Hissing from drivers side.

Put a scanner on it and see what the cranking ICP is. Also, what is the fuel pressue?

Don't throw parts at it, diagnosis the issue.

Sounds good. When do you want to bring your scanner over?

It won't tell you anything about fuel pressure. The PCM does not monitor fuel pressure.

Plugged it in for 20 minutes and it started right up. Guess I need to check the relay.

Yes and the connections on top and under the valve cover the wires burn sometimes. Check the relay first and be positive its good.. Glad that Glowplugs seem to be your issue.

I forgot to tell Dp tuner that I had a 15° hpop instead of a 17°...
Would that make a difference with tuning anyone? I'm waiting on a can back from Dp. Just wondering. Broke my new flexplate. It's warrantied.
I'm guessing those longer guide pins from the block on my old engine need to replace the shorter ones on my obs engine. Or Napa just has junk... any thoughts internet? Lol

The relay was bad. After a 4 day fiasco with an incompetent shop it got fixed.
Ever hear of a diesel mechanic that didn't know what I glow plug relay was? I thought the wiring was the problem because it was a new relay. Shouldn't have even taken it in. They only charged me for parts though.

my new engine had shorter house pins for the trans bellhousing than my new engine did. Would that likely be my reason for breaking another flexplate? What kinda other things should I check that would cause my flexplate to break?

Make sure the tc is in all the way.. Sounds like you found your issues tho... Sounds like it never was seated properly.

 

[benjamindurtka]

Talking about the pins?

Yea if the pin was two long to seat all the way into the trans then was pulling on the converter and cracking the plate

 

[benjamindurtka]

No. To short. Didn't even go into the trans bellhousing. Just in the adapter.

Same concept that was your issue... Trans and motor were twisting. Separate.

 

[benjamindurtka]

Gotcha. Any idea if there is a tool for those pins or just vice grips and heat?

I think they just have something like red loctite holding them in. Being machined like they are they are very hard to get ahold of with anything. Maybe order new ones and try to get a hold of a welder to get a nut on the end and twist them out?
