Moved up from the "Diesel Subdivision" to a "Diesel DewwLee"!! You'd think I'd learn by now says my local mechanic!!

Cool! We'll give it a try. Good to hear from you neighbor!! Let me tell you again how much I like your wiring kits!! The batt cables and the glow plug harness have worked great and the terrific personal service you gave me could not be beat! Worth every penny!! Thanks for the tranny help! Mike

Thank you so much for the info about what this problem could be and what to look for and to upgrade if we go with rebuilding this one. Also I really appreciate you confirming that the estimate is not that far off for a quality rebuild. My local shop is well respected and they've done work for me...

Thank you - it looks like a good resource.

Over the past 2 months, I noticed my Suburban was slipping into reverse more and more. 190K on it by the way but only about 14K on the rebuilt 6.5TD. Now reverse is completely gone. The forward gears / OD work fine with no slipping and I even pulled my camper last weekend (it was a bear to back...

Dorman 904-101 OE Solutions Fuel Injection Return Hose Kit $11.68 on Amazon I found the DORMAN kit today online and am placing an order for it. It comes from "Hire's Automotive" in Northeast Indiana according to Amazon.

I've searched thru the part numbers thread and found a diapaco #<?> for the return lines that go from injector to injector. Also DORMAN has a kit - but no one stocks nor can get these from the "warehouse". Lets not even talk about the stealer's price of $15 PER HOSE and $4.95 PER retaining...

Thanks Buddy - if we get a cold snap again here, I'll try it out.

I have a working lift pump again with the OPS relay mod installed. Open the valve & the fuel just pours out. Still don't hear the pump after shutdown but at least I know its working.

I found this mod while reading about how to troubleshoot sudden shutdown problems. With your help I found that the LP wasn't running as a result of a dead OPS. So I replaced the OPS and the relay in the power center as well and installed the OPS relay mod to avert future problems. In...

I just wanted to say thanks for the help - I got the Boost Bolt and it works great for the turbo boost gauge and also need to thank turbine doc for his guidance on exactly where and especially HOW to drill & tap the exh manifold for the temp gauge (with engine running and grease on the drill bit...

Troubleshooting Checklist: Problem: Explain your problem in concise language Cranks, Starts briefly then quits -blows ECM-B fuse (20A) I'm just finishing up some mods including new GP relay and harness; OPS relay mod & PMDCable ext. kit for bumper mount. If the new OPS relay is unplugged, the...

Thanks for all the advice & encouragement folks! I guess I'll get a set of gaskets and pull the intake off this weekend. A big thanks to Turbine Doc for the advice on customizing a 17mm wrench for getting to those IP line nuts!

I got o-rings from the stealer for $10 They must be really special!!

I've been working on my 'burban this past weekend. I've almost completed installing Bruce's awesome 2/0 battery cable set and glow plug harness along with a new OPS + relay mod and a new GP solenoid/relay while I had it apart. I've drilled and tapped the exh manifold for the temp gauge and I got...

I ordered both the Battery and the Glow Plug Cables last week- They arrived today and they are everything the photos show - very high quality! I hope to get them installed soon and I plan to post pics of my install in my '95 Suburban. Thanks for the quick service Bruce!

Hey Folks - I stumbled upon this site earlier this month looking for help - and I have found alot here compared with some other sites. I almost got taken by Steaksauce! What a wonderful site with great folks! Perhaps in the days to come I will have learned enough from my mistakes to be able to...

I can confirm that on my '95 K2500 Suburban, the fuel lift pump works on "F" of the OBD DLC port, not "G".

Thank you both for the advice - What are the pros & cons of pre-turbo / post turbo EGT Temp?

Please forgive if I have created this thread in the wrong place... I am installing a 3 gauge pillar-mount (EGT, Boost & Trans Temp) in my '95 Suburban and I'm looking for advice on the best way to connect them to the engine and tranny. The directions that came with the kit were way too general...
