    The eurocoaches I saw had cummins in them.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Yup. Thats looks like them to me. You can have them re-use the metal part of the lines or you can remove those flare adapters and just use regular fittings and route the houses as you see fit trying to keep the hose away from the hot exhaust as much as possible and in a way that follows the...

    96 timing issue possibly

    The optic sensor and the cps work in conjunction with each other to smooth everything out. With one or the other good, it will be a hard start but will start & run. Doesn’t run great. But if you unplug one and the other is still in and it never starts or stops running- that shows the one...

    96 timing issue possibly

    The way to figure it out is just disconnect the optic and leave it that way for a couple days worth of driving. When it acts up again if it does same thing but still runs then it aint the cps. If the engine dies or won’t start, then its the cps

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    The two hoses that come out of the engine by the oil filter as described - There are replacements that are factory you can buy but many have not had good runs with these aftermarket hoses. My recommendation is to take multiple pictures of them in place so you can reinstall them later properly...

    Custom build headers

    Basically anyone considering it should check out their videos, website, etc. Not just headers, full exhaust, roll bars, roof racks, etc. they have a lot of learning tips on their videos.

    Custom build headers

    A few of us have made headers at some point. Incredible tedious. Time to look at the lowest cost kit how to make everything fit I have seen yet. Also would work for custom exhaust if they have the sizes available… https://www.centurialinc.com/exhaust-tech/starter-kit

    6.5TD motorhome starting problem

    So the spec shown shows the EP158 as a max pressure of 14psi. That is the one myself and many others have been recommending as the best version of this POOR design. I’d bet there is many people here that ran the EP158 and I also bet there is not two who said it held 14 psi for more than 4...

    My 93 having a mysterious tapping or knocking under acceleration that comes and goes

    It’s running on a tired old engine that isn’t gonna be running a lot longer. Leave it be and move on. If you can time it a little better- cool, otherwise let it ride. Flow charts available:

    97 4L80E dropping out of TC lock up

    @mannebk Tell us how you really feel and don’t hold back this time. Haha Basically it’s a money issue. I was doing amazing work for customers- I would do a rebuild engine and people cried about my price$100 more than “X” down the road throwing in a junkyard engine. Mine would be balanced &...

    Do the alternating unplug/plug test with it and the optic sensor.

    Sluggish smokey cold start - APPS gives minimal response on 1996 6.5L

    Both bosch and ac delco say you have to ship them suspect parts for inspection. Talking to bosch back when my piston was destroyed, they have to do a metallurgy test to verify if they are real or knock offs. No disrespect but there is nothing you or I can do to identify if they are real ones or...
