Any advice on what to look at, timing is per the OEM spec. +/- 2 degrees. Dist. is a new EFI Connection vortec unit. Crank sensor is a EFI connection provided sensor and billet cam cover.

newbie - truck is 98 K2500 Chevy. In process of installing a SBC 427 Dart SHP block stroker. Has AFR aluminum heads and Cust. Grind COMPCAMS Hydraulic roller. OEM EFI (with a 48lb/h rated spider) and ignition with a 0411 PCM upgrade with a custom BBP tune installed. Getting a Crank/Cam correlation OBDII code.

95 Chevy 6.5L T-Dsl-Installed new BLOCK heater/replaced 1/2 batteries & it would not crank (instrumentation lights work). OBD1 system-what is wrong electrically? 2nd battery still good. I am open to any suggestions as to the problem & a solution or where 2 get a better scanner. Thanks!!!

Hey, it seems like you know quite a bit about IP timing. I just replaced the IP on my 94 and I'm having a hard time get the TDCO set. It runs and seems to run the best when the actual timing is about 18*. I can make it run at about 7 but that is it. Anything below that and it won't run. My TDCO is currently at -2.02 and I can't get it set to anything else. I honestly don't know what to do at this point. Any thoughts?

Hi, I'm currently trying to use your db2 conversion guide and I have some questions about wiring and a few accessories. If you have time to discuss it I would be grateful.

Hello

Rumor has it your may have some Banks 6.2l turbo manifolds available?
I'd sure be interested in buying one if you do

If you’re not a mechanic, you’d better learn the use of YouTube fast or you’ll have nothing but a yard ornament or an expensive bill to change one part.

The TOPDON LITE scanner indicated that the the Glow plugs in cylinders #1,3, 5 were bad. I removed
them, tested with an ohm meter and they checked ok. Then I tested them with 12 volts DC and
they would get red hot in only about two seconds. With a TOPDON PRO hope for something new
will come up. So far, the 6.6 L Duramax LLY
makes no effort to start with the starter spinning great.

Me & my husband rebuild at 1963 GMC P20 step van ice cream truck. We put the truck in shop to get the front end done. On the way home the tire fall off. So we are looking for a GMC ck3500 front axle complete.If you know anyone who might have this could you please let me know thank you. Here are some pictures of the truck

I wanna swap out my 97 k1500 4l60e to a 97 4l80e trans what would i all need besides the torque converter for the 4l80e ? And do i need the plug harness end for the 4l80e as i read some where one time i can make the 4l60e plug work by moving some wires around ? And i know i need to move the crossmember back a ways

With my "No Start" problem I tried using a scanner which posted a code of PO81-3F. It read "Wait to start" ign failed. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have just swapped out an 01 4L80-E transmission with an 03 4L80-E transmission I used all of my sensors and hardware on the used one and it shifts a little hard in second and harder in 3rd. It started shaking the whole van yesterday when I went up steep hill. I pulled over put in park then put back in drive and it's been ok. Do I need new sensors?? I'm dumb when it comes to transmissions!

I am 54, and just bought my first diesel truck. 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 4X4 New body style 6.6l LMM. I am having the DPF removed, and an external fuel pump added. I'm not looking to go crazy with horsepower, I just would like recommendations on upgrading. For example, transmission cooler, etc. I plan on using it for mostly pulling campers, and trailers.

This 2003 GMC (C4500) has a "LINK Mfg. UltraRide system" installed when the vehicle was new & was part of a Detergent TIDE NASCAR fleet. (Thus the color). The tank was installed on its side, thus moisture could not be drained which has led to tank & pump failure. Best options for solution???

1995 Silverado 3500 dually bought it non running…my first diesel engine but I’m learning with the help of the forum and YouTube …just got a pop tester and soaking my injectors (6.5 L Detroit diesel) getting them ready to test but may be in need of shims for Bosch 0430211097 turbo diesel injector…71 years old hope I’m not too old to learn but I am a grumpy old man…thanks panran

2006 LBZ Duramax

Scott, just to ask on this issue what fuel resister are you using? #9?
if that is what your using replaces it with a #5 and then time the pump you will find it will work a lot better. after you get it set up then replace the #5 with The #9. i found that trying to time the pump with a #9 i was getting codes p216 and p218 one i installed the #5 timing the pump went great.

Have 93 4x4 6.5td all stock so far. Complete rebuilt front end and suspension. Work in progress, 418,000 km, retirement project.

Hi, DieselAmateur
First of all I have to thank you for your kindness

I think the pulleys are interchangeable from GM alternator to GM alternator, but I don't know for sure
have an AC-244 alternator, please make sure the pulley you have will fit AC-244.
