Went with Diesel Care in Memphis.
They're going to rebuild my newly acquired $50 ebay core 4267 pump for $340. Not bad.
If that works out well, then I will send them my other 4267 for a rebuild and I'll be set for a good while.
Now to injectors....
Does Eastern Surplus & Equipment sell...
I am ready to have my injector pump rebuilt and am looking for recommendations of shops. I have a DB2 4267 in my truck, so i went the fleabay and got myself a DB2 4267 core for $50. My plan is to send the new core to get rebuilt, then i'll swap mine out and keep it as a spare to have rebuilt...
Ok, just returned from picking up my M416. 100 miles each way.
The verdict. I absolutely feel a difference using the snorkel and feeding outside air into the intake. No, did not see a 10hp again, but i can tell you 100% the truck is quieter and I noticed a definite change in throttle...
Ok, just drove around today for about 10 minutes and can tell you for sure it is way quieter with the snorkel than without. I didn't get to go far or accelerate much due to traffic, but could say that i did feel a small difference overall aside from the noise factor. But again, didnt drive...
Yes, age makes a difference apparently to realize that cooler air is denser.
In no way saying this is even close to a turbo set up, but almost the same principle applies. Cant argue with science (unless you're a democrat)...
if you really want them, i'll do 280 for the pair plus shipping.
I think greyhound buses still take large-ish items. I remember I paid 80 bucks to have a rear bench seat for my 74 nova shipped from texas on a greyhound and went to the terminal to pick it up.
if you want to get an estimate, my...
well if you looked at the pictures of the seats i have, both pass and driver have tears (repairable though).....Like cucvrus said, hard to find a 40 year old seat with out any.
Not really sure how i feel about selling just one seat - what am i going to do with 1 driver's seat alone? Honestly I...
Flipping an air cleaner does NOTHING buy maybe get more air in - the same HOT air you were getting before you flipped it.
If you have an outside source of cooler air than in the engine bay, then you'll notice something. No one is claiming 5-10hp gain or anything like that.
Fuel economy...
Wrong. They provide cooler, denser air to the engine vs the hot air in the engine bay. Naturally a cold air intake provides a more noticeable change in gas cars - throttle response, slightly better mileage. Will not give as much benefit on a diesel, but if it helps ONLY with noise, then it's...
Where would i be able to find the little connecting piece that goes on the air cleaner to run a tube down to the radiator/pass side headlight?
would someone on here happen to have one they are parting with? if so, message me.
Also - the tube for the CDR valve - does it need to be bent or can...
I'm sure my glow plugs should be replaced too (on my list) but i can see fuel leaking from the IP seals near where the high idle solenoid sits.
The fuels leaks down the bottom and drips off the bell housing., which from what i read here is text book IJ pump seals.
Check the area near the...
One thing I would like to do myself with some help would be to replace my injector pump. Mine has a leak so takes me a few tries and get the huge clouds of white smoke as she cranks, but after 3-4 tries, she'll turn over.
From what I've read up on and watched video's on, it doesn't look like...
but seriously, i think i may just get this one...

I got all the lights and horn working finally and have been driving her around all weekend. I was working at the gun show out in Chantilly this weekend and used her to transport all my firearms (will hopefully have a 416 in 2 weeks, so that will be even better) to the show all weekend...
