    Pump shut down after battery short

    At this point I think it needs to be located. Also moisture could be cracked heads or bad head gaskets. Impossible to know. But wise money would find that pin and remove the heads.

Weak battery's are the root of all evil that happens to the CUCV starting and glow plug system. No need for modifications to the...

    Pump shut down after battery short

    Probably 35 years of use. These aren't late models vehicles anymore. They are antiques. When I started buying them they were 9 years old. That is comparable to a 2012 Chevrolet truck today. Good Luck.
