Another not starting post.

Okay I haven't been able to update in a while. I put a different electric fuel pump on the truck and replaced all the lines. I bled the system, replaced glow plugs while I was at it and it fired right up. It doesn't sound too good running but I'm not sure what it's supposed to sound like. It sounds about like a bunch of people with hammers beating my motor. Now I need to put diff fluid, power steering, brake fluid and t case fluid. As of right now the truck won't move I'm any gear but that may be because it is low on transmission fluid

Jeebus man. Can you post a video with sound?

Sounds like a diesel?

 

[txhunter27]

No it sounds like a stuck valve or something in cylinder 8

Here is a link to a video of it running

I may be wrong but could it be a lifter ticking?

I hear a lot of lifter ticking in a few motors I'm around day to day do that's why I say possibly lifter.

The video doesn't do it much justice. I'll try to get a better video tomorrow

 

[CUCVLOVER]

Do you have an engine stethoscope? It looks like a regular stethoscope that a Dr uses but instead it has a long metal probe instead of the cup.
If you had one you could check individual spots to find exactly where the noise is coming from be it the head, block, injection pump imploding.
Might help might not just figured I toss it out there.

 

[txhunter27]

No I don't have one. I can tell that in the intake manifold that there is smoke and some oil splatter in there coming from cylinder 8

 

[CUCVLOVER]

Oh. OK.
Could take you out the injector and shine a light in there?
Pull the valve cover maybe?
I don't know if it will help anything or not but.........

 

[txhunter27]

Yeah I am going to pull the valve cover when I get the chance to this week

 

[CUCVLOVER]

OK.

Here is a better video. Let me know what y'all think.

you have a bad valve. you are getting blow back into the intake.

pull the covers and look or do a compression test. looks like a head rebuild is needed.

Ditto.
I second the head rebuild..

 

[txhunter27]

Does anyone have a good source for new heads?

 

[CUCVLOVER]

Are yours cracked?

 

[txhunter27]

I'm not sure yet. By rebuild what do y'all mean?

 

[CUCVLOVER]

A rebuild is like an engine rebuild. Just smaller.
You take off the heads pull the glow plugs, injectors, valves, valve springs, the whole nine yards. Then you can have the heads magnafluxed for cracks, faced and valve seats ground and polished, either replace all the valves or have the ground if you wish, and you can replace basically anything that you want or needs to be replaced in the valve train.
Or you can take to a head shop and say make it work as it should and they will.

I'm guessing you have some experience with engines?

 

[txhunter27]

I have some experience but I also like learning new stuff but this may be too much for me.
