Don't pour diesel in the intake or anything else, you can hydrolock you engine! If you need to crank a diesel without ether use a rag with gas on it and leave the air filter in place and put the rag over the air filter intake.

Cucvrus is right that starter nose looks cracked. Also check to see if the pink wire going to the IP has 12v while the key is in the run position.

A IBIS TEC medium towbar is more than strong enough to handle a CUCV, it's rated at 44,000 lbs, they had a few problems early on with the light towbar not the medium, there is one story on here about a failed medium pulling a five ton. I can show and tell of many hunter medium towbars that...
Might I suggest a IBIS TEC medium towbar or the light hunter towbar. They weigh about the same both are plenty strong for a CUCV and the only real difference is storage size the IBIS TEC is shorter but twice the diameter of the hunter lightweight.

Okay I know you are not going to want to hear this but if I were you and this little plug rusted through I would pull them all and replace them as your daughter might not be as lucky to have one go bad in or near home and there is a trick to keep them from rusting out again coat the back of the...
Does the 6.2 have freeze plugs in the bellhousing area? I don't think so but maybe, will look when I get back to the house

Might I add a little bit to this discussion about battery cable size, bigger is almost always better I am putting battery cables from 5 tons in my 1010 and have used bigger cables on most every automobile I have had for the last 20 years. For 12v to do the same work as 24v you need twice the...
Jpg I think it is funny I was thinking about this before I looked at SS this morning. I think your upper voltage is spot on at 28.7 unless I missed something. Now on the lower voltage there might be some interference from the 24v alt with the 12v alt you might want to remove the 24v alt belt...
Also I have a Lincoln cracker jack, a Miller 220v mig, and a Miller Bobcat gasoline powered welders and will grab my ready-welder 60% of the time to do most welding jobs.
Now back to the young ladies 1010, jpg are you going to add a Ready-welder to her truck?
If you put them side by side it becomes a no brainer the little box machines are good for thin body parts but the ready-welder can weld up 1/2 no problem. Also you would need a generator to run one away from home and they would take up much more room, I believe dollar for dollar you can't get...
The ready-welder is a battery powered spool gun that will run off of car batteries setup between 12-48 volts and can also be used as a spool gun on most big DC welders. It will weld a longer continuous bead than you can run it has a 100% duty cycle, meaning that it doesn't get hot and have to...
Yeah a lot of guys think I am nuts when I tell them it can out weld a big gas driven machine but it will as long as you have a set of good hot batteries and they last longer than you will at one setup.
