I am doing an engine swap on one of my CRD's (225k miles and dropped a valve). I have the engine out and stripping off accessories to put on the replacement. What is the silver line with the green banjo nut in the picture below: I've posted this before, but here is a picture of what happens when a valve is dropped: |

Looks like the line from the vacuum pump. |

#13 on the diagram is the bolt and tab that stabilize the other end of this line which mounts to the Flow Control Valve body, I believe. If you install Weeks 1 elbow kit, it comes with a special L bracket that mounts it to the intake manifold instead. |

Glow plug comes in from the intake side, but the missing valve is on the side opposite of the glow plug. Therefore, exhaust valve.Jay ne Ohio wrote: |

The previous owner was a poster on here (I think his name was DieselGuy). I was hoping it was just a bad head gasket or rockers but......... Looks like I'll have about $500 in fixing it as the guy gave me a spare engine (100k miles) and head in the deal. I'll put a liner, piston and rod in the bad engine and keep it as a spare short block. The liners are showing some wear at 225k, but I doubt I'll ever put many miles on it if it ever gets used. |

Ok different approach, want to buy a short block with a dropped valve in #4?
