You bet. I'll have to have a look and get back. Can't remember off the top of my head...

LOL. No. I did this awhile back. Touche' :lol:

Yes I did. doghead, if I took your post in the wrong light, then I sincerely apologize for my outburst. I took it as "No you didn't dude. If you did then what was the resistance?" I may have read way too much into that. Sorry.

Turns over like a gas engine now... well kinda. :)

Nice find! Congrats!

Well, gee boss, that would depend on the temperature now wouldn't it? I don't appreciate your smart alec tone. If you don't want to help, that's cool, then don't post.

That sounds like the best way to go. Having the stock system still function is the way I would prefer. It's really only a problem in the summertime when it gets pretty hot out. In the cooler months she never has an issue. I think I'll make this my afternoon project. Thanks.

I've checked the entire system out top to bottom. It works perfectly when it's cold. The more research and digging I do on this, I'm finding that it's a very common issue on 6.2s, even when they were brand new. TMs aren't helpful. I'm starting to think that the fix may be more of a modification...

I can't get to the TM section. It redirects back to the recent posts screen.

Hmmm... Now there's a thought. How much? Send me a pm or email if you get to it. Thanks!

I have the exact opposite problem. 3.08 gears = gutless wonder. Ugh...

The GP system in Tank is in good working order. I just installed brand new glow plugs, and she starts from cold perfectly. The issue I have is that if I run her then leave her sit for an hour or two, then go to start her again, she'll never turn on the plugs, and consequently spit and sputter...

It wasn't that hard. The passenger side is the hardest due to the batteries being in the way, but it didn't make things difficult enough to warrant removing the battery trays in my opinion. Lol I know what you mean about your "thought process". My Dad and I joke that we have "may as well"ed and...

I just got done putting new glow plugs in the M1009. I went with the AC 60Gs, and replaced the factory connectors with 1/4" female blade terminals. She starts like a dream now! The cycle time on the light is longer than it was before I installed the new plugs, but from what I have read that's...

Well, it's running much better now, after I advanced the timing A LOT. It's about 3/8" past the hash mark. Must be time for a new chain.

I've been working this weekend, so I haven't had any time to do more troubleshooting yet. I've been driving it to work and back though, and it hasn't done it once on the las two days. Weird!

Here's a video clip of the problem. The initial startup would be even worse, requiring a few revs to get it to clear out and idle. I pulled the dipstick tube and I am getting a little bit of smoke coming up out of it. Maybe the rings are getting weak? YouTube - ‪M1009 Smoking‬‏

Well, it's something to try. Thanks!

I'll take some video clips of it running...

I thought of that, but the thing is that since I have dual exhaust, and each bank is on it's own pipe, I should have only one bank smoking if it was an injector, which isn't the case. Both banks smoke equally. Oddly, the problem seems to be somewhat intermittent. This morning I fired it up and...
