Fan clutch may be locked up and pulling too much air all the time. Thermostat should open when water temp reaches 180* inside engine. After that radiator and air flow take over. Check that with your IR gun. You can put thermostats in a pan of water on the stove and they will open at the...

In to win! And a big thanks to Ron and Hawker Batteries!!

You could hone those cylinders another .005 and still be the same bore as a 6.5L.

The bore of a 6.2L is 3.980 inches. The bore of a 6.5L is 4.060 inches which is .080 bigger than the 6.2L. Think about that a little bit.

Does that tag mean that it is bored .075 in each cylinder?

Do you have 12 volt at the diamond on the front firewall? Sounds like fusible link is melted.

Worn valve guides in heads allow exhaust to come back up between the valve and guide and prematurely "cook" the valve seals and make them brittle.

Check all connections at batteries and starter. Even though batteries are new load test them. Starter or starter solenoid may be bad. Remove starter and have it checked. Report back.

Is there enough room when sliding transmission and transfer case back on 4 inch bolts when changing flywheel to remove torque convertor and change front transmission seal?

It is very hard if not impossible to replace the knowledge of experienced mechanics who share with fellow enthusiasts!! We all miss you Rustystud!!!

Looks like some one put blinker fluid in the bearings instead of grease and it has malfunctioned and stays on all the time! :LOL:

Looks good! What part of Texas are you located?

One of the new aluminum heater cores properly installed and sealed will provide nearly as much heat as an August day in Oklahoma! :LOL: Well maybe not quite that much but it is a lot warmer in cold weather!

Are you sure both wheel brake cylinders are the same bore?

I have cleaned diesel nozzles at pumps with ether because they were so nasty. Works good. If you think diesel was bad try the Seafoam or keep adding ATF. It might still free up that injector. Maybe try not driving it so hard for a while. I would put in the Seafoam in a nearly empty tank and run...

Try a quart of Seafoam to a tank of diesel.

Dexron II or III is what I always used. I would also get some seafoam and use it pretty strong if ATF doesn't work.

It doesn't look like a good place to be sitting if that filter ruptures!

If my foresight was as good as my hindsight I would have 20/20 vision out of my backside! :LOL:
