    E4OD Light on, stuck in 4th gear

    Your tach signal goes through the TECA before it gets to the gauge. If the TECA has no power, your tach goes dead.

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    So Russ, This cam has been around for a while from what I understand. Have people always needed to shave pistons and all this to make sure the valves don't get hit by them? Seems like folks have just recently started to have some of these problems. Did something change with the cam grinder...

    Accurate diesel injectors, turbo vs non.

    So, here is the thing. We have found over time that the only reputable injectors come from only a few sources. Please do yourself a favor and purchase from on of these. More money up front, but you won't need to replace them again in 3 months. Mel at www.conestogadiesel.com Justin at...

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    I have gone out and done some math in the 7 degree weather we had this morning. The typ4 cam I have has lobe bases anywhere between 1.467 and 1.485. The lobes at maximum lift are all between 1.750 and 1.763. So maximum lift of the cam lobe could be calculated at most being .298 inch...

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    So, I just need to install the springs with the .030 shim and I am good to go? I am good with that. Looking at the power stroke guys that run these springs, seems as though they like an installed height of 1.75 inches to give them approximately 130 pounds of spring pressure. Maybe I should...

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    There are, but I am not smart enough to know what style is best, so I asked.

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    Thanks Gary. I thought that is what the shim is for, to make sure the springs are at the right seat pressure. Now, I just want to know how to measure that pressure and make sure I am right.

    Anyone selling used factory turbo or turbo kit??

    Should go right on as long as it includes all the parts. There are some threads about installing the factory kits I am sure, to make sure you are getting all the parts.

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    Also, my heads have been surfaced a few thousandths, and the valves recessed the proper amount to fall within spec, does this change the amount of shims I might need to get the proper seat pressures on the valves?

    Comp 910 valve spring questions and installation

    i have rebuilt heads Already. At the time, I decided to just have the springs put back in as they were in good shape. Now that I am about to install a typ4 cam, I need to change those out to the comp 910s before I install them(not sure if I will build a short block or just go with my runner)...

    sound off a healthy idi!

    It absolutely will change sounds when starved for fuel. The injector pump timing is directly related to fuel pressure, so if pressure drops, timing is affected. That is where rattle comes from.

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    Glad you got it worked out. I bet the starter will turn over now too. Good luck!

    Did you get it to start? Power to the chassis?

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    Ok, so your glow plug harness is right for an 86, (I did some quick internet searches to see how the 6.9 controller works and is wired) but your starter harness isn't. You have the battery+ isolated on the wrong side of the solenoid. Do you have a test light? Is there voltage on the large wire...

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    Where do the three wires that come off the back terminal of you glow plug solenoid go? They should only go to the glow plugs if that solenoid is controlled by a manual button.

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    Ok, I think I see the problem and what has been done here. It looks like you need to swap the wire that goes to the starter only,(not the other wires on the front terminal) with the larger main power wire. All the other wires on the fron terminal are the wiring that powers the rest of the...

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    Well, they are all wrong, so we need to get you figured out. I don't have any pictures right now, but I might be able to grab some in the morning. Also, mine is a 92, so some things might look a little different. Is there a glow plug controller mounted at the rear of the passenger side...

    Nothing happens when I turn the key???

    I see some things that make me question what you have done here. First, I don't see the white from the fender mounted solenoid down to the starter mounted solenoid. Second, where that wire is supposed to be, you have a large wire running off to this other solenoid mounted down below it...
