    Head gasket repair walk through - go to post #31!

    I would go to SECO and get their set with the new style head gaskets. It is a complete engine gasket set, but it is worth it to have everything you need. I think they are around $280 ish. MAake sure you get the new style, modern style, 1 piece gaskets. No need to re torque, permaseal around...

    M8 Greyhound brake help

    Pretty fancy set up! How I fixed the soft first pedal, normal 2nd pedal was to bleed the system from the wheel cylinders backwards to the MC. I learned this on, believe it or not, 1980s motorcycles with dual front discs. It took a bit and 2 people to do it to make sure the brake fluid didn't...

    M8 Greyhound brake help

    Your issue now is no pedal on the first push and a good pedal after that, or the brakes stay applied after releasing the pedal?

    Advice on repair radiator or replace with new m931a2

    No RTV, It will push the cork out. Just clean it, apply the gasket then TORQUE it up. Over tightening will cause it to leak. The tanks and heddars need to be straight. Honestly, I would take it to a shop for the reason mentioned above. The heddars can be re soldered and any issue fixed. Would...

    Artisan's M916

    A second cap could mean a second water intrusion point. If it were me, I would pull the tank...you'll probably want to pull it to cut/weld the 2nd neck on it any how and they come out fast when empty....and take it here. Stanton Radiator 10645 Beach Blvd, Stanton, CA 90680 Phone: (714)...

    m1083

    NO, Simp is trying to tell you that if you do not have the knowledge on how the system works, it is not safe to you or others around you to try and educate yourself and then experiment with things that can kill you or others. It is a good thing to learn how things work, we all start out that...

    Tachometer question on my M35A3 ?

    Pull the sensor from the flywheel housing, clean the end with a rag, no need to use a liquid cleaner. Make sure the potting material is not loose and the magnet is in the end of the sensor. Re install until it GENTLY touhes the ring gear, back it off 1/2 turn and LIGHTLY lock the nut down, IIRC...

    Engine failure, rebuild, with turbo, jakes.

    Upper bearings are the wear point. What do they look like? If you get new bearings, make sure they don't give you the ones for the non stud/nut rods. The oil hole is offset and you will not oil the piston pin. Ya know, you can take the push tubes out and you will be fine. It will be hard putting...

    SAE 2 Clutch help....what am I doing wrong?

    MOST 6B engines never came with a twin disc clutch. They were single disc or autos. Not enough torque/HP to warrant that much clutch.

    SAE 2 Clutch help....what am I doing wrong?

    I don't think it is a case of people NOT wanting to help you, but rather they CAN'T help you. Most parts people don't even know about the different options available. They know that in order to get the correct part for a customers engine, one that is either bought new in a vehicle, used in a...

    Engine swap poll

    My 2cents, A swap to ANY inline will force a gear change. Remember, they turn 2500 RPM or less in stock form. there is usually apx 2-3 mph to every 100 rpm turned, so if the 6.2 turns 3600 RPM and the I 4-6 turns 2500 RPM, there will be a minimum road speed loss of 22 MPH. Your mileage will...

    Long term storage of rubber and plastic parts?

    Silicone spray or oil. The spray is from all kinds of places, CRC, NAPA, etc. Home Depot, and I am sure other hardware stores, sell 4 oz bottles of silicone oil. When I build up wheel cylinders, master cylinders, air packs or anything that has rubber cups, packing, o-rings, for any storage time...

    M1236 Cougar?

    A place I know of, has in their posession, what I believe to be a BAE produced MRAP/Cougar H M1236. 4x4, Cat powered, very dirty. Been sitting there a while. Guess it sorta belongs to a local PD. It was towed there, non runner. I was there and they asked about it. Seems they cannot get the...

    fuel line cracked

    Same engine, C6 8.3, just a newer part that was prone to failure. As said before, about 98% that ALL were the same, turboed, aftercooled, CAC. All the nozzles, mounts and return points were the same. So, if there is a bone yard by you that has a truck or piece of equipment in it that has a C...

    SAE 2 Clutch help....what am I doing wrong?

    You need the make/model of the trans, type of clutch being used, input shaft size, distance of throw out bearing to flywheel, edge of bell housing to forks at depressed and released and do the math to get the proper flywheel. Might be easier to install an Allison MT behind it or find a wrecked...
