everything is installed at this point. I had to order oil because apparently SAE 40 is hard to find. I’ll have it next Tuesday. I have the spare oil filter ready as well. Filled the radiator with 10 gallons plus 10 gallons of water. New batteries are next.

Smoke leaking from the tailpipe yet? My D-max project made .....well, no smoke, still runs the same. Me thinks a "tuner" that was on it issue or a $800 sensor.

WE HAVE SMOKE!!!!
Yes folks, she fired up today...about time...
I built a device to pressurize the fuel system. I couldn’t believe how long it took to get fuel slowing. I used 10 PSI to get the fuel to flow thru the system. Good thing I did because I found 2 fuel lines loose. Here is my pressurizer rig. 10 PSI BTW.
