Glad to hear that! One thing I've been trying to do is use the least amount of throttle during cold start as possible. 2 things happen. 1) I get a lot of white smoke. I literally turn on a big fan in the garage to blow the smoke out while its settling down. 2) Im trying to keep the diesel...

I'm having some starting issues in the cold. Glow plug light comes on, cycles after 10 seconds and I see an amp drop on the meter. Problem is that it wont start cold unless I give it a little throttle. Then when it does fire up I get a massive amount of white smoke. Does this sound like glow...

Brilliant! Scott...

Cool radio mount! Is the screen for a backup camera? Did you use the tach sender on the back side of the engine as in HMMWV1's thread? Scott...

Picked up a Tach from Ebay. I have a CNC plasma so I'll cut out a nice box to mount it. Thinking the left side of the windshield is a nice place based on others installs. Hope to start work on it this weekend. Also bought a plug in block heater to help with the cold. Scott...

CAMO and Ioinu, thank you so much for your detailed help! Glow plugs and removal tool on order. I notice my gauge dips, not sure what the amps it dips are, but its about 1/8th of the gauge dip while the light is on. I'll check the ohms and cables as well. Thanks!! Scott...

Thanks, I've been pondering just ordering a complete set of Kascar glow plugs and replacing them all to see if that helps things. Cant hurt right? Is it safe to assume these work in a 6.5L? https://real4wd.com/store/Glow-Plug-Engine-Assy?orderdetailid=1098741 Scott...

I'm interested as well.

Thats what I thought. Any chance you can snap a picture of yours? Thanks! Scott...

That's why I was asking. It looks like the mirror is on the wrong side of the support bar. Scott...

Have posted a few questions and thought I should post the pics of my new HMMWV. Picked it up last weekend. Its a '93 with a 6.5L rebuilt by the Gov in 2008. Has 6800 miles since rebuild. I'm loving it. A few quirks to learn here and there, but this machine is a beast! Gotta figure out cold...

Does this look like its installed correctly? Thanks, Scott...

When I got my 998 the passenger side mirror was adjusted so you couldnt see out of it. I've not figured out exactly how to adjust it so you can see out of it. Seems like you have to look through the windshield to see it, but I cant get it adjusted so I can see. Any tips? Anyone have pictures of...

Finally got a chance to get a voltmeter on things. I had 24 volts on the fan wires so I was getting power. Just to check, I banged on the heater blower cover. Motor jumped to life :) I ordered a new motor from ebay. Cheap fix. Scott...

Thats an interesting idea! How do you flip the start box on and off? Just turn the key on and off? Scott...

That heater looks like its gonna work! It doesn't seem like my heater blower is bad. I went out the next day, started the beast, and the heater worked. Turned it off and it quit again. Seems like it works the first time you start it each day, but quits after that. Scott...

Was using my heater today up until lunch. Was working great. Then came back from lunch and the heater blower no longer works on either Low or High. Anyone had this happen out of the blue? Blower didn't seem to be making any odd noises or anything. Thanks! Scott...
