what is the best way to fix these holes. I want to use some sort of epoxy and slap some sheet metal over it

Could you shoe horn in a 6.5?

got a Leroy PMD already

Well it finally happened, I went to restart the 1500 after letting it sit for a half hour and got a no start/stumble . Luckily there was a water source near by. I slow poured a gallon of water on the IP and it fired right up and I was down the road. question is how long can I continue...

If it is an EGR manifold you might want to take this opportunity to change it over to a non egr one. got a a bit of improvement in my 95 GMC

keep it and get a used dodge mini van with just the basic ac and what ever, you'll kick yourself in the ass if you part with at any price.

Would I gain anything by bumping that up a little? I opened up the exhaust and intake as well as putting a #9 resistor in the PMD.

just got a Pop tester, further on down the road it may be necessary to change the injectors. I figure cleaning up some junkyard spares and replacing the nozzles would be a more cost effective route. I believe there is a difference in pop pressure between the NA motor and the turbocharged one

I actually got ahold of the mechanic at VDOT. He said unless it's broke they didn't change the injectors. what the did do was change the oil every 5k and poured in a bottle of injector cleaner. hell, if everybody with a Diesel vehicle did that we'd see a lot more old oil burners on the road.

My 1500 NA now has 170K on it, I feed the beast roughly 20-30% home brew bioD. Gets 17-20MPG, easy starts and no smoke after start. Leave it alone or change out the injectors and glow plugs before winter?

I got a surplus of WVO, Richmond Va area, still in cubes, of various quality, some brown, some opaque. cheap

Anode Car:hihi:

It was a combination of things, clogged fuel filters, dirty injectors/loose injector and a crack in the turbo wastegate vacuum line. the smoking on acceleration is nearly gone and I'm planning on changing the injectors. the tranny adjustments are still needed. It's quite drivable at the...

Mine is still in the 17-20 range on a B20 . soon as the weather warms up we're going to B99, the 10% decrease in mileage is worth it when I'm only spending 1.50 a gallon for fuel

:thumbsup:I got the GMC 1500 running like it was new, everything works and I'm getting the rated MPG plus a little bump in performance. The egr delete that included a new manifold from Leroy and Leroy PMD mod with the No. 9 resister along with new shocks, tires, brakes and paint job I...

no funny noises but rough idle and smelly exhaust. black smoke when you accelerate and hesitates when you stomp the throttle. I think I got a dribbledick fuel injector

2.5L 5 cylinder.

Nail? The previous owner apparently didn't change any of the fuel filters. both the pre and main were full of black sooty stuff. had a rough idle, now not as rough.

here it is

still got the 95
