    How To Repair HMMWV EESS S3

    The underside of the bread board is probably destroyed. Look at the post above you, post number 85. That is your best course of action.

    Glow plug tip broke off while engine was running.

    Did you try compressed air? In through glow plug hole and out through injector hole.

    Highway Cruising Speed

    Thinking of swapping in a pair of 2.56 into my M1165. Already own them years now. Brand new old stock. Bought the pair for cheap. Time to use them.

    What is the max amperage consumption on ECV with lights and A/C on?

    Looking to swap alternators. Long story… Advanced question… What is the max power consumption on a vehicle with lights and flashers and a/c with fans on, perhaps with aftermarket radio and CB radio? Will a 24V 100 amp alternator cover the amperage?

    Highway Cruising Speed

    Somehow Juan Prado swears he drives 70MPH in his three speed. One wonders if moonshine and zydeco music have affected his perceptions. Something about his truck is special.

    Installing Antenna tip

    The method is similar to that used by King Minos of Crete. Not much has changed in 5000 years. 🙄

    Max, Your enthusiasm for the site is wonderful and well placed. Respectfully, I’m not comfortable with any member calling anyone here a bottom-feeder. From what I have seen, all members are welcome and invited to participate in a manner of their choosing.

    Kaskar and RWH will have all the parts you need. Others have converted to hydraulic clutch style. If you don’t ford water than hydraulic clutch for the puller fan might be a good way to go.

    Replace the puller fan immediately. Seriously.

    Never replace the mechanical puller fan. It is the biggest disaster and mistake you can ever make. The electric fans do not create enough air flow and will never be able to make enough air flow with today’s technology. Be warned.

    Looks like Neihoff 3135. Make sure it’s not a bad regulator prior to placing that 400 amp monstrosity.

    Throw out the 400 amp or sell it to the people with six ton and LMTV. They have their own forums here on SteelSoldiers. Listen to RetiredWarHorses/RWH. You need to ground the individual lights. You need to open them up and find the contacts and wires clean them and check them. You need to...

    Few things. First... Welcome! nopics Pics of the alternator will answer tons of questions. Brakes, not breaks. 400amp is overkill and requires special brackets. What is in vehicle now? Have you tested it? My friend and fellow member Eric aka Hummer H1 routinely modifies these rigs to accept...

    6.5l Oil Pan RTV Help

    Something I learned from the application of RTV to the valve covers, apply the RTV on the engine side and not on the cover side. It may seem like splitting hairs, however when you apply on the engine side you’re guaranteed to get a complete seal with RTV where it is needed. When you add RTV to...

    Great Jack, but NOT light. Wear your back brace.
