    TECH 101 engine chuff/ valve breaks POST MORTEM

    Hmm, I wonder why that one decided to wear out when the others didn't seem to have a problem yet. Just the luck of the draw sometimes?

    replaceing the oil pan gasket

    Nope no hard starting at all but I do have a fuel leak lol. Coming out of the weep hole on my IP from im guessing just the seals being bad. But hasn't got to the point that I feel like pulling it especially with the truck not being my daily driver. But I can tell it is not just a mix of fuel...

    replaceing the oil pan gasket

    In regards to this, this is exactly what I have. But would that mean that the drain plug is leaking oil past it, or exactly what would be causing oil to come down from that area?

    Cowl Drain Rubber Seal

    How come it needs to be sealed? Sorry if I come off as a newb, still learning about these trucks, but I thought thats where water is supposed to drain down and out to. Or is the open center area used for that, and if these seals aren't on the side it will result in getting water in the inside...

    TECH 101 engine chuff/ valve breaks POST MORTEM

    So any idea yet of what caused the valve guide to wear out like that and cause the valve to not be able to seal? I know you mentioned the crack, or what you think is a crack at this point, but how would that relate to causing the guide to wear out and become that loose? Sorry im still...

    Cowl Drain Rubber Seal

    Hey guys I just had a quick question. Finally got back to working on the truck and also have been installing windows in my garage to get some light and air flow in finally. So i've been back and forth on those, but with the high heat here in KY; it has slowed me down. I was taking my cowl off...

    Finally Back

    Hey guys, I was just checking in. Some of you may have noticed, although probably not since I wasn't a big poster to begin with; but I have been off the forum for many months now. I unfortunately suddenly lost my father back in May which was quite difficult for me. Being just now 23, still...

    Considering taking requests for Pictutorials or suggestions.

    x2 on the dash removal. I had it almost all done here recently when dealing with my water under the vinyl ordeal but I couldnt figure out the remaining things on the drivers side. I had the passenger side completely off and almost everything on the the drivers side but couldn't figure the...

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    I ended up just bolting it back on without sealing it for now atleast and til I can get an idea about where water is coming in from. I have a single cab so I really never have any problems with not getting enough heat lol, but if that did become a problem id know why. Appreciate it.

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    What about the cover for the heaterbox? Is that something that needs to be sealed or can it just be bolted back up? It had silicone on it when I pulled it out but I dont know if thats just some any fumes down makes it way in or what. I dont know if it would be bad to drive without the cover...

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    Well I finally cut off the foam insulation from the firewall underneath the e heater box. I tried to get as close and under the heaterbox as best I could but it dont leave much room. I guess my best bet is to just drive the truck with the flooring out and stuff and if it leaks then obviously...

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    I had just a tiny bit in there as far as I can tell. But quick question, even if it was blocked, how does the water get inside the cab? My plate was totally sealed so I dont see where the water could even pool up and make its way in.

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    I was hoping you were going to chime in soon as I know that you know your stuff pretty good. As far as the carpet, my truck is a custom or xl package so i do have the vinyl. This is actually the foam that is glued to the firewall that runs behind the dash. It was soaking wet only behind the...

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    Im hoping someone can eventually chime in and tell me if that hole on top of the box is normal for non ac truck or not; cus if its not than boom theres my problem. If thats totally normal, then I guess I will have to keep searching; but my heater core looked perfect.

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    Yes my heat is pretty good, acourse I dont know if maybe thats just because its a single cab. But ive had one person tell me thats totally normal and supposed to be a hole there beens its a non ac truck. Another said that does not look right and thats where my water is coming in from...

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    Well shit guys! Maybe an update here. Im going to go out on a limb here and say this probably aint normal and should not be a hole there? It doesn't look like its jaggedly broke or anything but I assume thats not supposed to be open to the right of the hoses? Or is that because im a...

    how do I get the heater hoses off of it from inside the engine bay? I loosened the 2 black screw down type clamps but they still arent wanting to budge.

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    once I pull it out how will I know if thats what is causing the wetness? Cause it seems like the foam is behind the box and no way to really see whats leaking down to it with the dash and box in the way.

    Need Help Fast, Got To Have My Truck Up Tomorrow

    Well ive already got enough done to get to the heater core. Does the heater core come out into the cab or does it go out through the engine bay?

    no, I have no ac; mines a heat only truck which has been acting fine. But I just pulled my vinyl floor tonight because I had my seat out repairing the cable that lets the seat slide forward and back. So while it was out I decided to pull the floor and do some cleaning up underneath it...
