85 m1009 swap to 6.5L TD Hello SS brother's and sister's! I tired searching for this all day and found nothing close to what I'm going to ask. I wanted to ask will I run into any issues when if I put in the following 6.5L TD in the m1009? I know I'll need to change the intake but...

First things first I siphoned out the old diesel. Man was that stuff smelly! Per SS user 2INSANE he suggested I remove all the old gas, oil, tranny fluid, coolant, and so on. Put fresh gas in, fill the new fuel filter up with tranny fluid and a whole bottle of seafoam. Sure enough, that worked...

Nice thanks for this info, I'm still learning.

I thought we could only push 7PSI max to the IP or seals will start to blow and or leaks will occur. From my understanding, the current fuel pump is rated at 4-7 PSI. This would be the best pump Facet 40285. Cost some coin but well worth it and very reliable.

He's still working on it. I just bought some parts from him! Awesome dude! Water pump, injectors, and an injection pump.

Replace all the rubber fuel lines as well! Too bad, they don't make PTFE lines we could just pop on and forget about it. Maybe I'll design some and get a product going???!!!

Great Scott! I thought my rust was bad!
