Oil anaysis kit ordered. Thanks. Vac guage set aside for me at the parts store.

That's good stuff. On the dipstick it looked clear. Ill dtop the pan tomorrow.

My 4L80e in the Hummer just started acting up.... No codes. Works fine cold. When warm looses OD, then third. Then starts slipping in first and second... Fluid is fresh one year ago. 100 000 miles. Dipstick is showing fluid. Strangely there is loads of rust at the top of the dipstick....thats...

Yup...

Im sitting on a tig welder and have a CNC mill and lathe in play. Its definitely not bolt in. Im more concerned with viability of the turbo itself as opposed to fitting it. I pulled it mostly apart to measure the turbine wheels today. Getting the center section away from the cast Iron exhaust...

Nice to hear. Mine is the pressure pod actuated wastegate that is looped to the charge side. Ill see if it looks like I could vacuum actuate it. I have a DS4 and like how my Leroy Supertune controls boost. The variable vane is amazing. I've been watching them. There are a few stand alone...

I just picked this up (for Free!) And was considering it for my 6.5 TD. Im definitely foido a turbo update and likely a 4" exhaust in my Hummer. And a intercooler is coming into play. My question is - what is this turbo in relation to the HX 35 snd HX 40? I like free! Im opening it up tomorrow...

Sold. To a really cool prohect.

Still here, lol. Pm me. Sandy

I looked briefly at those. Nice tidy stuff but they are replacing a 1/4 hp electric motor to cool a gasoline engine. My hydraulic motor is replacing a massive diesel driven fan that likely steals 15hp from my engine.

Thankfully Cummins pattern fans are plentiful. I have 3 in progess now of varying blade counts and styles.

Im checking the mounting kits out. Nice. Navigating the list to identify a 6.5 TD is a little confusing. I do want a piston pump. The Vickers is used and free to me from the local hydraulics shop that is helping me calculate and balance (and browse their back shelves) the system though. I'm...

Thats what I was starting to look at as I hijacked a snowplow thread about a day ago. Power steering pumps run about 3-4 GPM and 1100 psi. A hydraulic motor needs more like 15 GPM and 3000 psi. I need a dedicated pump. Im looking at the Vickers V10 series by Eaton. They are a vane style pump...

Though not specific to the bus I got mine from this is the basic layout of a hydraulic fan setup.

The bus stuff is old technology. But hard to track down components for. Buses seem to have pricy components and are built with running changes and custom parts everywhere. This is the basic mold for my new fiberglass shroud tsking shape.

Plus I can lay my Rad back EVEN further and make room for an intercooler. Most Hummers need a 2+ inch lift to make toom for this. I already have 17" ground clearance. Plus I dislike lift kits.

The bus got me a nice hydraulic motor. Matching fan, most of the hoses and a Tandem hydraulic pump. The pump is not very useful. 2 pumps in one. Massive. Long. And gear driven from the timing gears of the cummins. The motor is the score. Its matched to the fan. Runs at an idle speed and has a...

Ive been through nearly every variation of cooling upgrades to try and get a 6.5 TD in a Hummer to keep cool while working. Balanced Waterpump, Tanked Radiator, new pressure cap, Kennedy early engagement fan clutch, Duramax fan. Even a wired up fully 100 percent locked fan. Its a basically stock...

I was looking at that setup. The pump needs to run at crank speed. It will need a pulley similar to the crank or power steering. That's fairly big. My latest thought is double up the power steering pulley and put the pump between the ac and power steering. Ill start a new thread with my...
