Well ive decided that im going to gte new rings for the bad cylinder, new head gasket, and anyhting else i need. My friend from work came with me to my house, and he said its most likely rings, so he is going to help me drop the oil pan crank and redo timing. So my next pay check will start the epoch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So itwas running at 500 rpm and when i gacve it gas it must of starved and died. Now idleing at 1000 rpm it wont die after i floor it to 3-4 grand!!!!!!! IM SO HAPPY!!!!

Thats good, really good. But there is still a concern that you may have a bad head gasket. I wouldn't push it to hard untill you have determined if you have a bad head gasket or not.. you might blow her up if you don't find out

Well on a compression test, bubbles would be coming up in the radiator, and i saw none, so im ruling out bad head gasket.

When the head gasket is leaking air goes through the block into the cooling system. Im not sure how, but in my training in engine perf. I learned that.

P.S. im grounded from driving except to and from work for the entire summer. I get to do something i want in my car once every two weeks, due to a D in math. I need a B average in order to drive, my summer is kinda screwed.

fatt_matt · « **Reply #159 on:** Jun 01, 2007, 10:14:01 PM »

good luck man, on getting that B.. what math are you taking???

i dont really wanna go looking through the whole thread again, but where are you in colorado???

Rainer · « **Reply #160 on:** Jun 02, 2007, 06:34:51 AM »

Hey Mark, grounded for the whole summer for getting a D, wow i was lucky to get D's in school, except for auto class (A's) lol.

Rainer · « **Reply #166 on:** Jun 04, 2007, 11:17:59 AM »

Yeah Josh, I got 1 A, 3 Bs and a D. I had a 104% in auto class. Well im grounded from driving, only to and from work i can do. Every two weeks i can take my car or truck and do something i want. Other wise i can still do stuff, i just have to be picked up or meet somewhere. I have the truck almost fixed. I cant figure out the last problem.

Mark

fatt_matt · « **Reply #167 on:** Jun 04, 2007, 09:11:14 PM »

whats the problem??? is it the engine one?

Rainer · « **Reply #168 on:** Jun 05, 2007, 06:31:02 AM »

Yeah, it runs now, it just miss fires really bad. Also when im drivig it feels like it just revs when i get to 3k-4k rpms, like no power.

Mark

854RUN · « **Reply #169 on:** Jun 05, 2007, 07:11:45 AM »

As far as the miss fire goes, that sounds like a timing issue (cap, rotor, plugs, wires, timing) did you replace any of that stuff. so when driving when you hit 3k or so dose it feel like an instant power boost? If so it is most likely related to the time issues you are having.

Rainer · « **Reply #170 on:** Jun 05, 2007, 07:55:49 PM »

NO when i hit 3k it just lags. I replaced my plugs, and thats it. Should i replace the distributor?

Mark

Vic stuff · « **Reply #171 on:** Jun 05, 2007, 08:34:09 PM »

start with the basic stuff, plug wires, cap, rotor, get your timing set. sucks about bein grounded, wow dont miss those days, lol

854RUN · « **Reply #172 on:** Jun 06, 2007, 10:25:17 AM »

x2 and set the timing about 10* adv...

Rainer · « **Reply #173 on:** Jun 08, 2007, 08:38:33 AM »

I did my timing last night. WOW is what about 10 degrees behind. SO i set it ten degrees in advance. It idles better now, but it still miss fires really bad. So im going to replace my cap, rotor, and plug wires. Hope that will fix it.

Mark

Rainer · « **Reply #174 on:** Jun 14, 2007, 06:01:04 PM »

Well im stuck, i replaced the cap, rotor and put performance plug wires on the runner. Well it still miss fires really bad. This sucks! I need help. Here are some pics.

Jud · « **Reply #175 on:** Jun 15, 2007, 12:03:50 AM »

Your #'s 3 and 4 plug wires look like ther switched around!

Rainer · « **Reply #176 on:** Jun 18, 2007, 07:58:01 PM »

I just got some Marlin Crawler rock sliders from a guy in town, brand new for $100. Im not sure what would be the best way to mount them? Any help would be great, maybe some pics as well would be nice. I think im going to bolt them on, not sure how though.

Mark

DTB · « **Reply #177 on:** Jun 18, 2007, 08:01:52 PM »

weld them on...plate the frame where you weld them and use gussets on the tops of the legs

use jackstands to hold them in position when welding (another person helps to hold too)

the plate in the pic is straight, a 45 degree turn or fishmouths would be better though

Rainer · « **Reply #178 on:** Jun 19, 2007, 07:45:30 PM »

I removed my intake manifold today, look and tell me what you guys see. I see anti freeze in my manifold? My injector electric plugins all suck balls. What to do? Hey DTB where can i get those plates? Is there fuel pressure in the fuel rail with the manifold off? I want to remove the injectors but will fuel poor out?

if the truck as been sitting for a bit and not ran you should be able to pull the fuel rail and injectors with out fuel spraying all over. That look like antifreeze or the green mud u sucked up
