  1. Sorry guys I had to breathe a bit I was getting pissed off not at you all by no means just frustrated I got excited when I thought we where on to something with the filter and bummed that it’s gone .. so I know that this is not ideal but I’ve done it before I’m gona take compressor half apart and clean it and run alcohol or brake clean through the air lines and try to get some of the oil pushed out I have ordered a new remaned compressor with no filter I gotta have clean air do you all agree on that for sure
  2. When she turned key on all it did was move barely then stopped didn’t go down till I had her rev it up
  3. You think the soot is coming from the actuator itself those 2 holes is where that filter should be
  4. It’s everywhere exhaust leak but havin trouble pinpointing that did it load as a video
  5. Thanks guys very much .. so I took a video of waste gate if it will load I’m gona try and post it I started it the second she started the truck
  6. fellas I’m paying very close attention to everything your telling me plse don’t think ill of me I just don’t know these motors I’m really giving it All I have I’m goin up now my wife just got home I’m gona have he watch the waste gate and see if ifs stroking.. the sound Change does happen but also happen when im driving it sometimes it will be real low sounding like it’s bubbling then go the Kirby sound.. I did not even see a place where that filter would have been if it had been there I spent 45 min looking at the oil filter ecm and that whole side of the motor
  7. So let’s assume this filter isn’t on the truck what now I’m gona look again but there is absolutely no airline running down behind the oil filters and from the diagram I thought that that line that it is running out of that valve that I sent the picture of I don’t know what it’s called. It was supposed to run down to the filter and I followed it and it’s the one that goes to the back,
  8. Yes fjh, it got plugged in the other day at the shop and it ran worse or I thought it did but before that it’s never been plugged in since I’ve had it
  9. Oh yea it’s been deleted man for sure I followed the line out of valve in the diagram i recieved and the line that is supposed to go to the vgt has been rerouted down the frame rail towards bed and can’t tell where it goes without cuttin700 zip ties and swallowing a lb of dirt but I doubt they moved the valve to the back I took an oil filter off didn’t see anything but I probably took the wrong one off my luck line I’m talking about is an air line coming from that valve with the silver a cylinder on top on it it loops around fours to a skinny lookin valve then takes off under truck to the back that line in the pic
  10. There’s all manner of shit behind oil filters but I can’t see a filter I’ll an oil filter off this trucks so messed up man everytime I turn around it something else bout ready to just buy new e7 from big bear and put it in or I’ve got a c-13 cat sitting too
  11. Egr valve is passenger side behind turbo up on the motor correct
  12. Ya this thing is honestly a shit show no boost there’s coolant volts oil psi oil temp now oil temp is up to 230 I hope I’m telling you guys the correct motor I’m goin off paperwork I have and what vin pulled up and what that idiot told me looking at the diagram I followed hose that I’m guessing goes to it and idk man I’m lost and frustrated as hell
  13. Ya this thing is honestly a shit show no boost there’s coolant volts oil psi oil temp now oil temp is up to 230 red lines at 250 not sure why intercooler is where it is but can’t change that I really want this damn thing to run right goin to try and find a filter is where I described the vgt the right place you think? Inside frame rail between oil filters and gearbox
  14. What was this originally used for in this truck? I could probably stick a boost gage in that
  15. No boost gauge so I’ll have to either put one in it or find somebody that can watch that actuator and see if it’s going in and out. I wish I knew how many I was running a boost though that would help a lot aftermarket boost gauge shouldn’t be hard to come by I think I found the VGT it’s down inside the frame rail, kinda up by the steering box between the oil filters and the steering box I think that’s what it is anyway it’s covered in so much shit that need to spray everything down
  16. FJH, I didn’t have anybody to help me check what I did do was look at it with the engine off and with the engine running so off it was the stroke was up and on the stroke was down all the way bottomed out fully extended, and I’m assuming you’re talking about the actuator on the turbo side that has the metal braided line that runs across the motor into it airline and I took the line off and started it and thumbed it actuator went up and down. I will see when I get up here and stopped if one of these other drivers will look at that actuator while I turn the key off and on, I appreciate you guys going above and beyond on this there have been a couple of blogs that I’ve gotten on to try to make sense of all of it and it seemed all they wanted to do was give people a hard time and didn’t know what they were doing appreciate it fellas
