    2006 Jetta TDI timing belt replacement

    I did one of those brm timing belts before but also with a new camshaft and cam followers with cam bearing inserts from eBay.The cam lobe wiped out next to the timing belt sending metal grit into the oil. I do know having the proper vw tools to lock the crank in place is critical.I bought a...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    If I do come across anything for the 88-94 trucks I’ll certainly post it for you guys.I had a 93 at one point but it had the bench seat.

    This morning on eBay I purchased a driver side seat foam pad for my 96 gmc truck.I redid the seats back in 2014-15 with new tan vinyl covers,armrest,headrests,etc but at the time the driver side foam pad wasn’t in the greatest of shape but I plan to fix it soon with this new replacement.Total...

    The Sparta pump only cost $80 delivered and the regulator is $99 US bucks which isn’t bad either.The jic fittings are sold separately which I can buy here locally but the mounting bracket comes with it.I also have a small fuel pressure gauge I can thread into the regulator so I can adjust it...

    From rockauto this evening I bought a Sparta/delphi electric lift pump for my 96 gmc with the 6.2.I just need to find a proper mounting clamp to fasten it to the chassis.The Sparta is part number pn5000 from a 99 7.3 powerstroke F350 that delivers 43 psi so I’m going to run a diesel rx brand...

    Yes it looks pretty good.Although lots of dirt and grime over everything since I installed the engine back in 2014-2015.

    Morning everyone.Here are the finishing touches regarding the wiring for the fuel pressure gauge.I used 3 fuse taps which turned out pretty good.I had to use some permatex liquid electrical tape I found at Napa on the small gauge wires after I crimped and heat shrinked them going into the fuse...

    I’ll get some pictures for you tomorrow.I didn’t get a chance today to get into the shop where the truck is.

    That would be wonderful if a conversion fitting was possible to find.Sure would make things much easier.

    I think it will be tough trying to get a crow foot in there so I’d probably double wrench it instead to give it a little more leverage.Then you should be okay.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Ok.Sorry to hear about that.The torque on those bolts is not much.Its only 18ft/lbs which isn’t a whole lot.Be sure to loctite those.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Sure that’s not a problem.Basically the lower intake is from a F code engine so no EGR passage to worry about.This truck used to have EGR but I wanted the F code intake instead.I kept the solenoids plugged in and capped off the vacuum line that used to go to the EGR valve. I bought a 3 bolt...

    I have a 01 duramax fan blade on the way along with a 98 Hayden fan clutch to go on my 96 gmc but tighten the bolts firmly with a wrench and you’ll be good to go.Apply loctite if it makes you feel at ease as well. Sure.No problem at all on posting a link.I’ll probably buy a raptor in a few...

    Perfect.Thank you👍 Looks like the raptor is what I’ll go with.I read they have a built in regulator that can be adjusted so that sounds really good.

    Here’s the finished product from earlier.All painted up and good to go.There was a couple holes in the firewall to begin with so I used one of those with a grommet to prevent chaffing.Just a matter now of upgrading to a better lift pump.I was told the raptor is really good so I’ll definitely...

    Sounds great.How much output do you have at the injection pump?

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    I’m also using two fuel filters which perhaps is causing a lower output with the primary being 14 micron and the secondary a racor 2 micron.With that said I still need a much better lift pump anyway.I hear good things about the carter P4601 but what do you guys recommend these days?Also in my...
