The area of the spun brg wil haveturned darker than the rest of the castings. Take a light and look up between the rods and min caps and the crank. You'll see "stuff" peeking out the side of the failed journal.
If you don't totally flush the old green stuff out, the system fills with a nasty grey goo that is almost impossible to get out.
I would never put that orange crap in my stuff. It eats rubber and nothing mixes with it so if there are issues on the road, you are tattoed.
Easy on the starting fluid. It likes to loosen carbon and then it gets into the ring lands and before you know it, you have stuck rings. That means pushing pistons out. Got an air compressor? Loosen the line that goes into the pump a turn or two, Take the fuel cap off, insert a blow gun and use...
Most likely 75 to 80% of flywheel rated HP. So if the engine is rated at 139 HP, you will see around 104 to 111 or so to the ground. Maybe a but less since it is also going through a transfer case as well as a transmission.
SUCCESS!!! :beer: :jumpin::driver:
Pulled the trans filter out this AM, not alot of stuff on the surface, still cleaned it out, a mess of "stuff" came out, mostly pieces of silicone that "soldier B" has sealed things with, but it was good to clean it out. Reassembled it and gave it the twice...
Well, it's been a bit since I updated things. The M551 pulled itself out of the troughs it was in under it's own power. :beer: Took a bit to get it going, 1 injector was stuck in the no fuel position. Did a 180 from the parking spot and put it into the shop. There it got a traverse mechanisim, a...
It's been a bit since I touched base here. The track is up and running. We took it out of the place it sat for years under it's own power, did a 180 and put it in the shop. Did some fixing, made a traverse mechanisim, stole a bustle rack off the stripped hull, made the hinged covers for the...
No. don't re set the injectors. Once you set it it is set. No reason to re do it OR increase the torque, you'll bend things. The fuel is pushed out when it was set if there were any in it. The advice you got is FUD. When you shut the truck off, did you use the shut down cable on the dash? If so...
Easy on the cleaning etiquette boys, gotta stay PC. Hole, check your PM. When you wanna pull out. What, somewhere around 6 weeks to go??!! I have some wood...to burn...well for the trip too!
How 'bout a want to buy /trade for the trip?
I have a new MGPTS tent I want to sell. PM me if interested.
Remove 4 12 point bolts that go into the compressor. There will be a triangle shaped cover on the back side of the pump. Remove the 3, 1/4 inch capscrews and the cover will come off. There will be a red, orange or black rubber lookin' thing with a nut in the middle. You can pull the whole...
