I was just looking at an ebay ad of theirs and DCP yesterday evening. Wish I would have went with one of them to start with..... In either case, looks like Pensacola Diesel or DCP would both be about $550 including the core charge. Much better than OFI... I've emailed both of them, see what...

Ok, heard back from Oregon Fuel Injection today, they received my "core" IP this morning, tore it apart etc. They said that the pump was seized and the shaft was broke, therefore it can't be used as a core because it is not rebuildable. auaaua So if I buy a rebuilt IP from them, its going to...

Hello again Ken I actually already shipped out the IP yesterday, but before we took it off, one of the first things I checked was the shutoff solenoid. I tested it on the truck first, and later even took it out and bench tested it, and also made sure the little lever it pushed on inside the...

Hello Again Cucvrus! Yeah, the guy on the injectors that sued DCP, I don't know the whole story. But it was on a newer (2016??) truck, apparently the injectors cost several grand, I think somewhere between $6 to $800 each (maybe more?). He bought a whole set from DCP and had a dealership to...

Yeah, Mark at Oregon Fuel Injection mentioned the Stanadyne additive too. I know I've read a little about it before from other people here on SS. Guess I need to find some too.

Hi Rsh4364 Yeah, I've heard about them too, but i've also seen a lot of complaints as well. Seems like people either like them or hate them. Even saw one guy who said he sued them over a set of injectors he had bought from them for a newer model ford I believe it was. So I wasn't to sure about...

spoke with Mark at Oregon Fuel Injection, he told me that this pump number (DB2829-4521) was designed to be able to also run jet fuel as well as Diesel besides some other fuel mixes. However, because it was designed to run jet fuel, it was built with hardened parts, which he said reduces its...

Since the Delphi turned out to be rebuilt like everyone elses, I started looking at Oregon Fuel Injection since it seems a lot of people here have used them with good success. Was also looking at Huckstorf Diesel, which seems like a good company, but haven't found much reviews about them. The...

Found what I thought was a brand new Delphi IP ( #EX631058 ) on Amazon, as it had no core charge. But from what I've found else where, its apparently a rebuilt unit. It looks like the exact same pump, and its listed to fit GMC 82' - 86' 6.2l engine. Its $590 which is still expensive, but...

Was hoping that it wasn't the IP, but thats what I figured was wrong. Guess I'm going to have to find a good rebuilt one.

Ok... its been a few months, been really busy these past several months, and been working on... everything it seems :roll: anyway, finally got the truck in the garage about a week ago, removed intake, water pump, timing cover etc etc and found what happened this last time the truck died. It...

thought I would post a little update... or the final update as it were... Truck had been running fine... got all the little "kinks" with the vacuum lines, and other little things sorted out. Got the backup camera and some other little things fixed inside the cab as well. have been driving...

yeah sure, but its rather expensive isn't it?

does it hold up well? it would probably be easier to paint in cooler weather that we're having now. Still got some warm days here and there, wouldn't take as long to dry or cure I guess.

uhmmm... it only shows there being 190 pages total :shrugs:

How many cans did that take to paint :shock:

Hey All, back about 6 years ago, my dad and I painted our m1008 with behr olive green paint mixed from the paint codes listed here on SS. Been really satisfied with it, after 6 years of sitting in the sun and etc, it has faded a little bit. But other than that, it has held up great. Now we're...

Dexron VI does have a little lower viscosity, but from what others here have said it should actually increase fuel milage... if it's enough of an increase to actually be noticeable I kind of doubt it personally. As I said in my last post, there are multiple guys here on SS who have been using...

There's a bunch of guys on here who use dexron VI without any issues. It is supposed to be fully compatible with dex III applications. Its also a fully synthetic fluid as well, so it shouldn't break down as quickly. And I already had a case of it here.

Yeah, I was going to try that too. Hadn't found what you had to do to adjust it, but was going to search about it. Thanks Ken for the info. I'll try that tomorrow. None of these lines, the vac pump, or either module was hooked up before, so who knows. If that doesn't work, then I found a new...
