Hmmmm....would appear as tho somebody else was texting some floozy when he shoulda been concentrating on the context, eh - put your cellphone on silent running, vibrate off, then reread the part about the one-way valves in each port in the distributor head, and the indicated...

Different oem's spec different bimetal and strip width and length so it depends on the clutch - fortunately, AC Delco designs have plenty of extra length so I tuned as required, which was usually for a really big engine in a really small chassis with little real estate for a radiator to match -...

Good input - been doing that trick since the viscous clutches began showing up back in the '60's - I'm firmly not a believer in electric primary fans, butcept in auxiliary configuration as a helper - which I got some uv on my truck...............

Wiring and grounds, wiring shorted as motor shifted under quick deceleration

The HPCA solenoid check valve is stuck, or the fitting is stopped up - pull the cover and check it out - install from the front, sliding it into place beneath the linkage

No prob, blowback fairly well described it, but making assumptions can get you some pretty wild answers - now we're on the same page Pop the hood, check the area between the ac condenser and the radiator for bugs'n'leaves'n'stuff, causes overheating - constant buildup of stuff in that area is...

Hmmmm.....may be some truth in that, but TD lives in Gautier Ms, 450yds from the ocean, works all along the Gulf Coast, and I don't remember helping him install a F**d start solenoid on his 6.5 when he was here However, if you're gonna doit, go get some F**d starter cables'n'stuff, do it right...

What're you talking "blowback"? The oil "all over the turbo" or a lot of oily fumes coming outta the oil filler tube when you remove the cap, which is "blowby"? Or both? Losing sump oil indicates bad oil leak, as from turbo oil supply or turbo bearings Second case, pull the tuna can, wipe...

Dude, there's millions of these trucks on the road all over the world that start dozens of times every day without F**d start solenoids (one uv 'em even sits in my driveway!) - get up outta yer computer chair, walk outside, get up under yer truck, have a look-see at the starter wiring - nothing...

Low voltage and it will just click, not hang on - best bet is to get up under there and look - I'm having a little difficulty in seeing it from where I sit - knowwhuttimean, jellybean?............. If it's manual trans, make sure it is in NEUTRAL and the brakes are locked when you crawl under

Pull the cover off the IP - careful with the gasket - go to the 6.2 forum for in-depth info

Pull the cover, see if the solenoids'n'pieces are still in one piece..................

Not battery(s), but have them checked - starter solenoid sticking or shorting wiring at the......................
