    My m1028 won't start after it has been warmed up.

    Exact same thing happened to me, exactly. My IP was bad. Had it rebuilt and truck runs great.

    Low idle in drive when stopped?

    Well I figured it out. I have an aftermarket throttle cable and it must have stretched very slightly. That day I did drive from Phoenix to Flagstaff on the I17 and it is all up mountain grades. I had it floored a lot, but never over 3200 rpm. I bent the bracket upward that the cable connects...

    Low idle in drive when stopped?

    My normal idol is 650. In park and neutral, a steady 650. If you shift into drive or reverse and just sit there and hold the brake, it will go down to 550, 525. Does not die just slows down. High idol works, it comes on then the truck is cold and goes off when warmed up. This is after I...

    Db2 IP rebuild vs purchase new/refurb

    I bought a supposed re-built unit from Pensicola fuel injection. I did not have to send a core in. The unit they sent me was from a Van. It ran ok, but did the no start when hot. I luckily had my original pump and had it re-built locally and the truck has never ran better. You never know...

    Now this PPG document says it is ready to spray, but I don't have PPG paint. http://www.ppg.com/corporate/governmentsolutions/SiteCollectionDocuments/53039TypeII.pdf I'll keep looking.

    What ratio are you thinning Sherwin Williams CARC MIL-DTL-53039D ?

    I have the SW reducer, but the counter guy could not find the mixing ratio. I can't seem to either. 5 to 1 worked OK, but I think I could do better.

    What ratio are you thinning Sherwin Williams CARC MIL-DTL-53039D ?

    I used 5 to 1 last time and the guy at SW said they typically use 6 to 1. What have some of you used and what have you found to work best? You can still buy this paint at a SW "Product Finishes" Chemical Coatings location. There is one in Phoenix. Thanks-

    M1009 - Can anyone recommend a repair shop in Arizona?

    Pro Diesel made my truck run perfect, they had the IP pump rebuilt here in Phoenix and replaced the injectors. They were the best out of any of the other shops I went to. I can't say if they are cheap or expensive, but they were the only ones I have used that did it right...
