Swole's Infamy of Carnage Continues!!

Sorry David.... crapin up your thread here...wanted to ask why your so gung ho to pull the head? I'd check the injectors out, and if they pass do a blow down to check the integrity of the cylinders. Flat edge the valves if a seat is in question.

No use jerkin off in the dark. If the head can stay in place why screw up a good seal.

Oh and to throw another wrench in the mix. I have seen a pintle stick when it was hot and free up when it cooled. Did you guys try a start up when it was cold? Rail pressure?
 
Alright Swole thing's are getting out of hand maybe the truck is just cursed just buy a new one and start over.

If not I think I might have the solution for you.

Call Woodruff. Tell Josh you need a Billet Block Billet Rod's
Call Sheid tell them you want a Billet Head
Call Mahle cause you are going to need some Billet Piston's
Call Don tell him you need Some Custom Billet Injectors and Cam
Call Illinois crank tell them you need a Billet Crank

Just go Billet Everything and if you mess that up then your screwed.

I hope everything works out well. Maybe might be time to switch to 03 electronic's or something man.

Cause thing's are not working out for you man.
 
I have facts, borescope pictures, and flow charts. I want to know why Don says one thing, then changes his story when it suits the issue. Same as the turbocharger inquiry, your naive if you think I don't have proof.

Proof of what?

Problems with Don's injectors, or what you do differently that makes your product a superior product?

Why would your injectors have less problems with pressure spikes than anyone else's?

What do you do to make sure that customers never have injector problems, and how is it different than what Don does?

All I'm saying is this: you really seem to have an bone to pick with Don. I'd love to know why. I think most of the folks on this forum have noticed your ability to question question question.. I'd just like to see an answer or two. If all these other folks are doing it wrong, how are you doing it right? How do you have no failures with your common rail injectors, where F1 has problems? What's different?
 
I've given plenty of answers, and more information than most are willing to share. I asked here, seemed odd. If the electro sac type nozzle was an issue, why would Bosch have moved that direction in the last few years for the first time for on road applications? The answers given by some don't match the facts. Read my questions more carefully, unless you cannot distinguish insight.
 
sorry to heary about your misfortune again....maybe its time to drop a p-pump 24v or 12v in and build that for high hp so you dont have as many parts to rely on, or turn the motor down to very mild 550 as a tow rig, and build a 12v race truck as a few have said in past posts....either way good luck.
 
I remember that thread.

Are you suggest here, right now, that you have an injector that will not fail under the extreme rail pressures that folks like Swole have experienced?

That the tips will not fail. That the bodies will not fail. That you are doing "something" to these injectors, and they are able to withstand higher pressures than mach injectors? That's all I'm getting at man! You go into these threads, and you post these cryptic responses that say a bunch without saying anything. This one really gets my goat:

and if you have changed the before mentioned methods, it is for the best.

What are you saying here? You do it better? How do you balance your compressor wheels?

I'm not trying to start a **** show here. I'm honestly, 100% curious/interested/willing to learn/supportive of the information you provide. But the cryptic messages are just a bit much for me. You do it better, say so. You know a better route, spout it.

You'll pick up a hell of a lot more business by telling folks how you do it right rather than how your competition does it wrong.
 
Sorry to hear about the luck. I think you have a knack for finding the weak link in any given system.
 
i think i would be mad enough to p-pump it too., maybe a piece of trash was in your fuel system and just got knocked loose and is f-ing with an injector, might just be a simple fix, do your connector tubes have edge filters
 
as far as turbo failure: he said he was at cruise speed/rpm, im sure the turbos are more prone to let go under high boost and over speed. I would think this would have been detected under normal driving if the turbo had slop in the shaft
 
what david really needs to do is take it apart/ either injectors or .......... to see what the real problem is......... until then we are ALL JUST GUESSING at what could be wrong!!!!

maybe Jeff likes Davids truck so much..... he's doing things to keep it at the garage longer........ or just likes seeing Davids pretty face.:lolly:

hahahahahhahahahahahahahaaha j/k

The lack of QC and information is what Smokem is trying to relay. If you would look through these so called "cryptic" reponses and do some research on the given parts you will achieve your disclosure. I have never come across any given statement he conveys that displays my parts are better than yours.

I'm not trying to pick up business here. I'm simply relaying, in both threads, what I have seen from an educated point of view that the general public may not be aware of, a consumer guide of sorts. If your looking for CR injectors this is my recommendation, if your looking for turbochargers this is my recommendation. It's odd to me that people could deal with a company that will give answers, along with a quality product, but choose to pay someone that won't.
 
Worked about 18 hrs yesterday and finally got my lazy a$$ up. On my way down now to get started.

Will keep ya posted.
 
I hope its something simple for you this time. Maybe it's a turbo and not something internal.

There ya go. Answers. Well, some at least. You still haven't mentioned why those balancing techniques are inferior to whatever preference you have... or if you're stating your injectors won't fail because of some special black magic voodoo you have in your shop... or... Well, **** it. I guess you didn't answer any of the important questions I asked. I'll just drop it.

If you want to create a consumer guide of sorts, at least explain the other options and why they work. If any true consumer advocate group started reviewing a product and saying "this is the product, it sucks, QC is terrible, and there are better options" without ever mentioning what the other options are and why they are better... They are going to lose credability rather quickly. The links to your recommendations are much appreciated. But without given a lick of information as to why you would recommend these companies over others, what they do differently and why they do it, it is just more white noise in the static of what this forum used to be.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good smoke switch?

Your a bit dense aren't you? Make a phone call, I'm not going to hold your hand. Your the type of person to stomp your feet and demand answers, yet out of many posts, in many threads, there was a great amount of technical information given. But since these threads weren't about how great someone or something was, they were put to the wayside. Truth of the matter is, people want to buy parts with fancy names and flashy boxes.
