    Heat

    That actuator only changes from out side air to recirculate. I ziptied mine and my ac is colder and my heat is hotter. That's not your issue either your thermostat is stuck open or your heatercore is clogged up or your hot cold blend door isn't moving

    E pump stickie

    My 84 turbo 7.3 has a facet 40222 mounted to the filter housing bracket with the MG hard line delete kit I like it haven't had any issues with it. My 85 chevy 6.3 turbo has a holley blue it works good too mounted to the frame under the cab but its really noisy. I have a 6.5 diesel factory lift...

    What turbo is this?

    I'll be putting ac back in mine but I have the wide short radiator and finding a condenser that fits is next to impossible so I'll be putting a aftermarket one in and make my own lines but I don't see how the turbo will interfere with the compressor mounting at all

    6.9 IDI Burning Oil Excessively

    What gears and transmission do you have now? These motors will run against the governor all day long safely but they will burn oil doing it you just need to keep the oil full. My plow truck is a 86 c6 it had a replacement 7.3 put in I forgot the gear ratio but it likes the high revvs and it...

    A word about dieselkleen

    adding lubricity to the fuel is adding lubricity so you could really use any oil. I use atf because it's supposed to have quite a bit of detergents in it to keep stuff clean. I've also had good luck with lucas fuel treatment it's pretty thick too

    Custom 60G glow plugs

    Yah it's something like that. I replaced the return kit with Russes kit and replaced the olives too. Lift pump looks new as well. I'm just going to put a electric lift pump in next that will prime the system while I glow. After the morning start it pops right off for the rest of the day

    Anyone familiar with the VW D24T?

    That's really cool! It has power and cold starts well I don't think the rings are gone its just slow in general like any 80s diesel car nothing like a b230ft. You know a good source for parts like gaskets and timing belts etc? I need to replace that lifter and shim all the valves to spec...

    Anyone familiar with the VW D24T?

    I've read they like to blow head gaskets, I also read you can use rabbit 1.6 head studs to help with that but you have to buy 2 sets or talk arp into selling the quantity needed for the 2.4. The odometer is at 315k miles so it can't be too terrible I'm actually impressed lol. It actually ran...

    What turbo is this?

    If you'd do that I would be super happy you can email to me at [email protected]. For the lope I would be bypassing that water separator they are known to cause air intrusion. While its running bump the shreader valve open on the filter housing what comes out air or solid stream of fuel...

    What turbo is this?

    Definitely keep this post updated! I would absolutely love to see some paper work on this turbo kit if any. I honestly think it was kinda a DIY kit that was sold that's just my assumption. My kit also came with that canister thing that's inline with the turbo oil feed I just left it out as...
