injector cups

[78f100]

The green is very thin like water. I'm sure it has strength differences also.

I just did some it also came with the green locktight

I used green 6120 loctite, came with the cups from riffraff. The difference is the sealing clearance for what the specific loctite is rated for. Take your time, make a dry, oil free seal

A little

Truck started like normal today now I'm work on getting the rest of the diesel out of the cooling system time for simple green and a few flushs

it usually takes 30 miles of solid driving(i prefer highway with out OD) to get all the air out of your oil system. That was the reason of the extended crank. glad you got it all done though. how were the rear 2 cylinders?

Dawn Dish soap works best to get all the diesel and junk out.

7 and 8 were just as easy as the front cyl I used my phone to take pics of the bord to make sure it was clean and dry. I have put about 290 miles on the truck, and flushed for an hour and drained the the water every day it looks like I have fuel in it still. Any ideas or am I being impatient

 

[ghohouston]

It takes A LOT of flushing to get all the fuel out. Go buy some powdered cascade dishwasher detergent and put a cup or so in the degas bottle. That has always worked well for flushing oil or fuel out of coolant systems for me.

 

[steele86]

okay I don't mean to be a retard but what is a degas bottle

 

[steele86]

About how long should leave the soap in the engine before I flush again?

 

[ghohouston]

Degas bottle = coolant jug. And I usually drive the truck till they get to operating tenperature, then drain, and re flush.

 

[steele86]

OK so any powder cascade dish soap right? I'm going on a50 mails trip tomorrow assume that will be OK? Sorry for the dumb questions I don't want F anything up

You should be fine to drive a 50 mile trip with the cascade in there
