find out the miles and how it was treated before you buy. you most definitely don't want another engine like the one you have.

 

another bad injector!thats what the problem is #7 this time im gona replace all 6 old injectors

 

Your experience is one of the reasons that I like to do all eight if it's in the budget.

 

update picking up my 6 injectors tommorow!should be easy goin!but i am not gona worry about getting all the oil out of the cylinders!ill just burn it out!

 

Well...at least get most of it out before trying to crank it.

 

I'm very near 65 years old and have owned, raced, off-roaded and beat the hell out of every kind of vehicle you can think of. The only real junk I have owned was a couple of Chrysler products. Corvettes, I've had plenty, but not all that practical as an everyday driver. This PSD is beyond a doubt the most reliable of any and all vehicles I've ever owned. I've also babied all of them, except for the race cars and hill climbing in California with my off-road stuff. Thank God I finally grew out of that expensive crap. Maybe you just have a bad one by some stroke of bad luck.

 

when it runs man it runs good! but its like a sick person that gets to many colds and has too see doctor pocket book!

 

Well hopefully when ya get them injectors all in this will be the end of your troubles. Good luck man!!!

 

Yes you sure will

 

I had something similar happen to me. I replaced the #7. shortly after #4 was acting up, so i replaced all other injectors and have had jo issues since. Good luck to you.

 

Medhvac the best way to clear the cylinders is to remove the glow plugs and turn the engine over with a big bar by hand for a couple of revolutions. A 24mm 12 point socket is required. Any oil left over in the cylinders will squirt out of the glow plug holes like a whale breathing so cover the engine with a piece of cardboard or something.
After that crank on the starter for about 15 seconds. Do that 2 or three times. That will help fill the HPOP rail back up without making the starter turn against the compression of the engine.
Then reinstall the glow plugs, (How about some new ones while they are out?) and button everything else up.
It should start in less than 30 seconds crank time if you've done everything right.

 

ok another update! i put my 6 new injectors in and cranked the engine that was a no go.had hydro lock!lmao i shoulda listened.

thanks Tenn01PSD350 and Kwikkordead.

after trying and trying she fired up! then i thought things where getting really bad i had oil comeing out the exhaust! i lost so much oil that it took sometime to burn it all off! but anyway shes fixed and running! knock on wood!

 

Good grief Greg. You like drama don't you? Well I hope it is fixed now anyway.

 

no not really to do 1 injector was easy!pull bad one out ,put in new one and crank! but more than one you need to get the oil out!lol

 

Glad to hear things are looking up. Glad you kept at least a little of your sense of humor also. Good job!
