    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Yeah, he said he just moved it around a couple times I believe.

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Okay....What do you guys make of this? And do you think this could have contributed to my liner/piston problem, or maybe this happened as a result of the piston/liner problem, or just something entirely unrelated? The top half of this thrust washer, or whatever it's called was located in the...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Okay, got the head off, and the piston and broken liner out. Still not entirely sure what happened, but it appears that something bad happened....:popcorn: Ha ha. But seriously..... Now that I examine the parts real closely... I can see that there is a lot of gouging to the inside of the...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Well here's what I found. Dropped the oil pan this evening..........and discovered that sure enough, only the bottom section of the Number 6 cylinder liner broke off, so I did not have a wild, uninhibited connecting rod and piston bashing around in there. I am so incredibly relieved! All of...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Well, the truck got delivered this afternoon. Went great! Used an air hose I made up to charge the air brake system using the delivering trucks air system so that we could offload safely with foot brake even though the parking/driveline brake was working good. Then used my Chevy Suburban to...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    I'm really hoping something like that happened and that the block is okay. That would be very nice. But what scares me, is because I also was able to pull through the oil drain hole, pieces of liner o-ring.....both orange and black pieces, indicating both top and bottom o-rings as if the...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Yeah, I am really curious to get that oil pan off and try to see what happened up in there. I can't understand why that would have happened. And yeah, what sucks is I currently have no way at my shop to lift the old engine out, and a new one in even if I did find a replacement engine if I need...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Well..........Found the source of my water in the oil:-) Went up to where the truck sits today to change the oil, and see if I could make the thing road worthy enough to drive it home. When I took the oil drain plug out, I found only the normal tiny bit of metal substance stuck to it like you...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    Yes it does freeze where the truck is parked. Not a whole lot, since it is close to sea level in Washington state, but it does freeze. However, the coolant has sufficient anti freeze in it that freezing shouldn't have been a problem. The reason I suspect the oil cooler, is because this truck...

    Water in oil in M925A1 - New addition

    :jumpin: So I just today finally bought me another M925A1 after a three year hiatus of not owning any military vehicles. I bought a house and property here in northwestern Oregon a year and a half ago, and there was no extra money or time to be messing around with military trucks for a while...
