    Lol my 1st thought oil is clear coolant hasn't moved either. And the exhaust smell to much like raw diesel. Do these 6.2l injectors give problems with them sticking?

    Air filter is New. It acts almost like it has been ran out of fuel and its not all the way primed yet. U know how a old tractor will spit and sputter then clear up then sputter till it gets the fuel up. I have put 97 miles on it since my last fill up. And I have put about 2k on it total since I...

    M988 alternator issue

    Well I used red RTV on it. I gave it a whole day to cure. I also forgot to hook up the hose on the fan, so it sprayed fluid all over the place. So when I smelled something burning I just thought it was the fluid burning off the motor. I read that wet silicone can conduct electricity. And on a...
