FRC-10 and filter installed and working great. While the engine is idling, I can open the bleeder tee and there's a powerful stream of fuel that comes out. The old lift pump would barely trickle fuel out of the tee with the engine idling and just had a tiny stream of fuel with the engine off...
I actually put diesel in my brake pressure bleeder and pushed it through the system backwards from the t handle drain. It was slow but it worked. Pushed gunk out of my tank sock too. Truck ran great and had all power back until the sock got gunked up again. Time to drop the tank now and...
Sorry to resurrect this thread, but the coolant crossover quick disconnect - I'm not familiar with it. Does anyone have a picture?
One of my T's started leaking tonight and I want to replace them both with brass or copper, but if there's something else I need to replace at the same time, I will.
I'm in the midst of installing Leroy's Walbro FRC-10 pump and pre-filter setup. Everything is plumbed up in place and wired properly (I actually used a relay to give the pump plenty of amperage). I cranked the engine and it fired up, but shut off when it burned the fuel in the fuel filter...
I have this series of GlowShift gauges for boost and EGT, so for a fuel pressure gauge I kind of want to stick with the same gauges. They don't make a fuel pressure gauge that reads vacuum too, so should I get a normal fuel pressure gauge (0-30 psi) or get a boost/vac gauge and make that work...
It seems like it was sudden, but it could have been happening over time and I just didn't notice. It's my wife's vehicle and all she does it run around getting groceries and such. I drive it maybe once a week and we rarely cross a mountain unless we're on a trip. I did tow 3400 lbs in May and...
Replaced the exhaust system with a Diamond Eye yesterday with no big improvement.
The bike was on a hitch carrier, not a trailer. No extra wheels on the ground.
I'll see about getting a fuel/vac gauge put on there. The tune was going to be next, after I fix the low power issue. I've...
Figured it was about time to start a thread rather than plug up the new injectors thread.
1999 Suburban 1500 with 268k miles. 207k on this motor but I'd assume all of the bolt on parts were from the original motor. FSD relocated to the grille with a heat sink and the FSD was new with the...
I did fire it up yesterday after the first 4 were done.
Exhaust is now on. I went for a drive with the truck. I got a little power back, but I'm still not where I should be. Next step is to drop the tank and check the sock. I might go ahead and ditch the sock in lieu of an in-line filter...
I'm taking a break from the heat right now, but I'm almost done.
I pulled the inner fender which doesn't actually require removing the battery or the tray. I've done the inner fender before when I installed new rear AC lines and it's just a matter of a whole bunch of bolts that all come out...
Yeah, which is why I didn't bother starting on the passenger side today. I'll have more time tomorrow. I'll probably take the inner fender off to make more room to work on that side.
The Bosch injectors I got from Rock Auto are from India. Oh well, still better than the originals with over 200,000 miles on them.
I got the driver's side injectors and glow plugs replaced. No issues and it was fairly easy. Tomorrow I start on the passenger side and possibly change the...
I just ordered Bosch injectors from Rock Auto last night for $41 each. Duraterm glow plugs for just under $8 each. With an installation kit for the injectors from SS Diesel, I came in just under $450 for new injectors, glow plugs, and an installation kit shipped. I also have a Diamond Eye...
OK, am I missing something or am I just crazy. The Bosch part number as verified on a couple other forums, Rock Auto's website, and Summit Racing's website for my 1999 Suburban is 0432217276. They're $40 each from Summit Racing, $43 each from Rock Auto, and $30 each in quantities of 8 from...
Alright, I'm thinking it's time for new injectors on my Suburban since I have no idea when they were changed last, if ever. I'm at 265k miles right now and feel a little down on power and my lift pump is working well (new last year too). I already replaced filters and I get 12 psi boost with...
I didn't have time today to track down that ground and fix it, so I put the wire back from the relay directly to the battery ground to make it useable in the mean time.
Apparently when I took off the airbag and put it back on I did something incorrectly. The airbag light is on and I don't...
Any chance we can get the thread title to reflect that it now works in case someone searches this thread in the future, they know the solution is at the end?
IT WORKS!!
SUCCESS!
After finally confirming EXACTLY which pin was which at the relay, only then was I fully able to understand where the problem was. We had pin 85 and 86 confused most of the time. Pin 86 is actually my ground as confirmed by the black wire going to that socket in the...
