I had already purchased the tank because I had convinced myself that something was coming apart in the tank (I was thinking the lining was lifting up)...... I thought about returning the tank and just removing the baffle as the liner was not coming apart yet...... but then I figured it would...
So I saw this old thread come back and remembered this problem that I had....... thought I would fill out the story with what it ended up being. Will got it right on the first post (took me several years to find it......) I finally realized that Will had to be right and something was getting...
I want to say that the year break on that was later 80's like maybe 88 or 89 .... they started having the same oil pan (think it goes with the body style change....) But AK is correct that there is a year where they are the same. I went through all of this when I did the 6.2 swap into my tahoe...
Oil pan is different. I don't think it would fit a 4x4 truck but might work in a 2x4. (can't swap the pan out due to the different rear main seal AK talked about.....)
Guess I am on the fence about getting rid of the sock........ I got rid of mine a while back, then a couple years back I started having issues with the truck stalling randomly and refusing to restart. I found that if I unscrewed the prefilter I had installed it would suck air in to relieve a...
Also remember that there is an accumulator in the system. So if you are testing the theory by just shutting off the engine, the accumulator will keep pressure on the boost system for several pedal applications. So pump the pedal a couple of times real quick and then push it in to try to...
I am also using the US Shift Quick 4......... I don't think I have had as good success as n8in8or, but it has lasted me 4-5 years now and about 40,000. I have struggled getting it set up perfect and still have a few quirks that bug me, but I would be willing to take most of the blame on that for...
So my plan.... unless someone points out some reason that I have not though of as to why it won't work (or is a bad idea) ....
is to t the fuel line coming out of my prefilter and put two lift pumps in parallel. I will probably throw in another relay so that they each have their own power...
So if I remember correctly (it has been probably 10 years since I did it....) but I am pretty sure the sock in the tank is gone..... I am using Leroy's pre-filter setup with a Walbro pump (have replaced the Walbro pump 3-4 times.... can't remember for sure (last fall was the most recent time). I...
