Hey yall,
I'm new to the diesel scene, and I was recommended this place by a friend of mine, I'm hoping to gain knowledge on my motor to help prolong it's life
I own a 1990 Chevy K5 Blazer which has the 6.2 Diesel Engine in it, the motor itself was swapped out from a donor 1985 K5 and thus has relatively low mileage (75K)
The swap was professionally done by a shop, so it wasn't hacked together, it has a spin on fuel filter, new glow plugs, and it also has the ATS Turbo Kit on it. I also recently bought a fluidampr to take care of the harmonic balancer issue.
The only major thing I've done so far is replace the transmission as it went out on me, I had a custom one built by Gearstar, originally it was supposed to be a built 700r4, however issues arised on their end and im now getting a (custom built) stage 3 built 4L60E (which I can't link due to being a new user, but fairly easy to find on Google)
Below I'll show a photo of my engine bay, along with paperwork showing the work done on it but I hope to gain knowledge from this site on how to keep my motor running as it is my Daily Driver, any tips, advice, etc would go a long way! Again, thank you all!
