I'm tracking fuel issues with my 998 with a 6.2. I have replaced the mechanical pump and now up to the injection pump. I believe the solenoid is bad so going to replace it. Are these available locally? special order? I've seen a few on EBay but not sure they can be trusted.
what should I...
Currently attempting to replace the mechanical fuel pump in my 998 with a 6.2 l. Is there A trick to getting the push rod back up in the block? It seems stuck
I had posted earlier about inquiring about shelters. What kind are they etc. A member inquired about availability and the post was deleted. If that is against the rules, how does someone go about getting information on different equipment.
I posted previously about my 92 998 with the stock 6.2 having a non start issue after the freeze in February. I checked fuel pump, power to IP, glow plugs etc and everything checked fine. I checked the batteries and they tested out at 12.1 volts and 12.5 volts. I assumed that if the batteries...
OK, I have a 92 998 A2 that is completely stock, 6.2 L motor that would start flawlessly since purchased. It would sit for a month or two sometimes without being started but it would still start with no issue. After the freeze in February, I"m in S. Tx., the truck refuses to start. I...
My 998 with a 6.2L motor will not start after the freezing weather in February. I've been told that it could be that the fuel gelled in the system and I should replace the filter. I planned on doing it anyway and for simplicity sake for future changes I was thinking about changing over to a...
I removed the cover on the back of the hub to install the Blue Hummer spindle nut kit. I cleaned both mating surfaces and used the black RTV and after two days I noticed fluid leaking from the cap. I removed it, cleaned it and reset it and it leaked again. I read somewhere that making a...
The screws that hold the soft door latches to the body are stripped. One is actually broken. I'll probably use a chisel or similar to remove the head and then ez out the screws that remain in the latch plate. Any other ideas to make this easier?
Also, I replaced the outer seal on my front rt...
Is there a write up or article on removing the door blanks on a 998. I wanna concert to a 4 man setup. Also, I’ve read where the rear bulkhead is optional. Yes? Also, what does the bottom of the rear curtain strap to?
Thx
Recap,
spindle nut came off and the front rt tire decided to depart the vehicle. I got a new spindle, bearings etc and ready to reassemble. or so I thought. In the schematic it shows what appears to be a spacer before the large outer bearing on the spindle. I had the bearing pressed off and...
I just purchased bearings etc from this company. Good customer service and fast shipping but know that they add a shipping charge on after giving you a final price.
I was told my total would be X and then received a invoice with S&H charges added. Not opposed to paying the charges, They...
I found the timken bearing numbers for the spindle but it shows 3 bearings. I need the inner and outer one. The numbers I g
Found are below.
Which ones do I need?
LM104949. Or
3780. Or
3490. Should I replace the races too?
Thx
A few weeks ago I was driving down the road doing approx 45mph when my front rt tire decided to take a detour. From my understanding the locking washer was not installed properly which allowed the bolt to back off therefore letting the wheel to set itself free. I purchased a new spindle as the...
I finally found out what the vibration was on my 998. While going to a meeting yesterday morning the front rt wheel decided to depart from the vehicle. Turns out whoever performed the last maintenance on it did not use the locking tabs on the washers to lock in the nut. The threads are a...
This may sound like a dumb ? but , with the cost of antenna's these days, how are you securing them to your rigs to prevent them from being stolen? I realize that just removing them solves the problem and I'm OK with that but was wondering if there was another option?
Thx
