You should be able to hear the in tank pump run if it is working. I can hear mine in the cab with the engine off (and air buzzer off, of course). Next run, after you shut the engine off but with the accessory switch on, go to the fuel tank and listen for the pump. It makes a noticeable hum. Of...

Tried all of the above. I live in Chase MI, 49623. The map puts me at Chase, MI 34923. No matter what I input it keeps changing it to Chase, MI 34923. I tried changing the ZIP code, used my full addy, even entered latitude and longitude from a topo map and it still puts me at Chase, MI 34923.

I'm willing to be the guinea pig for this project!

Negative - LDT465-1C or LDT465-1D refers to the engineering change level of the engine, mostly internal components. Either on could have either a C or D turbo, depending on what was on hand when the engine was built/rebuilt. I have a -1D engine with a C turbo.

Matt - How do you know that? Actually, I figure originally it was a N/A engine - the engine data plate says to set ther timing to 25 degrees, which is correct for a N/A engine; 20 degrees is correct for a turbo engine. Someone must have added the turbo later on in the trucks life. chief76433...

RE: Preluber pics Flatlander - Why not blow a bunch of stuff up this guys butt? Tell him a bunch of folks on this site are interested in his pumps and to give the $100 price to steel soldiers members. If that pump works, and I don't see why it wouldn't, he would get a lot of sales from us.

Re: RE: Houston area roll call.... Anyone know how to get yourself listed on the map? I've tried several times, still can't get the red pin to show up for me!

Re: RE: Impact wrench and compressor I also broke TWO elcheapo Chinese breaker bars on my truck. My suggestion - Get a GOOD US made 3/4" breaker bar (one that will be replaced if it breaks) and the Harbor Freight 1/2" Earthquake impact wrench. Use the breaker bar with a pipe extension to bust...

RE: Preluber pics Hydraulic pump fittings come in a variety of thread styles besides your standard JIC flare and NPT types. Those might be SAE treads. Surplus Center has quite a few adapters to convert to other thread types. Lets get 10 of us together to make a buy at the reduced price and give...

Re: RE: pump So flatlander, are you taking orders to get the 10 pumps for $100 each price?

No, not me. I run a single pre turbo pyrometer. I don't see any advantage in running both pre and post turbo pyrometers on a single vehicle. The pre turbo pyro measures the egt of the flow of exhaust gases into the turbine of the turbo, which IMHO is the more important place to measure egt to...

The inner clamp screw has to be installed at the top, otherwise the knuckle will wipe the clamp out of it's seat when turning. I can verify this from experience - three times in fact, until someone on this site explained why my inner clamp kept popping off. The TM illustration appears to show...

Being a former MA resident, now living in MI for many years, I have a fair amount of experience in cold, snowy weather. A cab heater is a real requirement, a hard top nearly so. There is too much air leakage in the soft top to give the heater a fair chance in cold weather! For practical use in...

Here is a boot I go from Saturn last Fall (installed on 11/26/2006) with rivets. It is torn already, I first noticed it was torn a month or so ago, so it lasted me six months at best. It tore at both the top and bottom. Possibly very cold weather was a factor in its demise. The second pic is a...

RE: pump I'd be in for one for sure at the $100 discounted price.

RE: pump 3.5 gpm should be enough to get 10-20 psi easily, it should work quite well. Got a price on those hydraulic power units?

CORRECTION: The LD/LDT 465 family of engines have a max operating speed of 2600 RPM The LDS 465-1 engines have a max operating speed of 2600 RPM The LDS 465-2 engines have a max operating speed of 2800 RPM

I stand corrected (somewhat): Per TM 9-2320-211-10, Operators Manual for 5 ton series trucks, page 2-45, the max operation speed for a LDS 465-1 engine is 2600 RPM, for a LDS 465-2 engine max is 2800 RPM. So I guess I was half right.

Same mistake I made at first. A -1C or -1D on the engine plate (as in LDT 465-1C or LDT 465-1D) does NOT refer to the turbo, it refers to the level of engineering change of the engine, generally a specific subset of internal components. Thus a LDT 465-1C or LDT 465-1D could have either a "C" or...

Perhaps I am wrong, I was writing from memory which is not always 100% accurate. Anyone else want to chime in here?
