My Blazer (6.2) originally had the 700 trans, guy I bought it from (<-original owner bought it new) did some towing & replaced trans few times to finally a turbo 400. the parts car has 350 trans.
This help?
Is there a number on diff case (front or rear) which would indicate ratios?
I have my '84 K 10 Blazer powered with the 6.2 diesel.
I have an '84 K 10 Blazer parts car with 350 gasser powered (<-blown head gasket, paid $300)
Question: Do these (diesel/gas) have the same gear ratios??
I got it (gasser) mainly for the front axle (4wd)

I have 100 +- shims I got at local picknpull yard. They had lots of ooold MB diesels, real junkers. Nozzles pitted badly. Took apart for shims. MB turbo, non t, 240's 300's, 6.2 chev, all the same diameters, holes in the middle slightly diff sizes. All bosch nozzles, all work. A few I had to...
How about a poll as to whether we have too many polls?
(not here, yet, anyway, but some forums have some pretty lame poll Q's.
(ya'll realize I'm being flip, right?!!)
Do not use ether on glow plug motors!!!
Try WD-40, its the propane used as propellent that works, use a propane torch (not lit, obviously!!).
I have a 40 yr old kubota 7200-?? tractor, never had start issues, ever. 'Course it does not get very cold here in SoCal, , , ,

Just how big a hurry are you in?? I've been driving diesels since 1979, (Rabbit diesel, a Datsun diesel), & 3 6.2 Chevs, & now my 300cd turbo Mercedes. For the most part they are underpowered (except the MB). I have just adjusted to the low power mainly getting on the freeways, the low power...
Went to the gym this morning (3:30 am).

My '84 Blazer 6.2 diesel.
Yesterday when I got in, nothing. Turn to first click, the buzzer buzzed, next click buzzer stopped, nothing, third (start) nothing. Off, & on again, nothing. Well, a few times, it buzzed on the first position, but that was it. nothing.
Batteries fairly new, 8 months...

I made a special socket for the lower lines:
Use(d) mine on my 6.2 engine, I suppose there's about as much room (or lack of) on 6.5 deez motors, , ,

I went to 'Ecology' auto wreckers & 'picked' a tach (actually the whole insturment panel) and the tach sensor and tach amplifier+base from a ('83 - '84) mercedes (123) diesel sedan, coupe, SD. Made a bracket to hold the sensor within 1/16" from harmonic balancer on my 6.2 Blazer, mounted tach...
I looked in a shop manual, it is the 'ess'. Thr manual shows it in '6.2 diesel' in engine section & 6.2 in smog section. Does not show it in trans section. Apparently its just for smog. It also turns out my '84 Blazer is actually an early '85 sold as 84. My 84 suburban & 82 PU dont have ess on...
