I am glad you still enjoy it. I really like the way the white looks. I would prefer white over the black and khaki colors that I have.
I noticed that you didn't mention rockers in your list of repairs/replacement parts. That is encouraging to know that you have not had any issues with them yet. I had actually bought new rockers/lifters and a complete timing belt kit for the first one I bought before I knew the head was cracked.
The PO of the second one had the timing belt and associated components replaced about 9K before I bought it. He also gave me a brand new stage 1 and 2 Weeks kit that he had not yet installed, along with the Samco intercooler hoses. I am glad I at least have those items already. I am expecting the torque converter replacement to hit me at some point.
You have not had to replace your turbo yet either? That's awesome!
So far no turbo or rocker problems, fingers crossed!
Get rid of the EGR ASAP!
It is an engine killer! First thing I did on day one was blocked mine off with a plate. Then a few months later, the Weeks kit was developed. I was one of the first of the batch of five he built and sold.
So if you have not at least blocked it off, do so, then get that Weeks elbow kit on it.
Change oil, Change oil, Change oil using good full synthetic 5w40 weight Diesel API rated CJ4 or better oil. I also add several ounces of Marvel Mystery Oil with every oil change. I am changing every 5k now, I started out changing it out every 3k till I got it cleaned out after EGR delete.
I add a mix of non-synthetic 2 cycle motor oil, Diesel Kleen, and Marvel Mystery Oil to fuel tank at every fill up, keep CP3 and injectors well lubricated and fuel clean.
Need help, just ask!
Where you at in NG?
