and throw all the parts in a pile, rather than lining them up, marking them, inspecting them during tear down, and so-on.. I have had the pleasure of building engines that I didnt tear down.. my favorite thing was finding rod caps in the speedy dry that I had to sweep out from under the engine, or MP eng. brake plungers laying in the frame rail or on the floor, no way to know which rocker they came from... yeah... good times.. Dont miss that at all.. I am sure you are keeping them organized as they go... Jojo

I prefer to do the diag. myself.. PTT is useful, but I have to use MY Brain and 6 senses.. just sayin' -
I found CBR useful at times, and tried to contribute as well.. jojo

ok,, I missed the part about blowing back through the intake, I just read back over the post.. and Mark is showing you pics of a great tool to own,, any chance you checked compression before digging deep? Just curious, and I am really out of ideas on this one.. Good luck to you. Keep in touch.. jojo -
I just looked again,,, is #4 head gasket leaking coolant??
-
the grime between the heads tells me that the fuel cross over tube is leaking and washing oil from leaking valve cover gaskets. and yes EUP's can leak outside, typicaly fuel, which will mix with the other fluids to make the mess you have, and the fuel return line under the chrome heat shields will do the same thing.. also,, all of the lower exhaust studs are live, and can leak oil from the pushrod bores.. Pressure wash the engine, and run it hard to see just where its coming from... jojo

let me clarify... no computer operating the fan clutch.. yes, when they are gunked up, they dont work right.. his is only 8 months old... so maybe it needs to be cleaned and then re-tested... sorry, I'm new when it comes to an E-Tech....
-
no computer.... just mechanical operation.. Rare these days...
-
they will turn by hand when cold, and yes, with engine running, they are engaged until they warm up a little, them they are controled by the heat off the cooling pac (radiator, c.a.c., A/C condensor) .. I guess we are saying the same thing in different ways.. jojo
-
Onyx.... sir.... He has a viscous fan, not an air op fan.. sorry bud...
-
should not move the belt. ever... if belt tension is correct
-
the viscous clutch has resistance when cold but will turn.. they hum during warm up, then drop out when the clutch warms up... then when 185 degrees or more if running A/C, comes through the radiator, the pigtail on the front opens up and engages the fluid into the clutch inside the assembly.. serp belt?? -or- no tensioner, alt is on a banana bar?
-
The viscous fan clutch is one of the best ones... When you say it stays engaged all the time, do you mean for 10 - 15 while the engine warms up? and does it fade in and fade out as you drive? they start out a bit stiff when cold, but as they warm up they loosen up, and then when heat comes off the radiator, the pigtail on the front grows and allows the oil inside to pass through the veins to grab a hold of the clutch and make the fan rigid, until the air coming in cools off... they are self adjusting.. jojo

Hell Yeah !!! O.D.

Joey Mack replied to ChallengeDave's topic in Engine and Transmission
I bet you are right.. Myself,,,, In my mind was questioning how the truck ran good for 20,000 + miles, and now this? A sticking celenoid could happen during that time frame. and I did ask about an overspeed on the engine, but since this doesnt have a VECU, he cant find that info... anyway,,, you need to be on this thread... jojo
