The vehicle only has 8200 miles on it, and i'm putting a used cam in it. I however purchased all new sprockets, gears and timing chain, waterpump, and I have a new IP.

The magnets will only pull them up about a half inch each, they won't come out all the way. I wanted to know if a half inch on each side will be far enough to swap the cams. The vehicle has only 8200 miles on it. I had two bolts back out of the water pump plate. one sheered off when it cam...

Has anyone tried to replace the cam without pulling the heads. After I pulled the rods I noticed I can use a magnet to pull the lifters out about a half inch. I thought about using 16 magnets to pull up the lifters all at once, and slide the cam out and the new one in. Any thoughts?

I guess I will contact badger and see if I can send him the pump back for testing. I did change the mechanical lift pump out. It was the second thing I did in the long history of these issues.

Yes that is the case. She did idle and accelerate when in park. As soon as I got her out of the drive way and hit the gas, I lost all power and it would stall.

Badger Diesel out of WI did the IP and the Injectors

My first post has a list of the things I replaced (IP, Injectors, fuel lines, dropped and cleaned tank, sending unit with sock, manual lift pump, electric pump.) I'm focused on this issue because before I added the electric pump and pulled off the manual one, I at least had the truck running...

Answered my own question on the solenoid

I just checked the solenoid. With the key in the on position, it clicks once when I first attach the pink wire. Then I don't hear anything. Is it suppose to keep clicking? And if so, does it click when the engine is running?

Here is the story in a nut shell. The truck has been down for almost a year now. The original problem, she would idle, but when I tried to to drive herI would hit the gas and I had no power, then she would stall, or if I would hit the brakes she would stall. I had a few other issues that...

OK, I just checked the fuel pressure using a Harbor Frieght combination pump and vacuum test gauge. Not sure if there is a special gauge that is used for diesel. The pump is rated for 10-14 psi. I'm getting 8 psi on this gauge. Again I do have flow out the exit on the fuel filter, but can't...

Hope someone can help with this issue. I put an electric fuel pump on my 84 M1028. I can't get the system to bleed the air. I have fuel at the inlet to my fuel filter, and fuel exits heading to the IP. This entire fuel system has been rebuilt (IP, Injectors, fuel lines, dropped and cleaned...

Does anyone have a source for a rebuild kit for the 6.2 fuel injectors. I did a search and only came up with rebuilt injectors.

Thanks Skinny, Rockauto has them for $90.79 GMPARTSDIRECT.com has them for 93.67 Part number 14057219

Does anyone know of a source for the Vacuum Regulator Valve for the 6.2?

I actually striped out all the 208 3 phase wiring and rewired for 110. I picked up the 3 pin connector and made a cable to power the shelter. Now that it is getting hot here in Arizona, 101, 3 days ago. I am going to gut the 208 AC unit on the front of the shelter and install a 110 AC in the...

Here are some pictures of the inside of the S-250 Shelter. Still a work in progress. Have radios to install this week

Nominate 1984 CUCV I nominate my 1984 M1028 CUCV with S-250 Comm Shelter

I am experiencing a lack of power under load which I explained in an earlier post. Due to process of elimination my IP needs to be rebuilt. Can I advance the timing to get more power out of her till I can get the IP rebuilt?

I checked the compression this morning. All 8 were between 410 to 425. This is what I expected to find since there is only 8700 original miles. The timing marks are lined up. I have no smoke coming from the exhaust at all. I am starting to think it might be the IP. My question now is, If I...
