I'm gonna try to a detailed write up for swapping an IP. I know this is all in the "TM" but I have done many many 6.2 IPs so I got it down to about just under 2 hrs if the new IP is sitting next to me ready to go on. today was not a 2hr day...
So the symptoms were hard starting if the truck sat, low power lot's of smoke under any kind of acceleration and fuel around the throttle shaft. yep, she was done. So I got a reman from a guy I know who does them on the side....Guess he had a bad day. The reman IP was a dud and I needed the truck back asap so I ripped i back out and put a used one on I had from something else. it runs mint now. a DB2-2829 4544 is the preferred IP for a J code but in reality any 6.2 DB2 will work just fine. The used one I put on was a 4875 off a 90 V2500 Burb.
So the pics are pretty self explanatory but I'll try to do posts explaining each step. This will probably take me a few nights. I have lots of pics.
