Running wmo as a fuel could be screwing with your results. Try running straight diesel for a while and then having it retested. A little fuel always gets past the rings especialy on cold starts. Denny

Welcome to the green Iron nut house. All crazys welomed here. Make suer to read your TMs and search the site before asking questions or bad things can happen to you. :cookoo: As for your problem just remove the pipe and just weld a patch over it. Denny :drool:

I would use diesel fuel before I used anything water based. With as much rust as I see in there I would also disassemble and rebuild or at least replace the bearings. :doh: Why add to problems by using a waterbased cleaner? Also I think purple power will attack alloys so that may leave your...

If I were a betting man I would bet on that head needing 2 valve seats and 2 valve guides and both valves for that cylinder for a start. Hot tanking over night will remove the molten aluminum from the ports and manifolds. That head will need some machine work and the injector replaced! Don't...

Lust4green, I am older and have been around all types of vehicles my whole life. I try to pass my knowledge on to the younger generations but all they seem to be interested in video games or the easy way out of work. I had a business (golfcart sales and service) and I would pay kids to learn...

If they can put big block chevy engines that were cut in half to repair other breaks and locomotive blocks with huge chunks missing than that starter boss will seem like childs play. Denny

Do Not Use Toilet Paper For Filters!!!!!!! If it seems like I'm yelling at you it is because I am! Use only the recomended filters, NAPA carries them usually. Trust me that injector is junk and may have caused the problem in the first place, it got way too hot. Pull the pan hose everything out...

Remember wives come and go. When they go they usualy take half of your stuff with them then sue you for the other half. aua The voice of experience, Denny

I have a 1971 AM General m35a2 w/w and c turbo (w/w means with winch). Did I mention I love it! Denny

Gonna need a new injector and I would not be suprised to find a cracked valve seat or 2. aua If it were me I would replace the rocker arms on that cylinder also (probably tweaked) and keep an open mind about finding a new head. Denny

If you search the site you will find there is a very good write up on how to disassemble, clean and rebuild the wiper motors. It's not that hard and common sense will guide you most of the way. Let search be your friend! Denny

Oh, I forgot to mention the noise, the lovely, wonderful sounds they make. Forget trying to talk to that chick you just picked up because she will never hear you. Of course the up side is you will not have to listen to her either! :mrgreen: And if you have a whistler you also get to look...

At age 46 I finaly got a deuce! I spent 2 years lurking here and other sites reading everything I could about them. Searching reliable part supliers, tools needed and looking the trucks over in person and rode in a few (I am an exmechanic due to an accident only limited use of my right hand and...

There is a company called Lock-N-Stitch their specalty is repairing cast iron. They make kits you can buy for do it your self cast iron repair. They can help you guys probably a lot cheaper than welding and you could do it without having to remove or disassemble the engine. Look them up and...

Just curious, how has this scoop worked out? Performance, lower egt, noise, or whatever? Denny

Diecorpse, You may want to send the heads out to be checked. with a piston that melted your engine saw a lot of heat. 1. Have the heads deck checked for straitness. 2. Have the valves removed to make sure none of the seats are dammaged. 3. No warped valves. 4. No sticking valves or bad guides...

Stay away from the headers unless you enjoy fixing exhaust leaks all the time. :doh: The bolts for the exhaust manifolds go directly into the water jackets on most chrysler engines that also makes for a fun place to have a coolant leak.:jumpin: Not to mention having to buy a mini starter also...

That poor little trailer does not look happy.:grd: Denny

At least I can spell TIRES! :burn:Which by the way is the correct spelling. or if you are from the south like my dad, it's tars. Tyres is actualy a slang spelling that originated around the turn of the century popular only in the UK and it's colonies. There are many words you chaps can't spell...
