how far back did the bushing offset the probe? IMO, as long as the tip is close to the middle of the pipe. where did you install the probe? pre-turbo or post turbo?
Just goes to show what I know. ):h
Never even knew there was a step up for the Fram. And $8? I know there is exchange and all, but I am paying like $15 for a lower line filter. :mad2:
packratt, at least you are making headway. i did the same thing, but didn't remove everything. i got the...
yup, i'm with you on that.
mostly cause i can't afford a newer diesel, but i really like being able to fix my own stuff.
we have a 2006 F___ 6.0 engine at the farm that we dissasembled for kicks. Had the longest dang glowplugs i ever saw. :eek: but man, did they heat fast
nice looking setup. but get rid of that fram man. :nono: we cut a bunch open and fram had the cheapest guts of any.
packratt, hoping the rest of the install goes easy.
X2 on the IP. If not that, then yea, I would go with swapping a good injector out one by one until you find it.
I know it was asked already, but what does the smoke smell like?
What code was there? Any at all? Or is the tag gone?
Is it 4X4?
I believe codes for these trucks (most common ones) are
GT5-4.10
GT4-3.73
GU6-3.42
GU5-3.23
If you want to check your gear ratio, pop the diff cover off and rotate the pinion until you come across a number combination. 11/41 will be a 3.73, etc. You take the bigger number and divide it by the smaller number to find out the ratio. The bigger number is your ring spline count and the...
1- Air getting into the fuel lines somewhere.
2- Injectors getting flaky. How many miles on them?
I doubt your turbo or balancer has anything to do with it. It's not giving up any codes?
unless it is somehow shorting out, i don't think it would be related. did you drive the truck before with it unplugged?
45PSI @1,500 RPMS ??!! :thumbsup:):h:eek: and you are turning 5,000 out of a 6.5? and the turbo is off a ship? Wow. I would call you crazy :slap: but i like pushing things...
If anyone get's any more info on the gear drive, please post it up. I was planning on a set for the build, but now I want to make sure they won't have a negative effect on anything.
