The hydraulic line controls the fan clutch. For deep water fording, you can go pedal down once and the fan will stop so it doesn't destroy the fan when it goes unfettered water. For the sake of non destruction, pop the back of the geared hubs off and make sure the spanner nut and star washer that hold the lower hub shift in aren't backing off. I've personally been in a few that did and it causes the wheel to exit the vehicle

I think it's important to note that the fan clutch is hydraulically released, spring applied. If it's unplugged, the spring applies the fan clutch, so the fan spins water pump RPM all the time. If the engine is cool enough, power steering pump pressure will release the clutch. The fan still spins a little bit because the power steering fluid (probably ATF) is still being churned inside the clutch housing. The temp sensor, fan clutch control module, solenoid, and fan clutch itself are probably four of the most reliable components on a HMMWV.

Important to note there's a plug you can unplug and it serves the exact same purpose. Most humvee mechanics know, when you unplug that connector the fan clutch will remain engaged, and the fan will spin continuously at it's max rpm.

Glad you enjoyed it!

The cooling system is not that difficult on a HMMWV. The radiator overflow ensure the radiator is filled properly by feeding to the bottom of the radiator. the two hoses from the radiator and top of thermostat housing is for overflow. As long as the engine oil is not milky and the exhaust is not smoking white fill the overflow bottle to recommended fluid level. If overfilled the overflow bottle will then overflow out the hose onto the ground. Use a conventional radiator bypass cap that will allow pressure to release past 15lb pressure. If overfilled the fluid will spit out and steam, appearing to be "overheating" 220F is when the radiator fan clutch will activate and keep the engine below 220F. IF the temperature goes past 220F even with the radiator fan clutch active, that's is when your HMMWV is overheating. This could be the thermostat or waterpump issue. You disconnected the hydraulic fan clutch line which forced the fan to be on all time. keeping the engine colder than 160F may cause damage to bearings due to being too cold. 1. reconnect the hydraulic line 2. refill to proper levels with IAT coolant 50/50 3.make sure you're actually overheating and not thinking you're overheating due to high temperatures. If you're reaching 220F+ with fan clutch on and is going towards 240F shut down engine and replace thermostat and waterpump. There's a lot of current and prior service military mechanics with years/decades of experience. reach out and get some help.

My thought went somewhere similar when they were spewing pressure at 205. The system should hold everything in until well over boiling. If it isn't, I would have gone radiator cap first. And don't overfill.

I used to work on these in the army. There is a little electrical box called the time delay module. It controls the fan speed. We always unplugged our trucks cause they always went bad and would default to the lowest fan speed. It's located right next to the windshield washer pump, 4 wire plug. Might help your overheating issue if it gets unplugged.

The funny thing is, that I think the reason people say these humvees are usually slow is because of their usual top speeds they have when they are weighted down by their armor plating they *typically* have. But since yours is of course, a surplus one that the Military no longer wanted, it isn't weighted down by it's armor it had, and therefore can go faster than it's counterparts that are still in use.

@@BlueTeam-John-Fred-Linda-Kelly Well... I say armoring even though these things never really had much to begin with when it was used in the military. (they aren't really well known for being bullet proof persay in regards of actually stopping the types of calibers you'd find across the world that have been used in wars that these sorts of humvees have been in.) In essence, it's more of a case of they did have armoring when the military used them but... It wasn't really much, and even still it would've had some weight to it. Plus this humvee isn't... exactly a new one either. Nor would they really use aluminum in a military humvee anyways for the main bulk of the body and chassis, even though yes the doors and roof are fabric rather than steel, but then again those are pieces that can easily be replaced if need be. Overall, it did at one point have armoring, but since it is a surplus vehicle that was auctioned off, it's armoring, as Ethan and the others stated in the first video on these humvees, was removed before they got ahold of the humvees.

i know this may be later than when you guys made it back but the hose line you disconnected is for the fan clutch. there is a black box on the driver side that you can disconnect instead by the washer fluid that will allow the fan to spin freely without blowing up the radiator. Its called the time delay, it connects to a thermostatic switch directly behind the thermostat that tells it to allow the fan to spin freely.

