    6.2 symptom confirmation

    I'm not sure of anything got put in it like that, I don't really see why it would be, this came from a quarry of some type and never really left the property, I'm planning on pulling injectors today and seeing when the shops open

    6.2 symptom confirmation

    #2 still has to adhere to lower sulfur levels doesent it? I've never seen coolant leave deposits like that though. There's a reputable fuel system shop over in New Haven that I was planning on going to, been there a few times now and they do excellent work. Just wanted a second opinion before I...

    6.2 symptom confirmation

    Also as can be seen, the front cylinders in each side look kinda shiny, almost fuel washed, so I'm not quite sure what's going on here, the other 6 have spot deposits and/or that yellow stuff in them. Some minor scratches in one or two cylinders but other than that everything looks great

    6.2 symptom confirmation

    As the title states I'm looking for confirmation or direction towards the issue in this diesel put of a truck I just bought. It's an 88 k30, 660 code 6.2 diesel non-egr. The truck has 70k on it and as far as I or the previous owner know it's the original engine. They sold it because it started...

    How to tell cabs apart

    I know variants of this question have been asked before but I can't seem to find the the answer I need. I'm looking at swapping the cab off my truck, an 85 K20 Silverado, with a spotless, but totally stripped out cab a friend of mine has for really cheap. Thing is, I don't know if it's a 73-80...

    6.2 diesel exhaust system

    Wouldn't that be expensive though, or do I just have no idea what I'm talking about? I figured a shop would want a hefty sum to build me a full exhaust

    6.2 diesel exhaust system

    So my truck needs an exhaust. Badly. I see they have full kits on lmc and such, but they only have them for the SB and bb engines, none for the 6.2. Would one of those kits for a SBC fit a 6.2? Or if not dido anybody know a place that has exhaust kits for these engines? Because I've been looking...

    TBI exhaust

    Of the three, which do you think sounded the best? I was thinking about getting a set of super 10s since they're pretty cheap and seem to be the most agressive

    TBI exhaust

    What's the best exhaust for a 350 TBI. It's git long tube headers with twin 2 1/2 pipes down to two raptor mufflers. I was looking into new mufflers since the raptors not only sound pretty bad but they're kinda shot. What do you guys recommend for a more agressive sound? I would just run...

    Intakes

    Are the intakes for a TBI and a carb interchangable? There's a good deal on an intake, but it's for a carb. Will my tbi bolt onto it? I can't find anything about bolt patterns and fitment, and I don't wanna waste my money if I can't put my tbi on it

    High beam issue

    The terminals are in the angled configuration. I'll have to try switching the, don't know why I hadn't tried that. It only really stumos me because they used to work fine, then one day the issue started.

    High beam issue

    It shouldn't be the bulb as I just replaced the headlight two days ago

    High beam issue

    All four of my headlights do work. However, the top two headlights are low beams. When the highs are turned on, the bottom two are supposed to come on as well. However, when I flip on the high beams, the driver's side has an issue. The top headlight turns off, and the bottom turns on. Anybody...

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    Not yet, I'm gonna do the oil change tomorrow and make sure I've got it running right first. I don't have a lot of money right now sadly so I gotta go one step at a time

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    Turns out the feed line for the fuel HS a bag gasket ring on it, a new one seems to have stopped the leak. Now all that's left is flinching and replacing the oil. What drained out was like water, so that leak must have been going on for at least a full day of non stop pouring

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    I know why it flooded but I do not know why it happened. The tank built pressure while it sat for those two days, and instead of venting this pressure, the expanding gasses forced fuel up through the pump and fuel lines and out the injector feed in the bowl tower. And since the top was off of...

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    The injector tower was open and apart when it has flooded, I had left it apart for two days while I got a new gasket for one of the injectors. It was pouring out and flooded everything because the top was literally wide open

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    I used the 454 bowls and put in my injectors, and put the top from my 350 on it. That top has a new fpr, and the gasket on it didn't leak before as it too was new

    454 vs 350 injector bowl

    I found that my injector bowl was cracked on my 87 TBI 350. A friend had a TBI off an 88 454 TBI. The injector bowls were the same size and my injectors fit into it, but it needed a taller gasket/spacer between the base of the bowls and the throttle body. It now leaks gas profusely from...

    Random idle stumble

    One issue to the next. After sorting out my fuel issue, the truck ran fine for a week. I replaced the fuel pump relay, and rebuilt the TB. Now I've noticed that once it heats up enough to get to low idle, it will randomly stumble/almost die before reving back up to idle speed. I don't have the...

    Rough idle after installing new fuel pump

    You have a carb right?

    Rough idle after installing new fuel pump

    It does exist on mine, the sending unit has 3 lines. The fuel supply from the pump, the vapor return from the catch can, and the fuel return from the throttle body for when the pressure regulator opens to maintain a certain pressure and not overpressureize anything

    Rough idle after installing new fuel pump

    Would crossing the fuel return and vapor return lines in the sending unit cause this?

    Rough idle after installing new fuel pump

    After having some help and cleaning out the fuel filter, it appears the issue may have been one injector spraying less fuel than the other. Messing with the lines by the tank so much must've stirred up some crap and sent it into the injectors.

    Rough idle after installing new fuel pump

    But then wouldn't it run like crap no matter the rpm?
