    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Good morning commander I have a M1009 CUCV. I installed a toggle switch to by pass the starter card and I keep two extra alternators. Its the solenoids in the alternator that im concerned with but easier to install a new alternator than change out the solenoids in a pinch. I plan on picking...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    ZRacer, its been about 18 months or so since last discussed EMPs. The Japanese nuke disaster reminede me of your essay regarding the spent fuel ponds burning up which seemed to be the case. Since last, we have been experiencing quite an upsurge in solar flares and CMEs. Have read numerous...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    I am aware of the conflicting information as well ... and want to know definitively too but i really don't think anyone really knows for sure. In this thread there are procedures for modifying your M1009 to make it more EMP resistant than it already is. It's pretty simple and inexpensive. I...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Thanks Z, Appreciate the reply. I've been aware/researching (reading other peoples research) the potential/greater probability for EMP either solar or HEMP for awhile and have time to do some simple planning. Warning is the biggest advantage anyone could have. My family has a cabin north by...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    ZRacer, I just read your article on survivalblog.com. Excellent work and thank you... great info. I checked out my location relative to Beaver Valley 1 and 2. Yeah, big bummer. I am exactly 57 miles nautical miles N by NE and I'm not too comfortable with that. I hate the news but glad you...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Hello SeaBee, good info on Y2K; I didn't know that... thanks. I am not interested in a debate or an argument but you need to begin researching some of the information coming out of NASA regarding what they are calling "Fluff". I know it sounds funny but they, NASA, appear to be very concerned...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Sid, thanks for the info. I knew there was proof of the effects of EMP blast but not aware of what was experienced in Hawaii. The effects of EMP were also evident in what has become known as the Carrington Event, 1890 thereabouts.

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Thanks... more doom on top of doom. It seems to me Skynet a metaphor for the UN NWO ... just a thought. Once control is given over, wars are launched to distract the sheeple and cull the heard. We always seem to have wars in times of economic crisis.

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Yup, all speculation at this point. Reasonable people can agree to disagree. The only proof of the effects of EMP are in the lab and going back to the Carrington Event of the late 1800s. But whether or not it happens is all speculation, Agreed. Further, I'm not here to engage in the debate...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Hey PaPa Bear, sorry to be the bearer of bad news (pun intended). You mean you didn't get any of the Bush/Obama bail-out money? Yeah, sooner is correct, IMO. The good news is IF Sun fires up with one of these massive CME/EMPs, the US financial system will burn down with the grid and we'd all...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Appreciate the information Blood. Research information on the "Carrington Event". I believe this took place in the 1880s (1889?) . It was caused by a large CME that released a powerful EMP that fried all the telegraph wires ... they literally caught on fire and burned down. Any info you can...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Chief_919 Appreciate the information, thanks. With regards to swapping out my glow plug system to a manual switch, can you be more specific. What i need to know is what kind of switch and where I might find this equipment. Also, are there printed instructions for such a procedure? Can you...

    EMP Ready M1009 question

    Thanks for your reply. I am not concerned about a nuke attack, I am concerned about the sun. I would definitely get out of Houston . There is quite a bit of information available about this solar cycle and according to research as well as NASA, they're concerned. Just want to take a few...
