Aren’t MTR top pressure rated for 50? And on a sunny day that can go up another 6 PSI

It’s alive!!! And just in time for Halloween. She started right up after injector lines were purged. Batteries were half dead. Made no difference. Thanks again to amazing support from RWH and forum members. Special thanks to Hummer H1 for his help! Eric kicks ass. Alternator and regulator...

Sand on the turbo intake side should prompt you to open up and clean. While you’re at it, perhaps pull the 400 amp and swap to a 200amp alternator.

For future reference

I know some have done that. I’m not sure if I’m up to the challenge. EDIT Jan 10-2024 - In retrospect after having performed an IP swap, NDT is absolutely correct. Loosening the injector lines at the engine and then removing the pump might be easier than fiddling with the injector lines at the...

Just thinking… Your joining this madness is either a great thing, or a really bad thing. LOL. Don’t get frustrated and take it out on us. We can’t afford to lose the forum. 🤣

Things learned so far: Open the IP on all new-to-me trucks. If it is frozen, just replace it and keep the unit as a core. Spray clean the snot out of the engine, especially the valley before removing the heads. Made things super easy to see and prevents sand falling into the intakes. Loosen...

I HAVE the military antilock brakes. Is there a different procedure to bleed them?

Wear breathing protection. CARC is cancer causing.

It will be fun having you actively participate on this part of the forum.

A modicum of success. Now to get the new one in.

Received IP. Engine is full of external sand. Will power wash tomorrow. IP itself is loosened with 6 lines of the 9 removed. Gonna make a hole and tap the crossover in anticipation of water injection while the intake manifold is off. Gonna tap another for boost pressure sensor.

IP external nuts are removed. Three internal bolts removed and the timing gear is clocked properly. Tomorrow we will remove injector lines and fuel inlet line. Looks like time to pull the intake manifolds. 😖

It’s more like the frustration of a kid waiting to open his birthday presents BUT the birthday is a week away. This IP was toast years ago. I was warned when I purchased this non-running vehicle that the IP was probably shot. It was worth a chance trying to get it going in order to save $2000...

He did. I was hard headed. 😂

Pics of what to do when you strip a hex head… Dremmel mini-disk to rip a straight line across the top of the stripped head, then use a flat head to twist out.
