    Bad Misfire when under load

    Mine started once in a while to intermittent and finally to the point it sounded like that for about 4 months and they finally died and my truck was down for 2 days and right on time then injectors showed up so that I had my truck up that weekend. Got lucky on that one that the timing was just...

    Bad Misfire when under load

    @Thewespaul will have any injector you would want/like/need for your application. He should chime in and give you the rundown and let you know which ones are best suited for your truck. And he also does rebuilds and balances them if u just want them rebuilt. Check his website out at Classic...

    Alrighty, so at 65 mph my boost guage stayed between 6-7 psi cruising with the load compared to the 3-5 prior to injectors. Coolant temps got higher than I like at 215 but still well within safe ranges but the egts did get a touch high at 1050 when going uphill but still didn't downshift as my...

    Bad Misfire when under load

    That's how my truck was sounding and tapping got just as fast as the engine speed under acceleration. That knock would become harder pulling a trailer or going uphill as well as doing both at the same time. I just replaced my injectors with some of wespauls at Classic Diesel Designs and it went...

    60/40 bench swap?

    I was actually thinking about doing this or something similar not too long ago just never got around to doing it. My job has plenty of 99-2012 trucks and spare parts and was thinking if getting rid of my bench seat up front as I am not the hugest fan. Let us know how that works. May push me to...

    That may be so but he'll also be the fastest to make another fastest IDI truck and reclaim his place. Lol.

    Dang man! Still hate that that happened. I was just gonna suggest that u put a set of injectors in it like the ones I just got from you to see what it could compliment with your setup. Guess I spoke too late, but then again it may have been in veign

    6.9 motor problem diagnosis

    If you were a bit closer I'd let u borrow one of mine and an engine puller. Do as you will, but I have done in bay and pulled the block and put it on a stand several times a piece and the extra few steps definitely makes it easier for me. Them heads are heavy! Placing them gingerly just in the...

    Well as u know, I will give them a workout! Lol. Last I heard, that dodges opening for the shop is Tuesday afternoon so I should be pulling it then. Not tomorrow like I was hoping, but still got a day set. But if work requires me to pull a similar weight load before then I will jot bost, temp...

    6.9 motor problem diagnosis

    I would try a touch of marvel mystery oil in the oil to see if you can free up a sticky lifter. May work, may not. I had decent luck doing this twice. But as mentioned before, it kinda sounds like it could be a valve problem. Either way, you seem intent on pulling the heads for more reasons than...

    Idle is so smooth and it almost sounds quiet. Throttle response is rediculousely quick. In neutral snapping the throttle to 3500 real quick made the boost guage jump to 6 psi. Getting on it a touch just to see what's up with the responsiveness while headed to the gas station a few minutes from...

    Well I didn't get to work on the truck yesterday. Doing it now and figured I'd do all new return lines caps etc and just replaced gp mod and relay and figured I'd swap new gp's in as well. They all pulled out fine and easy as they should as they are zd9 but have all failed. And still didn't get...

    Glow plug too close to turbo?

    I'm surprised at the angle u were able to get that picture! Lol. Impressive. As far as your concern, it does look rather close. Maybe lower profile plug end, maybe wrap the pipe, I'm no engineer but I would do both just to be safe. Just my opinion.

    Too loud?

    The turbo quieted mine down more than any muffler ever did. Do what u wish, but u may have the issue solved already this spring before u drop in necessary cash into an issue that may already be covered in your future plans. Just my opinion.

    Thinking I should take off work soon and head that way. Was gonna wait, but thinking more and more I dont wanna shoot myself in the foot not having it timed right away vs just stubbing my toe pointing up asap as far as my trucks health is concerned.

    Member the mention of time off as well as the cost of fuel to get there. Lol. Either way, we can poke fun back and fourth all night. It is what it is. Just wish me some luck on decent enough weather being the barns are full so that I can get those bad boys in there this weekend. May give that...

    Yes he can. After I drive 4 1/2 hours south to get there. Lol. It would definitely be worth the drive, the time, the coin and the company, I just need the time off, the coin for fuel to get there, the coin to have him help me out with the timing, and I have shown up several times there empty...

    Classic Diesel Designs injectors

    Oh I'm sure they will! Trucks parked past few days and two of my flea bay injectors are pissing while I hold them in the barn and pour diesel through the top with no pressure, just a piece of 3/8 hoseover the threads and a small funnel. One of them I pumped up to 2600 psi and no pop at all...

    Are these rusty rotors ok?

    Imho I would at least take a wire wheel to them. If I had a few bucks I could spare I would soak everything down with your favorite penetrating spray and go back out tomorrow and fight them off and have them resurfaced. Have been known wen funds are low to put the frame on blocks and leave it in...
