    Engine Running Cold

    I just replaced my dead PMD with the new “improved” model with a number 9 resister. The old PMD also had a number 9 resister and had been relocated to behind the front grill on a radiator support. I don’t understand why it still died, as it was new when relocated one year ago. Anyway, the...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    Hey Ladman, Sorry I didn't have my signature filled out. I have a GMC not a Ford. It sounds like my PMD (Pump Mounted Driver) is the same as your IDM (Injector Driver Module). My PMD controls the Injection Pump which sends the fuel down to the injectors. As far as tester goes, I...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    I wrote to Walt at SSdieselsupply and explained everything I had done, and how the motor was behaving. He asked me to send him my PMD (which I had recently purchased from him), and he would take a look at it. I’m waiting to hear back from him, or find a package at the front door. I’ll let you...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    I purchased from SSDiesel, the PMD has a large heat sink and mounts by the back to flange holes of the heat sink through the two bolt holes furthest towards the drivers side, on the top of the intake manifold. The PMD sort of hangs in the air to the side of the intake. Third Update...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    Second Update: As I wrote before, fuel flows out of filter cap when loosened. Also flows out of water separator when opened and motor cranked. But – I disconnected a fuel line to a cylinder, and when cranked motor – no fuel! What should I check now? Thank you for the help, I...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    Update: After letting the truck sit for almost an hour and a half, I tried to start it again. After a few cranks it sputtered to life!! I sat in the truck and moved the throttle from idle up to 2000 rpm then down to about 1500 and held it there for a little bit, then just kept moving it up...

    After Injector Install, Engine Started, Ran, Then Died

    Hello All, I finished installing new marine injectors. It took a few cranks of the starter to get the motor to catch - I thought no big deal 'cause all the fuel lines were empty from being disconnected. The motor ran for approximately 3-4 minutes (sounded really good) then died. Repeated...

    Oil Feed Line for Turbo

    Well, the splice from the hydraulic shop is holding, at least for now :hail. Here are pictures of the splice and the infeed to the turbo. It's the other end I could not get to. Chip

    Oil Feed Line for Turbo

    I went to the local hydraulics shop today and took the new line with me. I explained to the guy how I wanted to splice the one good end onto the old hose that was still in the truck. He took the line in the back and a few minutes later returned with the line cut in two, and the "good" end had...

    Oil Feed Line for Turbo

    I pulled the vac pump off - that did not help at all. I also pulled the alternator off, and that did not help. I even started to pull the whole accessory bracket, but I realized it would take a lot of work, more than I could do. It appears to me the best way to get at the hose end is to remove...

    Oil Feed Line for Turbo

    I'm having a hell of a time. Itook off the Alternator but there is a llarge bracket that still blocks the way in. Someone on another board said they had to take of the A/C compressor and stuff. I do not want to try this. I'm having a hard enough time with my bad back. Does anyone know about...

    Oil Feed Line for Turbo

    Hi All, I need to install a new oil feed line to the turbo, I accidentally pinched the old one :eek: . No issues on the turbo side, but the other end disappears into a jumble :dunno . Are there any tips or tricks to get to this end? Do I have to remove anything to get down to this end...

    Test Run with Just Downpipe?

    Hi All, I have just finished putting in a new set of injectors, (Marine type from SSDiesel). I'm also going to install a 4" exhaust system (also from SSDiesel). Question: To test that everything is working correctly after the injector install, can I put on just the downpipe from the new...
