Well after much deliberating and months of work and some unexpected circumstances I am forced to sell.... I worked really hard on it and I hate to do it but I have to. Here's how it sits. It runs great. I got all the parts put back in it and got the exhaust and trans all sealed up and it runs...

on my 6.2 I had white smoke after I re did the head gaskets, turns out i spilled coolant down the exhaust. what does the exhaust smell like? if its sweet smelling and white , its coolant, if its gray white and smells bitter sweet ish, its probably unburnt fuel. if it turns black when you romp...

ok so another update. IT RUNS!!!!!! it runs pretty good compared to the last time i started it. i had the heads gone through, they checked out fine. I put new push rods and head bolts in it. I put new injectors in it. now when i start it it kicks right off like it used to! but its getting air...

UPDATE!!! ok after another month of trying to figure it out, I took it apart again. the miss was caused by a bent pushrod. SO with that mystery solved, im going to take another crack at this. I guess I didn't seat the pushrod very well when I installed it. oops. but anyway. I solved my fuel...

OK I am officially pissed off and frustrated! i had to wait 2 weeks for enough money to buy the **** injector tool. Then i had to wait over a week for it to get here. i got it yesterday and greedily yanked out the injectors, took them to work, bench tested them and i was right i had one leaking...

when my vrv went out it stayed in second and wouldent go either way. if you really need it working, connect the two lines that go into the VRV directly together, that should give you 3rd all the time. but dont pull any steep hills. i adjusted my vrv so it shifts fairly soft. i didnt like it to...

ok so its staying in first and not going to second or third. the little thing on the side of the transmission is a shift modulator. the things on the injection pump is the vacuum regulator valve. inside that "vrv" is a spring. as you push on the throttle it opens the valve. so as you let off, it...

I can build you one or sell you mine. Which do u want?

Well after consulting the guys at work and fiddling with it tonight, I think I have a clogged injector or two. I didn't cap them when I pulled the heads off and cleaned the old gasket crap off. From what I can tell the #3 and #7 are worse than #1 and #5. Since its one side and not both sides it...

bump

UPDATE!!!! well here is what is going on currently, any help would be appreciated. I replaced both head gaskets, all the fuel return lines, the coolant temp sensor (I broke it taking out the head) I now have everything back together and got it to start, im back to the same problem if not a worse...

alright, yesterday i got may passenger side head removed, cleaned, and back on with a new head gasket. from the looks of the gasket, i was mere miles from it going legs up. 3 of the 4 cylinders were carbon scored and the gasket was looking bad. so i think it was a lack of compression. when it...

No I haven't but I'm still working on it. My head gaskets were leaking out the back so I'm in the middle of replacing them. So far I can tell that my #3 cylinder was the one misfiring on the drivers side. There was a lot of carbon build up around the exhaust valve. So since I'm doing head...

No I haven't checked those. I'll look into it.

So after much conversing with coworkers we narrowed the problem down to air in the lines.... we think. I came home today determined to figure out what was going on. I took the air cleaner off and started following the fuel lines from the lift pump to the injector pump. Tightening everything as...
