I have a Stanadyne dealer 5 miles from my house, so I am going to reach out and see about a rebuild. I wish I would of know this before I installed this. I really don't feel like tearing the top of the motor apart again.
When looking up part numbers for a 6.2 vs 6.5 engine it shows the piston in the pump to be a different size and different pressure. I didn't realize that the pumps weren't that much different. I guess the seller of pump must have not had the correct information about the pump and I went...
I'm wondering if a clogged injector would cause it to idle like this. When I first got it running it didn't have this high idle.
Or possibly a clogged return line.
The 6.2 and 6.5 have different IPs, so I thought that might be the reason why he had high idle. I figured the 6.5 would have a higher fuel need than a 6.2.
There is a idle screw on the throttle linkage. I didn't know if there is any other adjustments on the IP to adjust idle.
I'm hoping that I didn't get burned on eBay. Seller stated it was idling high on his 6.2.
From the listing.
Stanadyne DB 2831-5149 Fuel Injection Pump for 6.5L Non-Turbo...
I have my idle adjustment screw on my IP turned all the way down. This is a video of it running I don't know if there's any other way to adjust the idle.
Yours looks awesome with the camo top! I got the Arctic because that's all I could find.
Tires should be here tomorrow, they were delayed in Wisconsin due to weather. Split rims are easy to deal with. Make sure you get new o rings. I'm not using the run flats so hopefully pretty easy to put on.
I don't think so either. I've ran it a few times up and down the street, no leaks. Trans full, oil fuel and power steering full.
I went over every inch and didn't find anything missing.
I did get to finish my 4 door conversion! So now I wait on sf97.
I haven't moved this out of garage other than test drives. My 1991 Z28 sits next to it. That hasn't moved since Oct.
I went through all the tms looking at every schematic.
