  4. No egr.

    had my guy rip the exhaust manifold off today, exhaust valves look worse then the intake .

    called the customer and told them would need further disassembly and inspection , a valve job at the least.
    Unit has multiple other issues , leaks , tires , body work , etc etc .

    they are simply going to cut there losses and buy another truck.

    One less problem in my hair, pushed it into the yard to give the raccoons and feral cats a place to hide.

  6. I’ve got one of those too, and like you, I’ve never used it either!

    Maybe its for plumbing and electrical shit that never seems to fit a normal wrench !
     
  8. The strangest issue I've encountered with an inline 4 was related to the direction the rotor turned. The owner stated it went clockwise pulled the cap and observed it it went counterclockwise. He had driven it that way for hundreds of miles! It was amazing how much better it ran when we repositioned the plug wires on the distributor cap.
