I no longer have the Dually. Traded it for a "Deal of a lifetime" i AM looking for another 4x4 4dr dually diesel to replace mine. i had to pull a trailer with a 3/4 ton dodge for the return trip. the trucked and turbo pulled great for most of trip. i did put a "Bar" (boost) gauge in dually...
The wastegate is tied shut !!!
i don't have power on hills.. got gauge and tied shut to see what kind of boost i was getting. best it does is 0.05 for boost
i also have simulators on the rims. one front doesn't have the round hard "ring" the lug nuts hold on. one on the drivers side does. my question is..... without the ring, the taper on the nuts with help center the tire. but... when using the "ring" (taper is now in ring) what keeps the rim...
I have a 98 1 ton dually 4x4 ext cab 6.5l diesel. been running truck for most of the summer now. every once and awhile i would get a death wobble, i go left and then back right and it would stop... or vice versa depending on traffic. today drivin home. its starting to wobble more and more now. 1...
Why would the wastegate be holding vacuum ? it pulls the arm...but doesn't seem to let go . soon as i pull the line (vacuum),the arms drops back down? i'm guessin, the vacuum pulls the arm to drop boost. well why doesn't it return when i go back to an idle?
Ok I'm still learning about diesel engines here...lol.
I don't think i am getting much or any boost. thing runs great empty, till i start up a hill with weight behind me. Starts blowin out black smoke then drops a gear and goes to a grawl. i'm talking about maybe 5k . so...until my gauge...
Another Question.....
Ok. I don't think i am getting much or any boost. thing runs great till i start up a hill with weight behind me. Starts blowin out black smoke then drops a gear and goes to a grawl. i'm talking about maybe 5k . so...untill my gauge gets here and i install it, i've been...
not trying to argue...but i replaced the injector pump AND PMD at the same time. fixed my problem. and also got a relocator for the pmd. i then installed the old PMD cause i wanted to know myself witch one it was. the old PMD worked just fine, so...i now have a space !! lol hope that helps ya.
Yes !! i love my diesel....i don't even drive my 2001 Monte Carlo SS anymore sence i got my dually going. Now if i can just figure out my loss od power i'll be all set. money is very tight as wife got laid off so trying to scrap up money of boost gauge for the truck. i can tell you there...
All i can say is that i am new to diesel's and learning as i go. lol
