Yes. and yes. Plus, the 4k spring will only get it to about 3400. It is just the same way the 12valve is done.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
That's a fuel plate for a P - pumped 8.3, which most 900 series are an MW-pump.Hey guys I have been doing a bit of searching. Check you this link to see what you think?http://www.bigrigpowerproducts.com/p-9372-tst-power-kit-cummins-83-6cta.aspx
I can't tell if it's just a shim for the pump or what. They make some pretty big claims in HP with the other kits
That "sludge" is algae. Need to make sure to kill it all or it will continue to grow. I drained tank completely, used pump up sprayer and sprayed gasoline in tank walls etc... let stand for a day. I also had major buildup on bottom. Let 5 gals gas sit in tank and drained. I agitated and it broke down the "sludge" and dumped out drain. Now using algae-x in tank each time we fill it to keep killing it.We had a problem with an M936, it did not have what I thougtht was enough power and after only minimal running ( just enough to move it a couple times ) it would not start. The tank had what I would describe as sludge in it. We cleaned the tank with a chain and coil cleaner, changed filters, purged the fuel lines and even put a new pump on the 250. None of which helped. Turned out it was a fine mesh screen on the injectors that were plugged. All 6 were plugged with what looked like the same sludge from the tank. We pulled one injector and cleaned it and it started on one cylinder.
Problem ended up being transfer pump stopped working. The plunger was sticking in. Changed that and runs. Turned up full fuel 2 revolutions, now idle is at 900 in neutral and 700 in gear. Now the other problem, when slowing down to a stop it stalls. Makes no sense when idle is so high. It does it every time. I have to rev accelerator at same time coming to a stop or it stalls.The fuel screw on top is for low rpm/excess fuel for a starting aid. Once it gets to a certain rpm, it goes back to factory fuel rate. The real fuel adjustment is covered on page 6. It's a pdf file you can download and print. Do those nuts and it will be happy.
One secret is to smack it from the top with a hammer. I actually dont even bother with the star wheel. You can more than make up for it with the forward screw.I put a few turns on the forwardmost top screw and have seen an improvement and a puff of smoke when I goose it. I can't for the life of me get the star wheel cover off I've tried chipping the paint off the plug etc. Is there a secret to getting it off? Is it a necessary adjustment I'm a little hazy on exactly what that one does.
If you back out the screw more, it should come out of the hole, and spool up pretty quick.I've adjusted the pre boost fuel screw on my 925a2. The truck still lugs like crazy coming out of the hole compared to my 923a1. In terms of initial power for the 8.3 is this normal? I have 4k gov springs and am planning on installing one day along with a bit of boost fuel adjustment.
