Maybe have your batteries bench tested. If your 60 amp regulator almost started a fire and damaged your smart box they may be bad and showing yellow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is there a way to remove the flywheel cover without removing anything else like the drive shaft or the crossover exhaust? It's a 6.5 na that has I believe the two piece cover. It has the separate part that removes to expose the starter bendix gear. I have a ticking that seems to be coming...

Hot **** NDT! You were right. I pulled the negative cable to the starter and sure enough the brass was green and crusty. I thought I cleaned them up good last year. I noticed when I took off the nut to the battery box it was barely past finger tight. I never think of those connections when I'm...

NDT, you are awesome! Assuming I did the last test correctly I think that is the bad cable. I had to jam the positive test probe between the positive stud and battery clamp, crawl under hmmwv and put the negative on the negative post on the starter. It showed 0.00. So like I said, if that was...

Thanks. I am looking at the condition of the actual cords themselves right? I understand they could be internally corroded and I may not be able to tell other than cutting the covers off. I guess I could just replace one at a time until I find the bad one. Also could it be the shunt itself...

I have to check where I grounded them tomorrow, but the problem persists even when I disconnect the aux lights from the battery and connect the batteries as per the tm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes Action. The fan. It was a simple hookup right to the positive stud of the battery. I hooked in an inline 30 amp fuse. I didn't touch any of the hmmwv wiring. The weird thing is that the aux lights won't turn on even they are on their own toggle and the fuse is good. It's hooked right up to...

I did as requested and it did register 0.00. So what ring terminal should I look at? For a goose chase you sure were spot on lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Grounds and batteries clean, good, and tight. Batteries at 25.5volts. 1987 6.5 na that went to Maine in 2006 for rebuild. I replaced the 60 amp with a 200 about 2 months ago and everything's fine. Today I went to start and the light blinked once and then no power. None at all when I turn the...

I use mine for the farm and to help manage my wood lot. It's great at getting to places to haul the logs I cut for the winter. I have 200 acres so it's also an off-road truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Action, I don't have the fording stack. I only have the little 4 inch extension because of the snow around here. I know the snow needs to be cleared around the intake for it to breathe and did clear it :) I never had to do maintenance on them but I did drive them for years in the Air Force...

Lol. If you think that's bad Lionel, the wind chills were in the -40s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haha. I was just going to post about the same thing. It was -1 here yesterday so I figured I would start the truck just to see if it would. Well, it fired right up. It surprised the **** out of me that it didn't even struggle. It even had about a foot of snow sitting on the hood. I do add that...

Good advice 86! Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks 86. I will do that, but if I have the sound isolated to that one cylinder wouldn't pulling the belts only tell me if it is a problem pulley? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I should add that the tick is only noticeable once the engine is warm and quieted down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The knock is still there. Not really a knock but more of a tick. I am going to pull the valve cover sometime at the end of the week to see if I can find a problem with the rocker, springs, and/or push rods. I will post a video with the engine running so you all can hear the tick I hear if that...

Thanks doghead. That makes sense now. So it could be anything it that cylinder then. If I find it is not the injector tomorrow is there something I can do to find out what is making the sound? It sounds just like in the video that springbok posted in his thread. Sent from my iPhone using...

I will try that tomorrow Action. What could be the problem if it's not the injector then? Could the line be bad that connects to it? I really hope it is not a rod. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I had a knock that went away when I cracked the fuel line to one of my injectors (2nd from the front on the passenger side). I ordered a new injector from Kascar and installed it today. The knock is still there but goes away when I crack the fuel to it. I am a novice but I thought a sign of a...
