few weaknesses.

I'll have to check the manuals out in more depth,, I'm working with an I pad mini,, not too much storage there. That sounds like the easiest fix yet,, thanks. There is so much here at this site. It's gonna take some exploring.

Hello,,, new to the site and know this has probably been discussed before. I've heard that the card can be bypassed, but not that familiar with the search process here. Can anyone post a link to this information. I have a 1986 M 1009 that runs pretty good. I'd like to make it as reliable as...
