I’m concerned about my lack of timing marks. I also cleared a path for water. I was able to get that rivet drove thru and I have a hole. I will pour some water in it and see if it drains. I can’t see the rivet and I didn’t want to get too aggressive and go in too deep.
I believe I found the rivet that RWH was talking about. I don’t know what to do about my missing timing marks. I will look again and see if I can find a good reference point.
It didn’t look right to me. If truck was running and then needed a pump I would have trusted the marks. Thank you RWH.
When I install new pump I just need to worry about getting the dowel pin in and bolted up then line up the timing marks?
I believe I found my timing marks on the pump and the housing… I know nothing about it but it doesn’t look right to me. It looks way too far to the passenger side… inquiring minds want to know.
Sell it and start over with a newer truck… probably cheaper in the long run and you will probably have heavier duty stuff on the newer truck. Swap whatever stuff you like on yours before you sell it. I decided that I would like to have a turbo and a hardtop with some ac. I put a pencil to it and...
I dug some stuff out around the hole and it was like jb weld or similar. When I get the pump out and valley clean I will be able to get a better look at it. I can feel lump of stuff where hole should be. I will get a drill bit in there or a Uni bit. I’m not worried about hurting the block and...
I don’t know where it will go but I think it will run down the back of the block and out of the weep hole in the torque converter cover. I just don’t want it sitting in the valley anymore.
I received my tools that Jake20 recommended and it made it a lot easier! I got all but one line loose at the pump and I removed the passenger side rear 2 lines. My lines were really tight and I can’t imagine that’s what it’s calling for. When/if I get done this will look good and if I ever sell...
I don’t know sometimes I think we look for problems.. if it starts in the first 5 seconds and it goes in gear we are looking good! I was driving my truck today and I was thinking is it idling a little high and then I thought I felt a small vibration. I have never worried so much about a vehicle...
I stopped using my turn signals in the 90’s! Once I figure out that they were connected to the gas pedal in the cars around me. I like to surprise them! I would like to do this Camo setup but bigger Fish to fry for now…
I got my bolts cleaned up and I was able to get most of the paint off of the intake with an air nozzle. Finished it off with a little brake cleaner. It looks good. I ordered some fancy sockets and they should be here before 10pm. I was going to order one from blackdog but it was 64$ for one 5/8...
Hahahaha I tried the ratchet and Jack handle and I never could get it in the right spot and have a hand free to work the belt on. That took I made worked so good and I can reach it from the other side. I could have done with just a little help
