yes that could cause a big lose in pressure best way i have found to find air leaks is to tee in a air your tanks up to 70 or so to give you a little time then get you a spray bottle full of soap and water and spray down every connection and tubing while listening for air...
stupid question but have you checked to make sure the gauge is right best way would be to use a Ir thermometer ( non contact ) i have had that problem to but mine was the other way got hot in like 20 sec
197thhhc they are a work horse and i bet if youll put some better pistons and rings then they would have probably hit 150000 to 200 easy and how many engines could youll go thru before rebuilding the turbo ?
true actually there is very little difference between the 6.2 and 6.5 the turbo and the ELECTRONICALLY controlled injection pump and a small change in injector pop off presser and you have the same engine
and only reason cummins is got much better is cause of the inline setup
btw i own 5 6.2s and am proud of them too and the reason they cant hold more then 7 is cause of the gaskets and how it is set up but actually they dont have many problems with the sidewinder kit on them cause as long as you dont go crazy or keep your foot in it till you hit 1200 degrees...
