Has anyone ever used a Torque wrench to test compression on the 6.2 and 6.5? I know if it’s low compression you could easily turn the crank using a socket wrench. But how about a torque wrench? What would be the foot pounds of torque on a good compression motor?

So why did gm decide to not make them anymore? What are the common failures? How can they be improved or modified to work better? Anyone have experience with them? What years did gm have them in the 6.2? Etc...

Many thanks to Steelsoldiers members Richingalveston and Camkillers for making this rare opportunity of selling me an almost full 6.2L banks turbo kit! I decided to run with a banks kit because I feel much safer with the lower boost and reliability of the kit. Also there is much less...

I was thinking... With my 1995 6.5 TD donor with 208,000 miles that still runs top... Should I drop that 6.5 in my M1009 instead of doing a 6.2/6.5 hybrid? Would I need to put a 6.2 oil pan on the 6.5? Will the exhaust manifolds clear the frame with Off Road Design Motor mounts? What would...

So I picked up a low mile 6.2 J code and replaced every single gasket on it and did a bunch of upgrades. Since I put the motor in it has been eating Coolant very very slowly. No coolant on the ground. It is going into the oil. The oil is not creamy. It is a very dark dark green color when you...

Hello! I bought a custom built DB2 IP from Badgerdiesel eBay because the old ip was leaking from the throttle seal. I installed the new ip and the M1009 fired right up but ran rough with white smoke with the ip timing set mark to mark. I advanced the timing as far as I could and it runs a lot...

Hello! I have a 1984 M1009 with the 6.2 diesel with only 50,000 miles on it. For some reason it seems to be having hard starts when the motor is cold. It has new batterys, new glow plugs. There is a puff of bluish white smoke that comes out after it starts with a heavy smell of fuel. Once the...

Hello! I have an 83 Gmc 6.2 diesel truck Civilian I just swapped a Cucv J code with new injection pump on it. Only 30,000 miles. Started knocking loud and loss of power. Happens when at idle while in gear. Any ideas will help?

Hello! I heard there is a tool that can be used to ream out the glow plug holes to get the carbon out to make it easier to put in the new glow plugs. I was wondering if anyone knows what size reamer I should get and brand of choice? Any advice would help:)

Hello! My 6.2 Diesel in my m1009 started making a thumping sound coming from the intake manifold on the passenger side. It starts up and runs great, but after the motor warms up it starts to make a thumping sound and loses power. I was reading it could be valve springs broken or valves stuck...
