So , time for an update. I wasnt able to to get R&D to build a pump as he is swamped with the ford IDI stuff. The pump on the truck was getting so bad , that i pulled the trigger on a budget pump. My thought was how bad could it be. Well its bad. First pump showed up looking like it had been...
Picked up a different truck a while ago. its a 1993 c3500 ext cab. i bought it with really band blowby. I rebuilt a 660 with promaxx heads and a wuhaun whistler , got it put in the truck and now i have the hot long crank to start. So I am looking for a new pump, I would like around 90cc of...
I kid about selling it. I ve got to much money in it. my concern is about the poofing of fuel smoke, whatever it is coming out of the crossover port in the head. Its not supposed to be doing that, right? I just sold my powerstroke and a old squarebody suburban. Still got my old 89 dodge shortbed...
I just went through this thread and realized ive had nothing but issues with this truck. I am usually able to get stuff going pretty good. Just a rednek fixer. But holy crap . one last time , and if dont work I'll sell it. Again. Never. Its my other Lady. The wife hates it. but what ever. I've...
Well first of all Happy Thanksgiving to all. What ever your plans are enjoy yourselves . The truck is down again , got a leak on the previously replaced o ring on the advance piston nut. But while pulling the intake to get pump out I thought i would run it with the intake off. I have a mist of...
I have dont the same thing , and went with the ez-tcu . So far its been good, but im still having trouble loosing power to the pcm. I think. Anyway changed the ignition switch and it ran great for a week and cut out for a second today. Lost the speedo. I have a moose jr pump on mine, and love...
So with the advice given here I was able to get the truck running and driving with the ez-tcu. I used the crankshaft sensor and was able to get the tach signal . But as the late great Paul Harvey used to say," heres the rest of the story". When the truck quit a couple months ago , it just died...
Yeah, I get it, it's frustrating as our trip to SD is coming up and the truck is down again. I will call the tech support tomorrow when they open, and see what they say. I like the older trucks, we will be using our 95 F350 to pull the trailer up there. It's a nice truck, but it's not my k2500...
Well so still not able to get a good tach signal. Nothing off of the ess or using the rpm module in the kit hooked up to the alternator . There was a dually build on here that used the same controller with db2 swap , but no info on how he hooked up the tach . gonna let the truck sit for now, and...
So does the ess require power or produce power? What produces the signal out of the was in a stock truck.i don't know wave ,binary, Latin. I know big hammer , little hammer. my tech dept joined the army 6 years ago , so I'm in the stone ages. When I hooked up the tach signal from ez-tcu to alt...
Update. The plunger on the pump was stuck. i pulled it off and replaced the plunger and whohaa and it now works . truck runs great . Except the EZ-TCU is proving to be a pain. i had the tach signal to the alt and at idle it shows 3600 rpms . I have a ESS off my old 93 that may work? But im...
Finally got everything put back together and couldnt get the smoke to clear up. Nice diesel smelling smoke, the air is all gone but still grey smoke at idle. I have double checked the timing gears and they seem good. The one thing i have noticed is that the advance piston plunger appears to be...
Well i got the pumps switched out. Took a little bit more time than i wanted , so i still havent installed the tci controller. It looks like a nice unit, hopefully it works well. The truck didnt start right away, with the air and having the fuel solenoid wired to a fuse the wpuld drop voltage...
