That's the way I saw it. I have also been told that there is not enough gain in the precups to bother with changing the heads. will the injectors work? I guess I will have to pull a injector out of the 6.2 this weekend. I had not heard of the pan issues I assumed the 6.2 one would work although...
I read this thread because I have a 83 sub sitting in my driveway that has my donor 6.2 in it for my 95. I am more confused now then I was when I read this. I was under the impression that I just had to change intake, exhaust manifolds and the front end components including the cam drive. Then t...
FYI. I am following up because I get frustrated with all the post with no follow up when I am searching.
I drove the truck to town to get the pulley but it made a bit more noise after having the belt off and back on. That or I was just that worried.:queasy: I pulled it apart Sunday morning...
Do I have to pull the harmonic damper to change the pulley? I really shouldn't be spending any money right now with the job issues so I will probably have to stick to the pulley unless the damper is clearly bad. How do I best check the damper?
$62.19 and the part number is Dorman 594-037. You may not be able to get it for that price I believe that is equal to employee price as the owner of the store is my brother in laws life long best friend. it is listed as a harmonic damper pulley not a crank pulley.
I would guess that is the cdr also but I have a damaged piston and have lots of blowby coming out of my dip stick all the time and it hasn't hurt anything accept my pocket book buying oil. I don't think that a bad cdr valve can physically hurt the engine it will just use a bit more oil and have...
I have a loud diesel type noise that showed up about two weeks ago. It only happens at low idle and it sounds like a really loud diesel. It is loud enough that I have to shut the truck off at drive up windows. I has only changed slightly in the two weeks it started to change slightly if I turn...
Well I did a search or two on Lift pump test and OPS on the other site. I found some really helpful info as usual. First I found out that because my truck is a 1995 I can run my LP just by putting the shifter in any location besides park and neutral and try and start it. because the starter...
I added Power Service 911 yesterday after it stalled on the hwy then i filled up with no 1 and added Power Service anti gel just for good measure. I haven't drained the water out of the filter lately thou so that could be it. I will see soon I am going out there to check on it now.
This is a post from a thread I started on the other site. I am at home now and I started the truck up and pulled it in the garage. Once in the garage before I shut it off I opened up the air bleed on the fuel filter and nothing came out. Keep in mind it is now 0f so if there is any water in the...
I don't mean to hijack your post but what is there anyone in the Minnesota area that has a scan tool and would be interested in helping me set my timeing? I have access to several scan tools that buddies own but they are all snap-on. If not where should I go, the gm dealer that I use for parts...
I bought my truck last Aug. it had never pulled anything heavier than a boat. I hooked up to a HD trailer with a backhoe and a bunch of retaining wall block on it and pulled it home in 90f+ temps. My temp gage went up well over center but I didn't worry about it too much as it didn't get...
I wonder if that is net hp or gross. Net hp on a marine motor would be taken at the prop, I would think there would allot less loss in a out drive then in the driveline of out trucks. Although the per cylinder hp list on the IP's make that DS4 mechanical very interesting.
I am running a "rebuilt" D-Tech IP from Tim at Accurate Diesel and a new D-Tech PMD. It runs great. The IP has know core charge and it looks like a completely new piece. Sorry about the pour quality pics all I had at that moment was my cell camera.
I have know idea if this chip works or not, but I increasing mpg and power is definitely possible on my engines. I have been an engine machinist for many years and have always worked on engine buildups that make good power and are very efficient. The 83 blazer in my sig with the 396 gasser gets...
I pretty much followed your procedure but I used a 1/2" breaker bar on the socket on the passenger side. The swivel ended breaker bar in conjunction with the length of the socket worked perfect for getting over the valve cover. The only reason I didn't finish in less then 2 hours was that during...
Let off the throttle early for stops and be smooth with the throttle on accelerations. You can do more with these two then anything else as far as driver input goes. Smooth on acceleration doesn't necessarily mean slow though. I haven't figured out what my truck likes for acceleration for best...
I'm going to watch both. I just read threw all the thread titles here and didn't fine one new to 6.5/new to diesel guy thread in there. I have most of the problematic stuff replaced on mine and it runs GREAT thanks to you guys but info came from over there. It will get pretty boring around here...
