That’s what I was talking about. Maybe someone can stick weld it or try to find a used manifold with no cracks. This was very common with the 20R.
There was a big problem with 20R heat shields causing the exhaust manifold to crack between #2&3 exhaust ports. I’d remove it. It serves no useful...
Probably more like 275K. Those 5 digit odometers fool a lot of people. Probably worth the $ just for the ID tag.
Most are. You have your normal truck battery, and a second battery that provides 12V power to the coach (living area). They’ve usually separated...
Are you running duel batteries with an isolator? Many times people hook into the wiper wiring harness to provide ignition power to the isolator....
Asian carbs are a bi..h to rebuild. The kit is cheap, but there’s so many small parts that need to go in “just right” or your just wasting time. I...
Are you sure you have the correct firing order on your spark plug wires? Small carb vacuum lines shouldn’t prevent the engine starting. Backfire...
You may loose a little oil when you go from vertical to horizontal, but not much. The important thing is the filter element is saturated with oil...
Hold the filter upright and pour the oil into the filter until almost full. Let the oil soak into the element (it will) then keep topping it off...
Pre fill your oil filter with new oil before you install it. As long as the oil pump is in good shape and the crankcase is full, you should be...
You do realize this thread is from 2010. I’m sure the OP is past the deodorant phase.
I think I like the round ones better. Or you could have made them like directional arrows. IMHO
Ring gap has nothing to do with bore diameter. The factory specs are for minimum and maximum clearance. I usually split the difference. The .004...
Like Cora on the coffee commercial used to say “ If its not broke, don’t try to fix it “ (probably before your time). Two problems I see with your...
If you’re doing everything do the pitman arm. Idler arm and tie rods are pretty simple. You don’t want to have to do the pitman arm later. And...
Actually, the pitman arm is very difficult to get off. I tried 3 different pullers with no luck. The steering box sits so close to the frame rail...
I believe this is a gravity fed pump. The head has to be below the fuel tank. Try lowering the pump and see if this helps.
Why take a chance. Flush the line. And be sure to use “new” brake fluid. By new, I mean fresh off the shelf, unopened. Brake fluid absorbs...
Could be several things. Air in the line, bad clutch m/s, contaminated fluid or a leaking connection. Start by flushing the entire system. You...
Both plugs take the same size socket (23mm?). They’re close to each other so easy to confuse. I’ll try to upload a picture of what this plug...
