    Banks power Drain tube leak

    Well like you said reklund as far the way the tube was bent . i took a close look at the tube and the way it was bent , Looking at it quickly it looks perfect , However when i previously fitted the tube inside the grommet i always had enough gap up top by the flange that i had to pull it up to...

    7.3 idi throttle Cable

    the Green machine badly need a throttle cable as the sleeved guide tube under the spring is gone . I found one At local NAPA or i can order the NOS OEM part # F1TZ-9A758-E . I am tired of poor aftermarket parts that it either doesn't work for long or doesn't fit and you have to home rig it...

    Banks power Drain tube leak

    reklund ..I usually reserve re-engineering things as last option . I think you mentioned few key things for me to try , Perhaps 2 holes did not cut it , Maybe the tube ..etc . I might give it a shot withe more holes punched in the VP and poor some oil and watch it like you said

    Banks power Drain tube leak

    OLDBULL8 .. I got your PM and responded , My set up exactly the same and even with few holes punched in the VP i think there could be some dirt or something restricting the flow causing it to build up and gush out. My EGT is working and in place with no issues , I now have a great...

    Banks power Drain tube leak

    I have an EGT gauge which is well possible that was the plug for the EGT Probe , However i don't see why that drain hole should be spitting oil backward ( assuming that is what happening ) like you said in the passenger side which is my case in fact i also see it slightly by the driver side...
