Also I looked at the valley cover and it looks flat as far as i can see, has 1 raised bump towards the front but the rest looks flat. ill post a picture.
Ok, so i took valve covers off and took the fuel pump fuse out. Looked around and everything looks intact. Rockers have a little side wiggle but from what i could feel none vertically. I especially checked #8 and felt the same, little side wiggle to where i can make it "tap" but nothing more. I...
Im like 90% sure its flat but ill take a second look as soon as i get home.
Ok so once i get the valve cover off what am i looking for? Id figure broken or loose parts, marring on mating surfaces and exsesive play in parts, is there anything im missing?
I havent done valvle covers yet. That was my next step since i recently discovered oil on the side of the block. You said head gasket wouldnt be the culprit for oil on the side of the block but would it be for the misfire? Im guessing it might be a lifter but im not to familiar with these...
Piston in cylinder 8 looks ok from what i can see. Its not much but im not sure. I moved it around and looked as best as i could recording and doing that was kind of hard but i think i got a decent shot of the piston. Looks like alot of build up but looks in tack i think. Im going to have to do...
First picture is spark plug out of cylinder 4. Has a strong fuel smell and something i didnt notice last time i changed the plugs.....a bit of oil. Second picture is plug out of cylinder 8. Looks fairly the same but less soot on the plug.
Ok so i got time to do the compression test....not to good. I did a control test on cylinder 4, which is 2 cylinders forward of 8. On 4 i got around 190ish PSI ill post pictures in a bit. On 8 i got 90PSI, i syphoned a bit of oli into the cylinder and got 90PSI again. So at this point i know its...
I checked the coil when i put in new wires and plugs. Id have the truck on and pull the wire and it shot out a good inch of spark so i figured it was good. Wires are new and i swapped it after i put it in to make sure it wasnt the wire and same thing happened. Ill do compression test next. When...
Im taking pictures as i go through the process of swapping banks of injectors. Here are the injectors after i took them out. Top row is passenger side bottom is driver. They are in order as they came out so closest to the edge is ones that came out closest to firewall so top row far right is...
Ok so i finally got time to tinker with the truck. Battery dies to i had to jump it but once i got it started i read the codes and it didnt show any. I dont remember erasing them from last time but i guess thats due to the battery dieing. Anyway once i got it started o recorded a few clips to...
Im not to sure if my obll can do that i havent tried ill see if i can post a picture of it and see if you guys might be more knowledgeable than me about it. Ill see about the manual when i get back to the batcave. I will see if swapping injectors from banks will move it.....im always open to...
hello, i have similar issues. A friend had the truck when the issues initially started. She describes a ticking noise at idle as well as while in drive. she drove it like that for a while against my recommendation. She was on a road trip when loss of power and a cloud of smoke came from the...
