    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Funniest thing I heard of and used was a couple raw eggs. They cruise around the system and get poached when it gets sprayed out the leak. It doesn’t plug anything up and cleans out easily. I never heard of it till I had a bad water pump seal on a trip through death valley. Worked like a...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    That would be cool as valve covers. I hate to see the price of having some made.

    Hey- awesome they could find it for you! Back years ago when i wrenched on them for my grub- that type of info was rare. I wasn’t in a freightliner dealership but the fleet I ran was a preferred customer for them buying several rigs yearly.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    No to the one in your picture. That is a piece of junk from a hummer/hmmwv. No block off. That belongs in the scrap bin. I haven’t destroyed mine just so I can teach from it. I should drill it full of holes to ensure no one ever uses it once I’m dead. I had the wrong part number for...

    This site is more for pickups. But I and others put food on the table wrenching or driving big boy trucks. I doubt you’ll find an answer to the fan question. First you need to specify a fan. What engine, then which fan because an FL 60 is mighty different than say a new Cascadia. Then...

    ‘98 6.5 TD stalled while driving and current no start

    Absolutely bad fuel line is a super common issue. When you buy the new fuel line: SAE30R9 Modern diesel has ethanol/ methanol in it. Our old lines do not withstand it and deteriorate from the inside out. So from outside it can look and feel perfect. Having this grade line is not an option but...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Gonna disagree about the dual vs single from experience. Having the block off thermostat is huge! But hummers use a single thermostat that is not a block off style and i tried it vs a dual stat and the single helped there also but very minimal. Once I he block off is in place - huge...

    cs130 to cs144

    I don’t know of any. I can’t remember seeing a cs144 on a 5.7. They were on 6.0 engines in certain applications, not all. How many of the brackets need to be changed for it all to work would be the next question. They are used on the diesels but bracket definitely do not cross over. Nor...

    2013 Escalade ESV w/ SLP TVS2300

    Why do I feel like there is a 6-71 for sale in SC somewhere? 🤣 Sucks to need that much effort for a simple sensor.

    cs130 to cs144

    It does not fit. Upper and lower brackets need altering. I used to recommend making the change but with improvements to alternators of last 15 years- I don’t. Unless you are getting a super high amp cs144 and have major electrical draw and at least one extra battery- you are better off getting...

    @Big T you are forever using that rig like a truck w/ a shell on it. I’m surprised you don’t leave the back seat out most the time.

    GMT-800 LLY Towing Speed Record

    Yeah- I think the i95 & i15 where they cross through Vegas is where most of the qualifying drives are done. Posted speeds are 65. Traffic runs 75 in the slow lane. And I don’t think more than 1 pickup/trl combo per month keeps it under 70… I mean, unless I’m late for work- then everyone is...

    Same thing occurs from over filling the tank on many vehicles. When the pump handle auto shuts off- never “top off” or run up to next dollar. 💵 d

    ‘98 6.5 TD stalled while driving and current no start

    Oh- posting videos of testing, seeing fuel flow through clear line is best option. People use YouTube, bitchute, etc then post a link here. Or take 30 second video and text it to one or some of us. We can pm phone numbers- don’t ever put that in open forum.

    ‘98 6.5 TD stalled while driving and current no start

    Ok. First two codes tell us the ip (injection pump) is not happy with fuel situation inside, but when there is not proper fuel flow of good clean & air free fuel flowing through it- that can happen. So we set those aside for the moment because of the third code and more importantly your...

    As Pres Ronnie said: I’m from the federal government and I’m here to help you. 😂 Yeah, I’m thinking Bot or spammer getting up the posts before allowed to post things for sale… that’s how most forums are. Idk if this one is.

    Glad you caught the error before trash man got there. I made it a habit- 100% of old parts sit a week before getting scrapped.
