    A quiet deuce?

    In case some people don't know, there are a lot of diesel pick ups ('94-'02 dodge, '98-04? Fords) that use 3.5" exhaust pipe from the factory you can rob bends off of. Just find a buddy that has swapped his exhaust for bigger and swazall it when he's not looking...lol.

    2012 louisiana steel soldiers rally

    I could provide some alternate parking at my place if everyone decides to come to central LA. If it's close enough to me this year I might be able to make it, I'll talk with the wife more as the rally gets closer.

    Well did some looking on the truck, no leaks that I can see, lines are tight, nothing is out of place. Next weekend I plan on changing the fuel filters now that I know the lines are good (at least I think). Now for the fun part, I have a blown head gasket aua...

    Fort Polk - M923 M931 Pickup and/or Trnspo Help

    If you need to store it for a short period you can get it hauled my way. I can't help with the pick up, I can't take off during the week.

    No worries Andrew, I know your busy.......I'm just being a pansy ...lol. I think some hard driving is in order, I have two five tons here I could drag along with a few more items. I think I just really need to drive the piss out of the truck for a good ride, Stacy has a fat girlfriend of hers...

    I haven't got all the paperwork together to drive it legally on the road, so I have been found and round our 5 acre patch trying to keep it above 1500rpm

    I doubt mine is the rod, it idles at 800rpm. If the truck starts jumping in rpm I can lightly place my foot on the throttle and let off which will make the engine plane out a little. But if I bump the throttle it starts over up and down in the rpm.

    Okay, I'm feeling a little more confident now knowing there is more than the governor and leaks. I'll have to start at the tank and work to the injectors. Thanks guys for the responses, I know how redundant threads are, I'm just going crazy and feel overwhelmed because this engine is new to me.

    Oh, I can hear the pump in the tank running when I turn the battery switch on. I have not checked the fuel pressure.

    Even though the filters seem clean and there is no trash pouring out of them should I still change them? I'm not aware of how touchy they are with filters.

    Now that I don't, but they looked clean when we changed the fuel.

    That could be a possibility as well, the truck sat up for a few years only being cranked every three months.
