Message: [QUOTE="Charles, post: 1567267, member: 103"] My timeline for swapping out my fully filled and girdled engine for a fully water-jacketed engine in my 02 DD was moved up when the "exhaust leak" I kept chasing for the last 4 months or so, while taking apart everything pre-turbo, including the turbo itself multiple times seems to have been a wrist-pin/ piston slap sound. Had a real, real bad explosion due to a BS cam sensor the first day I started driving this truck that actually blew an enormous fire ball out the tailpipe and shut the truck right off. Think I hurt it and the ole girl has just been soldiering on. Yanked it out and sure enough, pin movement and some scuffing, so fully watered engine is going in. When I have time to freshen up the filled engine, I plan to try and work up a MEUI system on the stand and then put it back in my old Red 99 single cab and see what happens. If it does what it should, a very large set of compounds will follow as well as some dyno time. But time...... is so hard to come by.... Side note..... I had Cass work up a set of 3/2's with some B-Code VOP to try in this engine since it has already eaten a few nozzles over the years, in case we had a failure, and they are the answer. Best injectors I have ever run. Ever. Never had a 7.3 that didn't need any glowplug like this for normal cold cranking. It just cranks. In winter it would need the glowplugs, but just normal driving through spring, summer and fall, just fires right off. Idle haze is way, way down all the time. The higher VOP is what the engine wanted with the 200. [/QUOTE]
