    6.5 Turbo no boost

    I recently replaced the cat on my truck after inspecting it with a scope. Decided to see how bad it was and if it would be possible to remove it, clean it and reinstall. Here is what it looked like. Best performance upgrade yet.

    Bringing non-runner M1165A1 REV back to life!

    DCP sells parts …your pump works, but you light load advance is stuck. Could be a simple fix.

    Bringing non-runner M1165A1 REV back to life!

    Try DCP 901-343-6453, but I would cover the inlet and outlets and wire brush or soda blast the case...get it clean... then take the 2 side caps off, then the bottom bolt, see if you can clean what you have up or if its needs replacement parts.

    Lost all my lights...

    it's been a few years ago, but I lost all my lights while driving at night when I hit the Hi Beam/low beam switch on the floor. May have just been the headlights, but replacing the switch solved that problem.

    Bringing non-runner M1165A1 REV back to life!

    I am not 100 sure, but I think if you remove the return fuel line off the top of the injection pump and put a longer piece of fuel line on it and run it into a catch can, that would simulate open check valves...if that works..then dig into the check valves. Then, Check to see if the small pin...

    Possible IP solenoid “sticky”?

    Sounds like the timing advance plunger is starting to gum up. Not frozen yet but occasionally sticks in, then slowly releases. Double check by manually engaging the throttle at the pump and watching the pin at the bottom of the pump. If the pin is moving freely this is probably not your...

    I would also disconnect the exhaust before the cat and see if it runs any better.

    Bringing non-runner M1165A1 REV back to life!

    Hopefully you have oil pressure and good compression on all cylinders. If you do I would check the fuel system. Maybe injectors. Could also be injection pump or timing (lots to check on the injection pump) . Did you drain the tank and start with fresh fuel? Did you change the fuel filter...

    DIY Doors

    post a pic of your m1167 ( both sides). It probably has all the components removed to use flat door. (maybe not). if it has been stripped the base truck can use regular x doors, soft doors or custom door of the standard (not flat) shape. All the m1167 and m1167a1 truck sold on GP in the...

    Check up near your trans dip stick, you should see 2 wire that come out of the bulkhead near the coolant lines that go to the heat exchanger.

    Items you normally check 1st and need to repair and or replace?

    Are the dip stick accurate on ECV trucks ?

    Confirming that the dip stick is measuring the correct depth of fluid in the pan should be ruled out. If everything else is done right, maybe somebody swapped out the dip stick from something else or ??? 99+ percent it was correct off the line. Only way to rule this out is droop the pan and...

    Are the dip stick accurate on ECV trucks ?

    I would drop the pan again and calibrate the dip stick. Can’t see why this would only be relevant to ecv
