    valve adustment signs and symptoms

    Sounds like a smith corona typewriter, If they are out of adjustment too bad, it can smoke lots, not be so smooth at idle, just sounds kinda ratty. After a correct adjustment, you'll notice better power, better mileage...like THAT matters :roll:, better throttle response and it'll just sound better.

    Plug came out

    You should leave coolant in it. It rusted through. Proper antifreeze concentration will stop whatever damage that is happening, but the rust pits will still be there.

    Falls on its face at 1800 rpms

    Does it happen in every gear? Check to see that it is getting full throttle.

    Turning up a NHC250

    Maybe it's cause they use the metric system up there?

    Turning up a NHC250

    Depends on which pump you have. Injectors are easy, pull V/C, loosen adjuster, take the hold down out, remove injector and reverse the procedure for assembly. It's assembly that messes people up. Why you wana put injectors in it? Also, turning up the fuel won't do anything for top end, that...

    If it was a Frito Lay or Granny Goose van, they will be at around a 5 degree tilt but it'll still fit. Lots more room too.

    Canadian specs for the 250 cummins what a difference

    Setting up a pump is an art. What one person does can vary to the next. You can do it and get close, without a pump stand, if you use all the correct springs, shims, throttle shaft for the pump, etc. The stand drives the pump, not the other way around when it's on the truck. There is easily 10...

    engine shut down problem

    Welcome, please try to post as you would talk to someone in front of you. Is the in-tank pump running? Has it been sitting for an extended period of time? Possibly a filter issue.

    290 cummins

    The cooling nozzles are there to help keep the piston temps down when the engine is loaded. Too much fuel, fueling beyond the design limits of the engine, causes more heat than the engine components were designed to take. When a turbo is added to the engine, you add heat to the cylinder. When...

    Alternator Rotation Direction

    That's all it's for, getting a dead vehicle started so it can be moved. In the repair industry, it seems trucks will start each and every day for the operator, but when the vehicle is brought in for a service event, it goes dead. A hot start is a fast way to get a truck running if it's dead...
