Finding the Real Cause of This HMMWV’s Hot-Stall
This 1992 HMMWV 6.2L diesel ran great cold but would begin sputtering and eventually shut off once it warmed up.

Further inspection revealed rust, contamination, and black debris inside the injection pump. Fuel samples from the tank and pump also confirmed significant fuel contamination.
