So it's time for an update to this thread. It turned out the IP was seized on the takeout 6.2 that I hauled from Texas. Ordered a rebuilt pump from Oregon Fuel Injection and install went smooth. Truck is now running down the road again. Have a few issues that need to be addressed but I can do...

Update on my electrical issues. As it turns out when the short occured due to the mis-wiring of the alternators, both alternators fried themselves and tested bad. Bought a few rebuild kits from a SS member and now have correct voltage and no battery drain down. Proceeded to fire up the truck and...

Update Bought a new group 31 battery for the front battery tray, making 2 new batteries now installed. Attempted to prime the truck and found a fuel leak Leak was due to improper size fuel line from filter assembly to injection pump Ordered correct NPT to hose barb fitting Waited a week to get...

Well I stopped by to work on my M1008 this afternoon and installed a ground strap from the engine to the cab at the rear of the passenger side cylinder head. Went to the cab to turn the key and begin some voltage checks and got no lights in the dash, no starter engagement...checked voltage at...

I installed an inline filter and spliced into the factory steel lines by cutting them to fit the new hose route. The individual splices are between 12"-18" at most, hopefully I will avoid any other problems. I did a quick bypass of the IGN circuit/fuel pump relay and the pump worked fine. I may...

Did some testing today, I only have 10.4V coming through the IGN circuit single spade taps...and a new 20amp fuse popped again after double checking my fuel pump relay wiring. Kinda curious why a low voltage input to a relay would pop the IGN fuse. I decided to test the fuel pump isolated away...

I blew the oil cooler o-rings on my stock M1008 and bought another 6.2 takeout motor from a CUCV out of Ft. Worth, TX. While doing the motor swap I made some modifications to the stock fuel systems. I added an electric Carter rotary fuel pump and deleted the mechanical pump on the block as well...
