I saw that and thought the same thing. I thought to be on the safe side that I should err on the side of caution and keep my foot out of my mouth. I still can't believe that is where the oil drain plug could be located. Maybe a repair job, strange. It does look like it is leaking.
Yeah, defiantly the bling rims got to go, but the springs stay. Remember, getting in and out of your vehicle, at some peoples age, starts to become a concern!
I would make sure all the water pump bolts are tight. Easy 10 minute job. Guetintight. It can't leak from the bottom of the p[ump, it has to be leaking from a gasket, a bolt, or the weep hole. I would ask your mechanic if he used thread sealer on the pump bolts.
All you have to do is ask the guy if he off set the seal. If he is honest and says that he did not, then he should fix it for free. First make sure the seal is where the leak is coming from. The coolant leak may be coming from somewhere else. Check the thermostat for leaking, check the coolant...
From what you describe as your problems, In my opinion, you don't need a specific diesel mechanic to correct your issues. A top seasoned veteran engine mechanic can solve all of your issues. Just print out the information from the training manuals for fixing your issues, and if the mechanic...
If I remember correctly the correct fuel pump if you pull down on the lever it will immediately have resistance and begin to pump. on the incorrect one, the lever will have some play before it engages.
Have you cracked the injector lines and bled all the air out at the injectors? You said it squirts fuel out of the fuel pump, is it a new pump, and the right pump? It might be an Injection pump issue. You probably already know, that there are two fuel pumps that fit but only one is the correct...
I would have paid money to watch a video of you running that thing at top speed. That would have been more fun than doing it myself, I think. You are doing a great job. You must really be enjoying restoring a piece of Military history back to pristine condition.
It's common for the vacuum regulators to go out, so I think you made a smart choice. Since you have the vacuum gauge coming, I would test everything before you change parts so you know what the problem was. Like I said, change all the rubber vacuum hoses and then diagnose your problem. If it...
Vacuum pump. Glow plug temperature sensor. It senses the coolant temperature and sends the signal to the control card and then sends the signal to the glow plug solenoid.

30mm. they make a special socket to protect the return fuel line connectors. OTC detroit diesel 6.2 GM injector socket at Amazon. Pricey You can use a regular socket with care not to damage the return fuel line connectors
It's hard to tell from the picture, but if it's attached to the IP then it's you're VRC valve. It regulates the amount of vacuum from the pump to your transmission based on your throttle position.
You have a Th400 transmission. Any 1984 K-30 Th400 transmission modulator search will bring up a lot of choices. B&M 20234 for $51.00 at Amazon is one choice. I think you are getting ahead of yourself on your parts search for the solution to your problem. Your vacuum modulator may be fine. Start...
