So to start off this will be long winded! And if anyone is still with me at the end I really appreciate any input. So to start off my truck is originally a 2004 ccsb lb7 federal truck. Had the head gaskets start leaking and on top of that I needed injectors as well so I decided to convert my...
So not sure if this is what you were talking about. But calculated fuel rate in park is between 7.2-8.1 and in Drive is 11.4-12.3 are those numbers within spec?
I looked for the rub hole from the power steering lines and the boots and tubing. I’m going to do a leak down test this weekend. I’m hoping it’s a hole in the intercooler that I just can’t see or find.. The fuel filter I change every or every other oil change and I change my oil about every 6k...
So I have come to summons the gods. I’m in desperate need of help. My truck is a 2004 CCSB lb7 FED with 250k. Cold air intake 3” turbo mouth piece. Baton compressor wheel Boost increase valve and off the shelf edge tuner. I’m lifted on 35 nitto mud terrains. So the story goes I use to get 18-19...
I know this topic was covered years ago. But I haven’t been able to find any current reviews of the two. I now the duramax tuners 64 was having a lot of premature failures a few years back. But I can’t tell if the problem has been fixed? The cheetah turbo from what I have read has been pretty...
War wagon thanks for the reply!i haven’t been on in awhile. So my buddy owns a shop and he didn’t a quick scan with his tech 2. He didn’t have much time to actually look at it. And I read the ferms posts about balance rates and honestly it confused the shit out of me. I need to read it again...
Ok. I had read that you generally won’t hear injector knock at idle. Thank you for that info! This is why I love this forum! Real knowledge from people who know their shit!! Thank you again sir!
DO you generally hear the injector knock at idle?? I can hear a definitive knock under the truck and beside it at idle as well as all the way up through the rpms
Thank you ferm. I️ figured that unplugging the injectors wouldn’t work. Did an oil change and I have no sparkles in the oil or on the filter element inside the filter so figured is not rod knock. The knock I could hear at all rpm including at idle. I️ did not know about the tech 2 scanner thank...
Thanks you Marty for the reply!! Believe got it figured out. Did some trouble shooting and it seems there is a short somewhere in my harness. I️ switched #8 injector with #3. Trying to trouble shoot the injectors. And checked my balance rates again. Now it’s showing #4 is high. Didn’t touch 4...
This has been a covered issue but can’t find the exact issue been having. I️ have an 05 lly that has been getting a knock. It honestly sounds to me like rod knock though I’ve heard that’s rare on duramaxs. I️ know for sure it’s not a broken crank. The part that makes me think it’s a rod is is I️...
Finally got her fired up with the used injectors. Runs smooth! I’m going to do an injector cleaning anyway just so I know it’s done. But can’t actually drive it. Throwing a glow plug #7 and po700 with range shift inhibited the stupid scanner I’m borrowing won’t read anything else. Im going to...
So finally found the fittings for the radiator. Ther were metric 21 with idk what thread pitch I️ Forgot. So frustration has set in so taking a bit of a break. Probably only a week to two weeks. But I️ did score this beauty for only 4K. It’s a theft recover. Stolen bumper and injectors. Think I...
Ya gotta give them a call. I’m going to use a -10 male to male to bypass the cooler in the radiator for now. Till the fleece ones are ordered. Unless the local earls has them.
Well ****. Installing the new radiator and the fleece performance lines won’t go into the new radiator. So I gotta but a new adapter for the new radiator. When you unscrew the quick connect nothing else holds the cooler in place. Here’s the crack in the old one.
Well not much development at all. My new job is killing me. 12-14 hour days 6 days a week. I ended up having to send my truck to a shop to get brake lines bent. I just don’t have the time now and was getting way too frustrated trying to do it myself. So I sold out. And I finally got a back...
So I have videos but can’t post them here. They are still too big apparently. I even tried the YouTube app but it causes a glitch in my phone and freezes it. Any other ideas? But this weekend I topped off the trans and put coolant in it and actually ran it up to Temp. Also bled the hydroboost...
