Roger that.
Have a head gasket replacement coming up and replacing all of the plugs w/ brass was one of the things I had on the list.

7/8 was too small, so I picked up 1" ones, but they are steel. Can I not use those and need to have brass because it's aluminum?

Was hoping to have someone w/ space reply.
I am working on finding some place if the transport person doesn't live there, but that is still in the works.

I need 4, G-177 ' s on rims moved from Ridgeway before fri 15th, to Grand Junction, or somewhere close, and held, so that they can be picked up on the 20th.
Pick up location would need semi access.
Recovery from Ridgway could be w/ a truck , van, or trailer.
Please contact asap if you can...
I just started leaking pretty major out of a freeze plug on the intake manifold.
At the moment I do not have access to the appropriate TM, and only have today to find another one before I'm back out of a city.
Can anyone tell me what size they are?

Ok, need to close up this thread.
Got another turbo shipped to me thanks to Rayzer (you can count on a woodworker to make a nice shipping box) and installed it while parked-up in the NF.
After that everything sounded normal again. The turbo did seem to kick in a bit later than I was used to...

DW - Thanks, but right now those locations don't mean much. I've been full-timing again and that's not an option for locations on this site. :-/
Current location is Clint's Well in N.Ariz.
I will definitely be down around those areas come winter. :-]

Ok, checked over a bunch of things. The engine still runs well, no miss or stumble in the idle or running.
Did find oil in the intake, cleaned the air filter best I could, and put it back together.
It ran w/ the exhaust dirty, not blue but too brown for it to be idling.
When I picked up the...
Wouldn't it need to be bad enough to set off the indicator that's in the cab?
I've heard that these stock filters can be washed, like w/ soapy water?

I'll pull that hose tomorrow when I check for oil going that way and see if I can find any leaks.
Air filter is dirty, but don't see where that would make things change all of a sudden.
Will check the injectors as you recommend.
The head gasket was one of my first two thoughts. Any easy way...
Not sure what you mean by that. Is that the hose that connects the turbo to the intake?
It looks good and is still flexible. I don't see any issues there. Clamps are all good.
I do not have a boost gauge.

Not that I really have anywhere else to be once I start having issues. :-]
The issues,
was running up hill for about 30 miles, was in 4th, just keeping it from overheating.
Then it seemed like something popped. Couldn't really hear it well, ear plugs and music, but then I lost a lot of...
