Not sure what you mean by this.....

Everything is back home now. Sure glad Dad bought my old truck and was available to come get the trailer. The '01 did pretty good actually pulling it back. Watching the '03 get towed home by a Chev for 2 days was painful to my ego though.

Going to tear into it this weekend. Guess I should probably start with a compression test and then probably pull the head.

Tate are you in town these days? I'd like to borrow that compression tester if possible.

oh sorry. I was trying to ask what they measured the blowby at. what was the actual measurement. usually the number is displayed as inches of water.

Anybody know any good salvage auctions? I've been wanting to go back to an automatic truck for awhile and am thinking maybe I could find a wrecked one with good frame/drivetrain and swap over my cab and box..... just a thought.

I should be home sometime this week. Its just the adapter that I have, but I believe ccmckee has the full meal deal minus the 24v adapter. Send him a PM to see if he still has it. Hopefully we can get you fully outfitted.

I got a line on a 2003 in fairly good shape. Complete truck.

Could always put in a P pump and forget that electronic stuff. Could easily put in a 24V and P pump conversion lines, being that your truck is a stick. Only reason I suggest the 24v is that the injection lines are cheaper for a 24v engine than a CR.
