    Intermittent Power Loss in Engine

    So I'm wanting to upgrade my turbo, probably an HX35 or HX40. I see them for sale online but don't want to buy something that isn't configured properly. What should I look for as to specs? I've already got a used ECM to get reprogrammed, so I need to find a turbo before I program it. Regards...

    Yes, it's between the tank and the Raptor pump. I got both the Raptor pump and prefilter through Leroy diesel. You'll also get a length of 1/2" ID fuel hose and an adapter to hook it to the sending unit of the tank. I'd recommend replacing the sending unit when you do this as you'll want to...

    Good question about the fill cap. I haven't run it loose, but there is a release of pressure (vacuum?) when I open the cap... Is that normal?

    Thanks, Will. I haven't noticed any black or grey smoke when accelerating... just curious, what is the purpose of the clear return line from the IP? I'll get a fuel pressure gauge installed. We put in a new timing chain. We looked at the time keeper, but couldn't justify the expense. As for...

    Intermittent Power Loss in Engine

    Hi, All I have a 1996 K2500 GMC, extended cab long bed. 184,000 miles, 4LE80 transmission, 4.10 differentials. The truck was owned by a farm in northern Idaho, and needed a lot of "corrective action" to resolve some benign neglect. The previous owner had a new injection pump installed, but not...
