I finally have an update. Dsberman94 has it right, long story short I sent the idm to Swamps and they said it was bad. So bad it was unrepairable. I do have another idm to try tomorrow.

Well that’s the route I took. I picked up a running engine this weekend, it had an adrenaline, some other new parts like valve cover gaskets. 350-400 on cylinder compression. This leaves room for a new clutch, any recommendations? It has a luk in it now. It feels good but has slipped some...

Anyone have any info on J&K engines? They are out of Mt Juliet TN. They sell long blocks for a reasonable price. I think I would rather go with a rebuild than put a used engine that I know nothing about.

I had bought studs springs and pushrods several months ago. I sent them back when I found out my engine was done. I have called swamps several times trying to spend more money with them and have left several messages. I have a credit for the returned stuff. Makes me wonder what is going on. As...

My truck went down this summer. Engine went to machine shop and two main bearings were cooked and crank was blued there. I have been trying to work with swamps and that hasn’t been to easy. Anyway looks like $10K for them to rebuild everything with good parts and dyno engine also. My local guy I...

Ok on #1 cylinder I removed the rockers and pushrods, I assume the valve closest to the front of the motor is the exhaust and the one towards the rear of the engine is the intake. If this is the case the pushrod on the intake is bent pretty good, hopefully causing my compression issue.

So some bad news, while working on the truck I let a blue paper rag get sucked through the engine. I did a compression check and #1 cylinder is completely dead. #7 is at 300. 3,5,6,8 are about 350-360 2 and 4 are above 400. I assume the values are stuck open with rag in them on #1? What is next...

I checked for marks on the cps, none there. I have been using LE oil for about 4 intervals. I thought about sending IDM to Swamps to check it, unless there is another way to check it.? I worked the old girl pretty hard last month. I hauled 143 tons of logs to the mill, 16 loads. Was only about...

Magnum, the hp oil could be a problem I guess but I will have to get it back together and go for a drive to monitor oil pressure. And as you said already that would throw a code.? gohouston, I assume since it has 60-65 psi fuel that would rule fuel out as a problem. My truck sputters, runs...

So i redid the continuity test to 42 pin connector and injector wiring, with all the injectors unplugged, .4 ohms was the highest reading. I am going to put valve covers back on unless there is anything else to check while I am in there? I am not sure what to check next. I did start it this...

I was checking for codes often while driving, only had the cps code once. No other codes, frustrating.

Thanks for the replies all. I think I will have to redo the continuity test, some of the injectors were still plugged in.

I will have to put everything back together and go for a drive, I don't remember what high pressure oil was doing. Do you think the hpop may be giving up? I am a bit confused on the 42 pin connector. I was getting continuity from injector wiring to more than one pin on the connector. Do they...

Ok put my riff raff 3” plenum inserts in I’ve had for a few years. Ohmed drivers side injector wiring back to 42 plug connector, 3.2 was the highest reading...what next? Other side on ohming injector wiring?

Ok so I ohmed the three wires back to the big square block on fender. All good. Also passed buzz test.

I need a little help please. Truck in signature, truck ran flawlessly for years. Last problem was cps 4 years ago. Same symptoms now, got a dtc for the cps, rough idle, low on power. You know cps issues. Put a parts store black and grey and also a ford gray one, all same results. Took chip out...

Fixed Oring at the dipstick, not to bad of a job.

Mine had a noticeable tick, it was the exhaust manifold on drivers side. I put a gasket on the manifold when I did the t-4 swap.

I hauled some logs today, cut them off our place. 5 trees

Thanks for the replies, new line it is.
