OK, i aquired a set of 2-hole injectors and had them professionally cleaned and tested. after installing them i immediately noticed 3 things: 1 + it started much easier and quicker 2 ++ it smokes much less like you have all said 3 --- it is down on boost and power...

Wow...22°! I'm not great at finding that specification in the TM. Seams you guys are all concurred. A 12v Cummins is around 13° stock, and 18° is sorta extreme for them. I have sights on a couple options for the 2 hole injectors but the cost right now (about $250) is something I will be...

Yeah I just had my injectors tested and cleaned but they are single holes. 2 hole injectors are going to happen for sure. Just wondering if anyone has messed with advanced timing

injection pump timing advance ldt/lds multifuel anyone? I would like to know has anybody been brave enough to try and Advance timing setting for their multi-fuel? Either for a better power or smoke reduction. for any reason has anybody purposely advanced timing and having experience of what...

Good lessons from the link & the video. I am still hoping to find someone who has tried advanced IP timing on a ldt or lds. I am going to try another post specific to IP timing.

it looks like I found that at least one or two options for the two hole injectors. Does anyone have any experience advancing or playing with the injection pump timing? I'm really interested to find out if anybody's tried it and if it has any good effects or no effect or ill effect. There are...

It's good to know that others out there had the same issue LOL. I'll be calling around today to Boyce equipment Eastern Surplus and the guy mentioned in the last post. anyone got any ideas about going 2 degrees Advance on the injection pump? my local guy seems to think that would give it just...

Yeah, I have heard of this but have not been able to find the injectors or the nozzles anywhere. If I could get a part # for the nozzles or the injectors my local guy said he could get them. Idk if he is right but he told me that if the military commissions certain engine/whatever parts have to...

i have a LDS465-1a in a M54A2 (i know it's not a deuse, but more M35's have LDS's now than 5 tons like mine for hot-rodding) so, please excuse me for bending the rules. i am trying to reduce the amount of smoke produced at idle for various reasons. first, here is a list of mods i have so far...

I will heed that advice. Thanks again!

I have built a lot of gasoline turbo & N/A high compression engines, and I have retorqued many times. It doesn't hurt to retorque on my past experiences, but I read somewhere on here that it may even be not good to retorque. I would naturally default to "it doesn't hurt to retorque" even...

One more question for you doghead is: I will torque it in 4 steps to 130ft/lbs, and since I have the upgraded head gaskets, do I retorque after a few hours, or is it not required like I have read here on other posts for the better gaskets? My gaskets did not come with any torque specs or procedures.

Pretty obvious from the picture on that post that I don't have the mark. This is my engine

I found this picture. Looking like I don't have a thick deck, unless they put the mark in different places? This TM seams to indicate that it is in another location.

i have a 1966 m54a2 with a rebuild tag on the engine from 1981. i am doing the head gaskets with the upgraded integral fire ring gaskets, and i am trying to figure out if i have the "TD" mark on the block or not, so i know to torque the head bolts to 130ft/lbs or to 157ft/lbs according to the...

on a m54a2 using HEMTT wheels for 16's is the best for the front from reading here, but i would like to know how they work in the rear tandem axles? i would guess they would be a little too far inward? maybe with the rear hubs flipped might work? the moral of my issue is being able to rotate...
