    96 timing issue possibly

    iirc there are three bolts or two bolts and one stud holding the bracket in place. the stud is on the WP, should be a bolt on the exhaust manifold or near it, and one more up top under the alternator that holds the PS bracket to the block.

    96 timing issue possibly

    I can't remember if I had to pull the PS pump off when I installed the one on the 93. it uses that sensor for the TCI TCU. I bet you can get away with pulling the two bolts, one on the water pump and the other on the exhaust so the PS will swing out slightly.

    96 timing issue possibly

    Looks like the CPS is bad or has a bad wire. lots of times oil gets on the wires and starts to break down the insulation causing issues . cheap insurance is to replace that sensor, but iirc you will have to do a TDC offset relearn once it's replaced.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    You sure what you have your hand on isn't the power steering lines? the oil cooler lines should run along side the block where the pan meets the block up to the front where the harmonic balancer is then transition to rubber under the fan shroud to the oil cooler that sits in front of the...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Those are aluminum lines that have 45deg flare fittings. shouldn't need to worry about that end. what do they look like on the other end up by the radiator? on the newer rigs, GM used a type of quick connect that are known to blow out or leak at the engine block. on the radiator side, the...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    looking at your video, I think you have one or maybe two cylinders that isn't warming up as well on the GP's could be a loose connection or a GP is failing. it doesn't hurt to pull the, mark which cylinder each are from, and bench test them with a set of jumper cables. count in seconds...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    are you still running the factory glow plug harness? inspect the connectors at each GP making sure they are securely attached and not loose. make sure the wires are not up against the manifold or exhaust pipe.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Start with the glow plugs. when was the last time you replaced them? what GP's did you use then? the best are the AC Delco 60g's they are self regulating so they won't swell up and break off destroying the engine. think if the GP's and injectors like spark plugs on a gasser. they need...

    6.5TD motorhome starting problem

    Here are the specs for the EP309 and the EP158. if you go with a factory style lift pump, go with the EP158. it's the better of the factory pumps. Take note of the max and min pressure and flow rates. TBH our rigs need something that will flow at least 50gph for it to keep up with the fuel...

    My 93 having a mysterious tapping or knocking under acceleration that comes and goes

    Iirc I had seen one on eBay once before but I didn’t remember what it was called. Rockbillyrat showed pic where it goes and what it looks like I recall it’s should be somewhere around 200psi but don’t quote me on that. Maybe I should look around for one and research further on that It...

    6.5TD motorhome starting problem

    https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=4580178&cc=0&pt=6256&jsn=3 is this the one? F2310? look at the specs. @Will L. IDK about this. that looks like a diaphragm type pump to me, it says it's a vane pump.

    6.5TD motorhome starting problem

    I looked up this pump and it's a replacement for the AC Delco EP309 if someone can lookup what the rated pressure and flow rate is for the EP309 we can get an idea on what this pump is supposed to be capable of. Now with that said, purchasing it from RA, good luck with warranty exchange...

    My 93 having a mysterious tapping or knocking under acceleration that comes and goes

    The high idle solenoid does work, but you have to tap the pedal for it to keep the throttle held up. The cold advance solenoid does click with the engine off. I cannot tell on the fuel flow with the clear hose when running since there is absolutely no air bubbles, so I can't see a change in...

    96 timing issue possibly

    I would start by cleaning your grounds for the PCM. look at the passenger side head on the intake near the trans dipstick tube. there should be three wires on eyelets bolted to a stud. make sure those have a good connection. also check the ground strap from the frame to the block along...

    I saw that but didn't know if it was a new video or an older one just in his album from before.

    My 93 having a mysterious tapping or knocking under acceleration that comes and goes

    Thinking about it more, it might not even have anything to do with the transfer pump pressure and everything to do with the advance piston. I know it's happened in the past randomly getting a load of clatter, but it hasn't done that in quite a while. not sure if that is due to me using the...
