    Has this happened to anyone? (oil cooler lines)

    I have fuse half way down that line but it is no where close to the battery. I am going to be changing that now. I definitely lucked out that I caught it in time.I found a few other places where I found some chafing as well. So i would definitely be looking over your rigs to make sure the wires...

    Ok..... So i finally got the parts I needed and found the issue. I have a hot wire going from the front battery to the rear of the truck to charge my batteries off the alternator.

    Has this happened to anyone? (oil cooler lines)

    I have an external oil cooler on my truck the lines come from around the oil filter on the engine.

    Has this happened to anyone? (oil cooler lines)

    So i was driving over this mountain pass yesterday on a forest service road and I noticed my radio started to turn on and off when it got bumpy. Thought it was a loose wire or something so i pulled over and looked under the dash. Nothing seemed loose. I said screw it, ill figure it out later...

    M1010 possible blown engine?

    The 6.5 is what i was thinking about for ease of swap and cost effectiveness. I dont necessarily mind the 6.2 when it ran just want it running and not sure exactly what is wrong with it. It is above my skill set at this point. Apparently it was the whole time since I probably ****ed something...

    M1010 possible blown engine?

    Been having some trouble with the M1010. About a month ago cut out on me and after a bunch of different tests found out it wasnt getting fuel to the injectors somehow. At first I thought it could be the mechanical fuel pump which are known to go out so I bypassed it and put in an electric fuel...

    m1010 Stalling/ Wont go over 5mph

    So i decided to bypass most of the fuel system and go straight into the injector pump. I used a bottle full of diesel and gravity fed the diesel using clear lines into the injector pump. I also put a clear line on the return line of the injector pump. I noticed two things when I did this. One...

    m1010 Stalling/ Wont go over 5mph

    Whats the best way to measure the psi after the fuel filter? And to be honest i don't think its that because when i undid the outlet hose it would hold a steady stream out into the cup i was holding under it
