    809 series coolant flush procedure?

    I found on the 809 series there were two burp petcocks on the motor and only bringing up the level to the top of the expansion tank would it expell all the air. I only found one burp plug on the 939 series 250 Cummins motor and that was a plug on the top right side of the radiator and I did not...

    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    You said open valve cover oil fill look at the valve you can see that is to the back side of the fill hole and when it is down or open the HB is TDC for #1 and advance timing marks are correct. You did not have to watch #1 intake drop to find #1 TDC. Keeps from dirt or crap and time taking off...

    You need to ask Gimpy to again show the trick he found so you do not have to remove the valve cover. Saves time.

    Some fuel filters slightly less than ideal.

    Some fuel filters slightly less than ideal.

    The ten micron secondary and six micron final correct filters can be had at NAPA but you have to buy the canister o rings as the one that are in with the filters are not correct.

    Some fuel filters slightly less than ideal.

    The cup goes the other way so it cuts into the cork or rubber. So to be correct you would install in the canister first. washer, spring, washer, o ring, dish up then filter.
