Guys, that excavator rachet wrench is the greatest and the photos are super, but and there is a great big "BUT"...The photos are not of a Cali pump. The banjo bolt on a Cali is approx 11/2 to 2" further under the turbo.
Now lets say that by some mistical, magical effort one would manage to get that Banjo bolt out how in Gods good name would you ever get it back in without the help of a trained monkey?
Now I'm wondering why does the Cali truck even need that damn flying saucerof a dampner if the other 49 states don't and its the same pump.
I'd leave that thing off in a heart beat if I can.
How do the other trucks in the other 49 states dampen their fuel pressure?? Is this a "Smog" thingy???

For those of you that don't know what the back of a Cali pump looks like as it hides it's little banjo Bolt beneath the turbo, I will take some photos so everyone knows what a chamber of hell it really is.
Here's the rub....I don't know how to post pix on this site or any other site so if one of you willing guru's will PM me your E-mail address I will send you the pix and you can display them.
After the pix have been posted I will, in the name of security and your personal safty I will personally eat your E-mail address so that it will never fall into the enemys hands. OK?
Also, I have been bending and grinding on wrenches like a metal termite as I attempt to remove the Turbo. Do you know what Ford did? On the up pipe at the top they used one size "BOLT" head and then on the lower and hidden "NUTS" they went smaller. Now if that's not the work of the Chinese I don't know what is.
What happens if I don't put that Dampner Disc back on and I do have "Splitshot Injectors"? And I think that I do.
Hang in there troops this ordeal can't be smarter then all of us. (Or you guys anyway)
