    I have 5 injection pumps and was wondering if anyone has a list of all the DB2 injection pump years with numbers? Thanks!

    Wow! Yea what is that like 4” of more drop from the girdle? I think you should give Kennedy diesel a call. I think he would know.

    On the motor stand with the 130 gpm water pump, 195 single thermostat temperature testing with the shops laser thermometer gun shows that the motor definitely gets at least 30 degrees hotter before the thermostat housing which tells me a lower thermostat is a must have! The hottest parts on the...

    Yesterday afternoon I lifted each side of the Blazer with the Hi lift Jack so I could finish drilling the last two bolt holes for the Motor Crossmember because my drill is too long to get a straight hole. I made darn sure I kept my body away from anything that would kill me if the Jack fell out...

    Things have been busy at the house and work the last few days. I finally got the ORD engine crossmember brace on. It was a PITA to install because my frame was not 100% straight so the bolt holes did not line up that great. I had to bend the frame to get it to line up. Not much, just a few MM...

    Crucial info MUST READ! About 9 years ago I remember reading about a guy in West Jordan Utah buying up the last of the 6.2 Banks Sidewinder Turbo rebuild kits. I think I might have met him on one of my Moab trips. Anyhow, I found his posting on EBay. I bought his second to last one just in...

    Your welcome! I am not afraid to post up my failures and problems that arrive. It is all part of the learning process for me and the reader. I just ordered a 180 degree thermostat and will try that. I currently am using Red Dex Cool to help prevent corrosion. This article explains exactly...

    I randomly went to a guys house that owns a stock M1009 and looked at the motor bay. I am not happily convinced the 6.5 valve cover and Cdr location will suit my needs. I will replace the 6.2 valve cover and oil fill tube and use a civilian Cdr bracket. The motor misfires a little. I will turn...

    I hooked up the radiator and did the 2nd coolant pressure test. Still leaking from the thermostat housing. Looks like I will need to get a new one or double up on the gasket. Kinda strange that the thermostat housing gauge reads 15 psi and the rear coolant plate gauge reads 11 psi. I am guessing...

    I tried a series of different tensioner pulleys and could not find a good fit smaller pulley. So I decided to modify my own. I picked up this free pulley from a friend. It came off of a Subaru tensioner pulley. I used my die grinder and took off 2mm and then took off 1mm from the 6.5 aluminum...

    Anyone know why?

    If I give solenoid power with no power to starter, I get a click noise. The starter wires are loose Or the starter is seized. Did you use locking washer on starter wire to battery? Does the starter battery terminal move by hand? Is starter wire touching frame Or manifold? The inner solenoid...

    Got off work today and spent 10 minutes taking off the driver side exhaust with the sawzall. It’s painful to see myself tossing it. After all it is 3” stainless with flow master. I got started on removing the Oem motor crossmember and just as I was on the last rivet, wife came out and said it’s...

    I swapped out the 6.2 oil filler to the 6.5 oil filler because I am going to a 6.5 CDR set up for the snorkel. For just the rest runs, I installed a 0-60 oil pressure gauge. I am now experimenting with getting a smaller diameter tensioner pulley so it does not hit the larger water pump pulley...

    IDK why the shop put the Phantom 2 oil temperature gauge sensor on this ridicules long tower of fittings! The gauge never read over 100 degrees... Now I know why! Lol! I am removing this sensor and will put it on the oil pan somewhere. Temporarily I also removed the mechanical Phantom 2 Oil...

    Operation Save A Blaze

    I paid the junk yard the $1750 for the storage fees. I drove it to my work and parked it there until registered owner sends the title after he gets the bill of sale and check in the mail. I pray he does not screw me over. I would hate to have to turn bounty hunter and hunt him down! Lol! Will...

    Good news and bad news! The good! Racor fuel filter/housing is sold. I filled up the oil a few days ago and drained it last night. It was extremely dirty from doing all that work to the motor. I filled it up again and started the motor for 1 minute dry of coolant. It runs very good! No...
