    Gas pedal is sending gas to engine with out pressing it.

    Nope, the Camshaft spins the IP, the optic sensor in IP reads the rotation, sends that signal to ECM which takes that information, along with atmospheric pressure, temp, and the input from your foot thru the APP. It then computes which timing and fuel curves are optimum for achieving what your...

    Has anybody TRIED AN ELECTRIC FAN SET UP IN A 6.5? i NEVER FOUND ANYTHING sEARCHING

    Electric fans do not work with any load at all, or at elevation. Been tried over and over. At idle, in traffic, AC on, different story. Some guys have tried them in conjunction with mechanical, with mixed results... Some good, some not so much.

    It will be his 95, Leroy. Same one as the other thread. commander 502- click on the signature link in MY signature, and set your signature up. That will REALLY help. Jim

    Why do I still not have power????

    Nope, but if you don't have one, you REALLY need to be a 6.5 expert. Almost anyone can set timing close enough to run... With a 95, you put the IP within a range and set the computer to handle the signal. If the guy who set yours didn't have the equipment to handle the second part of that...

    Why do I still not have power????

    If it wasn't set by somebody who understands this engine, I hope your right nut is up to doing the job by itself. IP timing with a DS4 needs to be set not only physically, but electronically (your PCM needs to recognize and properly modify the optic signals back through your PMD to control...

    Why do I still not have power????

    The first questions I asked were trying to discover a timeline of events. In what order do the following things happen? a- tires break loose b- timing is set to -1.94 using a Tech-2 and correct procedure c- 31" tires exchanged for 33" tires d- GM-4 exchanged for HX-40 e- new motor installed f-...

    Why do I still not have power????

    Hmm. Timing is tricky to set on these, if the mech isn't familiar with them. That's why I asked. You should gave had the same performance with the new engine, if settings the same. the hx40 won't spool properly with stock chip. Hard to get it to brake stand and light off without more fuel...

    Why do I still not have power????

    Ssdiesel is meh. Better to call up slim shady or Leroy diesel. (Burning Oil) Really. You have a much different turbo map than what Walt's (ssdiesel) tunes are for. Trust me; I know the guy who makes them for Walt. Also willing to bet your timing is off. when your tires last spun, were...

    intermittent glow plugs????

    Fill out your signature so we can see what's been done. Glows can stop working for a number of reasons. Check the fuse, make sure contacts are clean, follow wiring and make sure no shorts or open grounds.

    Why do I still not have power????

    Fill out your signature so we can see what you have. If it did break a year ago, what have you changed since then? Tires? Turbo? i also don't see a chip listed; I doubt you are spinning your tires with a stock chip.

    first start of the year,..no oil pressure?

    Filter media was significantly different when I cut them apart, Simon... about half the surface area (folds) in the Fram. (at that time). I've picked up new filters in the store, one in each hand, and been amazed at the weight difference between a china filter and a napa or purolator, for...

    first start of the year,..no oil pressure?

    Cut one open, Simon. Cut open an ACDelco off the same truck. I haven't used a FRAM filter since I did that, about 20 yrs ago. Maybe they're better now, but somebody else can find that out.
