valve cover off now. Typical gasket over tightened and warped cover

I have the LT plenum and #1,3,5 injector lines off. Stuck on #7 as I can’t seem to get the crowfoot & wrench on from a LT attack position. Really would like to avoid having to remove the RT plenum and even numbered lines just to get #7 off.

Old thread I know. That said, just saw this bleed 🩸 fitting off the CV on my 1151. I don’t recall seeing one on my 998 before.

I’m looking 👀 forward to seeing the old upper mounts out for inspection. From what I can tell they are all significantly compressed

Body mounts are definitely compressed. Followed advice and raised the body a tad. This plenum is definitely taller as well

Which mfg/type of grey? Presume high temp rigid….

Yeah planning to use RTV black ultra, no gasket

I’ll try again a few more times. Perhaps the body mounts are compressed but they look ok. Almost have the turbo out anyhow.

I’m following TM sequence to service LH valve cover gasket. Plenum crossover and LH manifold must come off in sequence so as to not bend injection lines. TM 9-2320-387-24-2 Sections 15-20 15-16 16-4 15-11 The problem is there is not enough clearance to remove crossover from turbo outlet. A...

Ordered one from HPG. Gather prices are going up rapidly…

Regulator failed on the road today. I was fortunate to make it to my destination on battery. Q: suggestions on where to source this regulator? New/NOS pricing seems to vary $600-$900ish which IMO is pretty dear for a voltage regulator.

Scored an aftermarket rear shaft from a local community member. The shaft was a bit odd with a small flange 10k size plunge joint hub side and a 12k hub side joint. Works fine. We’ll see how it holds up.

Curious if anyone has cross reference the 12k joint parts to commercially available sub components. I saw a post for the 10k but not the 12K. Noticed GKN is one of the suppliers for the small flange 12k shafts. Maybe I’ll look at their documentation…

Pulled the shaft apart this afternoon. 2/3 rollers came off the cross inside the hub side joint. The cross and joint housing are a bit galled. looking for a few shaft now or at least a donor inner joint.

Galvanic corrosion is bad enough on the armored trucks. Stainless on aluminum will be worse unless real care is taken with mitigation. Think non conductive sleeves, washers and plastic sheeting.
