Yea need to measure for sure. I also corrected my post for some reason my math or proof reading was off. I said 1/2'' but changed it to 1/4''. For you kids out there 3/8's minus 1/8's is 2/8's or 1/4. Stay in school or home school and drive your parents crazy.
From what I read the 3116 is a finicky Cat. Does not like to be lugged, miss treated or chased by Dogs. I believe you are over looking the problem that is Oxygen. Oil additives or cetane booster is not going to solve that problem. Same as if we go to higher altitudes we can get sick as does the...
Well is that is just not just about what my 2009 Duramax has. The computer takes care of all that and I have no waste gate. My turbo vanes are computer controlled plus I have EFI live with five selections. Yea running max fuel and timing here in FL. I can bring down the EGT's buy going up on the...
Guess you are a pilot and correct. But in the case of any mechanical injector engine in our older MV's would seem all we can do is if there is a altitude adjustment book then we just have to set it per specs to what alt. we plan to run at. Not what the pressure altitude is that day we want to...
Frank Curiosity may have killed the cat but operating a 3116 Cat above Max. Alt without fuel change will kill the Cat even quicker. You must reduce the amount of fuel. I would guess there is a manual for how many 1000 feet you want to operate above sea level. I would also bet the way our fuel is...
Good to know but disagree with might not notice power loss I believe you would. So for Smitts & giggles I called my local Cat dealer. He quoted 1K to run over head. Now if I did not say it I do not no Cat's or what it takes to run over head. I heard of tools that will drain you pocket. Now I do...
Not on my truck right now but was wondering why all my dirty laundry were on the ceiling the other morning. I thought is was on the GOOD meds I was on. On a side note to that even though stock M37 mine anyway going slow ( 35 mph ) can be fun because of all the looks she gets. Sure you will have...
Thought someone found the OEM replacement on the thread I posted. Is the one Wess you are talking about a direct replacement. Ours is 24 volt and works with the fording switch to shut off engine fan if it is running when fording. Also mine shuts off engine cooling fan but turns on my rear aux...
Just picked up this NATO cable set up and it has just about 9 feet of cable. My truck just has the block off plate on the drivers side now. A pic of my battery box for those who like pictures. I have to decide how run the cables. Thought about running Pos. to the starter and Neg. just to the...
I guess this is tire snot. Directions call for this tub to be mixed with 4 gallons of water but I never do. I use it straight for O ring, tire bead and grommet. Make sure grommet is centered with it's shoulder in the wheel valve stem hole and tighten good.
I just went to check my tires that I...
Yea I think someone said along time ago to use a wooded dowel to tap a stuck plunger loose. I have a Head here in the office but I do not know how far to compress the spring to measure it. Would seem to do it right the head needs to be installed and IP spun over to see how much lift the cam...
I believe the problem with that is plunger will still move if the clip failed and timing button fell off. We need someone to measure how much movement there is when correct and how much when we have clip / timing button fails to stay connected. Just guessing without measuring the timing button...