Around 220F to 240f the fan clutch will engage and its very loud and will cool down fast and turn off. These run very hot at high pressure. I replaced the overflow tank to a alum. type. Plastic ones will fail in time. Also looks like the thermostat is bad or your fan clutch is not working right. Fan Clutch line connects to the power steering lines and controlled by the cylinder valve device next to the washer fluid tank. Its orange or silver looking .

One of the best ways to depict steep hills on camera that i have found is to have the camera in the car and the car on the steepest part of the incline and then have a person stand up straight within view of the camera outside the window but orient the camera so the person outside the car is vertical in the camera frame. The angle that you see of the window frame against the person standing shows how steep the hill is. That is to say you can look at the window angle to see what angle the incline is.

I love seeing your channel unfold in our little area, very refreshing.

The reason you're overheating at highway speeds is because the shape of the Humvee makes it so that at 55mph+ it creates a pressure bubble over the hood which keeps air from flowing through the radiators. If you keep it 55mph or lower (what it was designed for) you will never overheat. We H1 owners have the same problems. Your fan clutch should have kicked in to try and keep it cool. Unfortunately you probably destroyed that block when you overheated it.

I drove that thing for years with gorilla tape holding the window in the frame. It also had two Volkswagen windows JB welded onto plywood that replaced the rear window. This series has been very reminiscent of my experience as a teenager. lol

You stuck with the mission to drive a Humvee to Sandpoint and turned the experience into a great video and an impressive victory. Way to go!

It made my day happier, it reminded me of the time I traveled from Belo Horizonte in Minas Gerais to Goiana in the state of Goias in a gol cht 1 liter engine but "tuned", so let's say it was the original 1.0 engine, it boiled and the head gasket blew and he had the pistons and liners exchanged for pistons and liners from version 1.6, this was the week before the trip, we left at 3 in the morning, and right away, we lost most of the electrical system, everything turned off, and The windows were half closed, so we got rain, cold wind, some rain that appears out of nowhere and then disappears in the same way, the GPS threw us in the wrong direction, 400 km in the wrong direction, my father was the only driver of the 4 of us, they were 14 hours on the road we stopped 4 times to refuel, but the engine was weak (it still is in fact), we couldn't go over 100 otherwise the car felt like it would fall apart because it was shaking so much, the suspension was all bad, and we did this modification in the engine but we didn't change the rest of the car, so if it idled it would turn off, like put in neutral engine die every time,even when it was hot we arrived in the city of goiana at 8pm or so, I still have this car today, it's very slow, but it continues to serve me wait I forgot some details this engine cht It's an acronym that compond high turbulence and is made by Ford and was bought by VW, you'll find it the Ford Escort, I'm almost sure, it's 50 hp 10 kg of torque The torque is straight and the torque is basically constant from 1200 rpm On the best day, it does 14 km\L on gasoline or 12km\L IF it's the ethanol model and on the trip we filled up 4 times because the fuel tank leak if was half full

Thanks man!

This was really good blog about your buying and repairing these Humvees. The U.S. abandoned hundreds of them when they hurriedly evacuated Camp Bastion in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Humvees are totally underrated! I have a 1995 GMV (the special forces modified version with the Rod Hall suspension) and I find it perfect, just the way it is. The power is adequate for what it needs to do and there is no reason to change it!

This series is so cool 😎 keep it up guys!!

Hello from sweden! I love your videos. I been following u guys since 2021 😍 keep up the awesome things that u do. Much love

Thank you for not camping in the passing lane, hopefully some of the Californians watching this can learn something.

Excellent video this week I was thinking one of you guys might have fallen ill and when I'm able to edit the film this week but better late than never and I'm gonna enjoy this video very much you guys have an excellent weekend and an excellent Memorial Day
