    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    Compression test was going very well until cylinder 7, 280 PSI at best. Others sitting at 360-380. Maybe a valve?

    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    Update - I'm a clown :o). Pink wire was going to cold advance, and green wire to shut off solenoid. Now it sort of runs! But with a ton of white smoke and serious trouble idling. Played around with IP timing, didn't seem to make too much of a difference. Doing a compression test next...

    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    Entirely possible I mistook the slot for the round hole, I'll have to check that out. I'll check for 12V on solenoid, check fuel pressure, and then maybe I'll do a cylinder compression test. All else fails, I think I'll just call a mobile diesel mechanic. I can spend $500 of my time for nothing...

    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    I'll check the voltage. That's the pink wire right? I can see fuel shift a little in the clear tubing when I turn the key/connect the spade. Also hear a quiet 'click' @ IP.

    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    That was one of my first thoughts too. But yes, pin is in slotted hole. Probably wouldn't even start poorly like it has if wasn't.

    6.2L - new IP, still won't start

    Hi all, got a '84 K3500 with 6.2L Detroit that I just can't seem to get to start. Here's what I've done so far. Bought it off someone, didn't run, he reckoned it was the IP. I put in a new starter, fixed the glow plug circuit, put all new glow plugs, cleaned injectors with brass brush and...

    Can't separate SM465 adapter from NP205 TCase

    It took an extraordinary amount of force. Used a bearing separator and 5 ton puller. The finding? Somehow the coupler is thicker tcase end. Like .27" compared to .25". Bought a new input shaft as a precaution, though it doesn't look too bad.

    Can't separate SM465 adapter from NP205 TCase

    Coupler on there tougher than a son of a gun, think I'll get me a puller set tomorrow. I got a bearing puller in there right now because there's a convenient retainer groove on the inside of the coupler, but it's not even close to enough force.

    Can't separate SM465 adapter from NP205 TCase

    I think you're right. I wound up threading a bolt and nut against the tcase. It popped the seal out on the adapter, but now I can see the coupler lol. Thank you!

    Can't separate SM465 adapter from NP205 TCase

    Hi all, Tcase seems to be stuck to the coupler inside the adapter? Need some help on splitting the two for a rebuild.
