Almost there went with an improved billet front torque converter and I think I might have saved the trans. This oil looking like a cherry dr. Pepper. It was dark with a tinge of red. But its almost good. No the onky thing that is needed is to unstuck the trans dip stick. It got wedged in the...
Yeah saw the video and ibguess i did it right lol.
The lifter is the standard ls7
The tool is 6.8
The per load is .05 right
And the tool was 10.5 turns.
So 6.8
+ 5.25
+. .05 preload
= 7.375
Hey guys, how’s it going update on my engine rebuild I am down to checking pushrod lengths and the measurements, assuming I’m at top dead center my pushrod length is 7.37 the kit I purchased had 7.40 length pushrods. This truck engine is not gonna be race engine or a high reving. Should I call...
I'm there with you. I had low oil pressure right after doing an oil pan gasket and o ring swap. but my truck has DOD. my cam bearings and rod bearings were shot so that also game me low oil pressure. hope you don't have my luck!
I almost went down that path seeing the low low price. I found a shop around me that offered them rebuilt and with a warranty and had no issue there, still have my originals though.
My OEM had three bolts on the flex plate so its all good then ohhhh
I miss understood you but i get what you are saying now just use the on the three pertaining holes
hey guys I know somewhere on this thread someone recommended me to change the torque converter. Is a 6l90 torque converter good for this application? They seem to be cheaper than the stock 6L80 reman units everywhere I look at.
you are right they are missing the tip. Based on other pictures I see from these plugs.
Guess they were fakes, that tip should not melt away like that in less that 10,000 miles.
They were supposed to be the basic platinum oem plug.
But they very well could have been counterfeit. the gaps were all over the place and now seeing the gap widened by .035in.
The engine is purring again. I hope this was my issue now on to smog and get it tunned.
I took out the spark ugs chasing this lean condition. I measured some of them at .080!!! Twice the amount required. Its running better now still need to tune it. But hopefully this at least clears the monitors for smog!!!
the pressure is at 45-50 at start up. I might do a leak down test to see how long that pressure holds. that could help me determine if the injectors are bad.
The Pump was changed a few years back as well. along with the fuel pressure regulator diaphragm and the stupid little hope that goes to...
thank for the info, So I guess It a major rich fuel issue. I could not find my newer more detailed scanner but even my old one gave me some much valuable data My LTFT on Bank 2 is above 10% (13.3 to be exact) which i guess to much of the dark web info out there is in the rich territory. So I...
