Thank you, I hope it can be resolved with a new flex plate. If its a crank balance issue I am not sure I'm up for taking the engine out again.. Fingers crossed it can be resolved with a flex plate? It looks warped to me but not sure what is tolerable.

Vid of Flex plate while cranking engine. It looks warped to me but I don't know what tolerance it can handle. At the present time with how it vibrates I'd say none :banghead:

Very interesting.. Not impressed with Scat at the moment. Fingers crossed its a bent flex plate?

I've ran it with the belt off, no improvement. Hopefully its the flex wheel out of round. I'm going to get video of it this evening cranking over. Fingers crossed its that

Thanks everyone for the input, I'll film the flex plate with the engine cranking and see what that looks like. Surprised that a supposedly better crank would need to be re-balanced and matched. Kind of disappointing if that ends up being the issue. I've built a motor for my sandrail that would...

Hello, I am experiencing some pretty intense vibrations on the 6.5. Between 1800 and 2100 it vibrates terribly, rattles the dash and the truck. Above 2100 and below 1800 it seems normal. I've had the truck several years and understand the 6.5 has vibrations but the old tired one seemed smooth...

You're welcome. glad to provide some help where I can. Thank you to everyone on the forum for your help and input. It gave me the information I needed to narrow down the issue. I'm glad there are shops that can still repair them and KNOW what they are doing.. Had I known this a lot of time and...

Long overdue update on the injection pump... SS Diesel never responded to my warranty claims. Ended up finding an authorized Stanadyne repair shop in Ogden (Baker's Diesel) and learned that the issues with the pump were what I had determined by research and testing. The small advance advance...

Multiple times, have all of the documents and processes nearly memorized too unfortunately

Still waiting for SS Diesel to respond. I did get an initial automated reply and its been several days since that with nothing. I sent an email this evening asking for a response. Not feeling too positive about it. I've re-adjusted and re-set time and reset TDC offset commands several times with...

Thanks, I do not understand if I am needing to rotate towards passenger more or driver side. I am thinking more towards the driver side? With the desired so high what could cause that? Most of the docs I've read typically mention 8 deg not the values I'm reading. Probably calling SS Diesel...

Thanks for the replies, the pump was purchased for SS Diesel. I will try turning the IP towards the passenger again but when I have its even worse than at center. Thanks for the documentation, I did have the document on the DTC0p216 and this is how I verified the wiring from ECM to stepper. The...

Hello, I am trying to resolve a problem with my injection pump on my 6.5. The engine is brand new (rebuilt) and so is the injection pump. I cannot get the truck to start easily. It has lots of white and grey smoke have to crank it a lot. I am getting the injection pump timing error P0216. I have...
