    Power door locks

    Update... pulled the seat out, got the door panel out and there's a small rod that attaches to the door latch mechanism when you push in on the outside door knob. It would stick down and not return. Got everything cleaned up a lubricated good and everything works great now. Hoping to find some...

    Power door locks

    I've been spraying with with everything i can think of with no luck. Going to pull the seat out today and try to pull the door panel out as far as i can to see if i can get my hands in there. I cant remove the door panel completely because there's a screw on the top front that you can only get...

    Power door locks

    I have sprayed some wd40 down there. Hard to see if it was hitting the linkage or not. Even took it for a drive hoping the vibration would free it up.

    Power door locks

    I can't unlock my drivers side door. The actuator only lifts the rod about half way up. Key will not unlock door, inside handle does not unlock it either. With the window down i was able to grab the rod with needlenose plyers but cannot lift it and farther. Has anybody had this happen and have...

    Name the cause of this smokeshow - 6.9IDI+T

    When you installed your moose pump did you unbolt the pump from the drive gear cover or did you remove the drive gear cover from the motor ? If you removed the cover your gears or not timed right. Mine ran surprisingly well for being 180 out. Just hard to start and smoke like crazy.

    Name the cause of this smokeshow - 6.9IDI+T

    6.9 heads

    Does anyone have the specs for a 6.9 head. Minimum head thickness , intake and exhaust recession. I'm looking at a set of rebuilt heads on craigslist and i want to make sure they are correct. I have the specs for a 7.3 but not sure if they are the same.

    Valve covers

    Anybody know why there's a difference in the valve covers ? I though it didn't matter what side they go on.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    I'v had a couple intake bolts off more than once fixing the turbo oil return leak at the valley pan.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    Good to know about the Permatex Right Stuff. I'll give that a try. I'm sure once i figure out whats causing the high crankcase pressure the seal will stay in place. I may have one of those air filter restriction gauges off a ATS turbo in my shop.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    Its got the Banks version of a K&N filter on it. I did clean and re oil it but who knows how restrictive it is. I also replaced the CDR with another used one i had. I'll take the air cleaner off completely and see what happens.( I wont drive it like that , just rev it up in the driveway )

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    It was a old balancer i had that i modified not the new one. When the engine was rebuilt the balancer had a speedy sleeve installed because of wear. I was just trying to duplicate that scenario.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    I thought about that too, thats why i modified a old balancer i had. Crank nose looks fine, not getting any oil on the front side of the balancer only behind it. Im going to put a indicator on the crank and check for runout there.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    I have a video of the blowby. seems like a lot to me but im not sure what normal looks like.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    It has a brand new balancer. I also modified a old balancer by sleeving it to duplicate the size of one with a speedy sleeve (.025 larger) to give the seal a little more bite.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    It did not consume oil before the leak. after that i have no idea if it was using oil. I'm not seeing any smoke so i doubt its the rings. I'm suspecting something with the heads. Still planning on doing a leakdown test before i tear into it. First 2 seals were SKF brand, then i tried Fel-Pro...

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    That did the trick. No more leak out the seal. Time to tear it down and see whats causing the crankcase pressure.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    I will try the towel trick. Seals number 2 & 3 never came out of the bore. Didn't drive it much because it leaked right away.

    Timing cover crank seal problems

    That was my thought too. Its a factory cdr on the banks sidewinder. I did a compression test. 400 was the lowest,480 highest. Going to do a leakdown test this weekend. I would think a lot of other places should be leaking also with high crankcase pressure.
