Quote from: Special T on February 10, 2011, 12:09:52 PM6x6x6 funny you mention the water.. When i was in shop class in HS we build a water tank with a carb jet/hose attachment that hung over the throat of the barrels of the carb.. The vacuum of running the engine would draw small amounts of water into the engine... Water expands more than air fuel so that if you get the right amount of water flowing in you get more power and fuel economy...Add a little methanol to that water, and it gets even better in diesels. Such as the windshield washer fluid that contains methanol injected with a multiple stage pump and jet system into the intake horn.Kinda like a poor man's giggle gas.

Fuel pressure gauge too.

no...white one, quad cab..2008...Charlie somethingorother.You can do a search on youtube and see it at the Moses tractor pulls. We did a warranty heater box repair on it.
Jackalope... Why do you think dealers and Semi truck co like Freightliner, Motor trucks etc have such hard hard time with p/u truck diesels? I've taken my rig to all of the above and got BS answers and parts thrown at the truck... Everyone i've talked to said take it to a diesel shop like Dynomite Diesel...
I guess i just mean i have had lots of trouble with getting the diesel related stuff fixed at dealerships, and i've tried more than one... The dealerships did fine on the non engine related stuff... And i have heard my problems echoed by other diesel owners... Specifically fuel system issues pumps, injectors pressure vales and the such... and my rig is bone stock..
A couple years ago I almost went to work for a place in Snohomish...I think it was Dynamic Diesel maybe?Seemed like nice people, I couldn't speak for the quality of their work.I wondered if Special T took his truck to Rairdons up there...I think they're in Bellingham.

I did have Rairdon's B-ham successfully diagnose and replace an injector at 25k after Karmart said it was bad fuel. The white smoke and 1/4 over full on the dip stick made it kind of obvious though.
