You can if you want shorter fingers. Myself I like mine the way they are.

dmetalmiki I do not believe I have ever said that when the HB and advanced unit are on there marks that the red tooth / scribe would be on it mark. As I said we only line up the Head red / scribe to remove the Head from the IP. As said if the HB was on #1 TDC and advance window is on it mark the...

Correct timing is approximately one tooth off as I said before. As per TM. If these two timing marks are aligned remove the timing cover and look to see if the red mark / scribe can be seen. Now it says seen but it does not say on the head pointer. If it can be seen injection pump is on the...

Sad news.

Yes and no when the red tooth is just about one tooth off to the rear and advanced window and harmonic balancer is on there marks then according to the TM we are timed correct. Yes we only have to line up the red / scribe mark if we need to remove the Head no matter where the HB or the advance...

I have more times than once day dreamed about an Airstream mounted on an MV. Thought about it today while I went to get my 1088 from my other property. Looks like I need another carport first. If the Airstream was done so it's axles could be put back on for any reason it would still hold it's...

Wess I believe you can tell us the feeling you get when you see one of your tires passing you on the highway. I have never had it happen but if it did I can only think of what a 300 / 600 pound tire could do to a car / driver. I follow the manufacture instructions and just use a couple drops of...

Myself if the torque specs call for 500 I go 500 on the thimbles and maybe 470 on the outer nut. That way the thimble does not want to come off before the outer nut.

Your truck so do it the way you feel comfortable. I will bring my beam torque wrench if I come to the Ga. rally this year if we even still have it and just for smitts and giggles lets see how close to specs we can get your way. Now as for your toys yea close enough but when running commercially...

Correct around 175 /180. I set mine at 200 no more. I also just went with a 200 range oil filled gage. Made this up to do / watch the pressure rise and fall when test driving the 250's.

Think I agree on the M37 specs being off. I set mine at 200 foot pounds for now being a garage queen.

The quarter thing was done when the trucks were still under control of Uncle Sam and I bet the FDC's were still hooked up. They did it so they did not have to cut the safety wire on the tin cover and twin nuts and get caught increasing the fuel. Now that you own the truck I do not think you will...

Yea with my truck four way and cheater bar I would say I am close to specs. Would seem like what we are looking for is all nuts to be consistent. If we were working in a shop then bring out the correct torque wrench too cover our Donkey. Myself I like cool tools.

Yea sometimes it is the simple things we over look myself included. To LIoydb I am not trying to give you a hard time but wanting you to see it is very hard to diagnose any problem over the internet. Sometimes the Deuce is the hardest with it simple but problematic IP system. Myself I do not...

Has nothing to do with your truck but. Back in the mid 70's working in a shop on for a customer. He says the car run great when going straight but cuts out in a turn. I take it for a test drive and yep cuts out in a turn. Bring it back to the shop and start to wonder / think. Open the hood and...

Yes I wear my seat belt in my truck glad I did here. Also I wear my seat belt in my MV's and any equipment I am running.

Well you can start or not with the trouble shooting manual or you can skip around. You can pull / test injectors. You can do compression check. You can check fuel delivery or you can start with the trouble shooting manual and we can keep on guessing.

Also double check the fuel control does not have the icky sticky going on.

I might have one just pay shipping. I will look as soon as I can.
