    Motor Swapping

    On the mechanical engines, unfortunately, no 250-300 hp, but, the only parts needed to make your 1551 to the 1553 are a turbo, injectors and a fuel pump. The injectors and pump you have can be recalibrated to the 1553 spec so you don't have to buy new or exch if you don't want. The turbo has...

    Motor Swapping

    I've had both, the B series ana the DT on the dyno, that's what I do for a living. Not to be biased, but the B, CPL 1553, 230hp 850ft lb walks all over the DT. The power is best at rated RPM but the torque is down at 17-1800 RPM. It will hold a load much better than the DT. If 230 is too much...

    Turbo Diagnostic

    There should be no vacuum. A diesel doesn't make it. Try leaving the gauge hooked up and just drive it a short distance. Grey/white is incomplete combustion or a timing issue A pintle in a nozzle stuck open, a delivery valve in the pump, pump timing, air in the fuel, high fuel restriction, low...

    engine shut off

    Just a thought, Is there a return spring on the throttle lever? Is the lever going all the way back to the idle position? You said you lost a turbo, thats an uncontrolled fuel source, maybe the 2nd turbo is failed too. Try pulling the connectoin off at the intake manifold to see if it stops...

    Suggestions for a Keyed ignition switch for my new Deuce

    Go to a local truck repair shop...Navistar...Kenworth...Peterbilt. Ask the parts person to browse thru a Cole-Hearse catalog. You will find anything you need in that catalog! I think you can request a catalog over the net.
