    Injector Nozzles

    Do you think the lube will help them from getting stuck until they break in? Also I lap mine like this guy did on his VW, he used oil, 1000 grit then 2000 grit on glass, what do you think about using lapping compound between the upper body and middle washer? You'd just have to be careful and...

    Injector Nozzles

    I lapped two of mine yesterday (the leaky ones on the easy side) didn't do the nozzle top but was thinking about it. After installing them one still leaked so I pulled it, re-lapped it and put blue locktite on the threads. Then driving in town probably 10 min into the trip one started tapping...

    Well the tapping went away after getting the boost past 5psi twice, weird though. Now I just have to disassemble the leaky ones and lap them

    Injector Nozzles

    I was flipped the right way, It has since gone away. When I drove it this morning after I brought the boost past 5 psi it hasn't come back since.

    Injector Nozzles

    I was reading up about rebuilding injectors last night and that is the only thing I forgot to do so I'll be fixing that. How long did it take the tap to go away? It sure is damn loud but only when the engine is revved not when held at a constant temp. I also know which injector it is. I was...

    Injector tap!!

    I just put my Bosch Marie nozzles in, popping at 2650-2700 psi. I swear the turbo whistles more now maybe because the engine tone is different. Anyhow I know which injector is tapping, it was torqued correctly to 50 ft lbs. I don't notice the tap until the engine was warmed up and after my...

    Injector Nozzles

    I just put my Bosch Marie nozzles in, popping at 2650-2700 psi. I swear the turbo whistles more now maybe because the engine tone is different. Anyhow can someone share their secrets on how to fix the leaky injector at the body? I have tried one awhile ago and didn't have luck (with my only...

    My Nv4500 swap underway with a clutch problem

    That was the exact problem, I had read something about bleeding problems a few hours ago and they said make sure the push rod is adjusted right and I had remembered I put it together to allow a "long" push so I knew it was the problem. I went back out adjusted the rod down and WA-LA fresh fluid...

    My Nv4500 swap underway with a clutch problem

    I know this one has some cob webs on it but instead of starting a new one I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on a problem I have been having along with my friends truck also. When the clutch warms up (after driving 30+ min) and you depress, go to shift into reverse it doesn't seem...

    Injector Nozzles

    thanks Dave, I figured some of that junk was in the holes also. I was kinda confused when I saw it as it would make more sense to just put them in a plastic cap. Cummins I am sorry to hear that but it is kinda funny, thats how my friends truck was but not as bad when he had one broken ring. I...

    filtering oil to burn

    but they are for water? and the one says not for use with fuel or flammable liquids so it might eat away at the seals and what not. What do you think?

    filtering oil to burn

    I cant decide if I should use the water bowl with a screen which will be a 10-30 micron or do the bowl with the water guard 10 micron as I already have a 6 micron and they are all large filters I think the 6 micron was referred to as a water separator. I just need some sort of fine screen to put...

    filtering oil to burn

    Did you not know where the ATF was coming from? I'll mostly be running oil from my truck and my friends vehicles (the ones with bran new cars) lol. anyways I was thinking about getting a 10-30 micron filter with the water bowl or I could do a 10 micron with a water bowl but it has a "water...
