Wrong seat for for a black strip 1066 and wrong 3 point arms what you have were first on a the 86 siers I know this because we had a 1976 1066 and a 1977 1086 both were bought new from the dealer in sleepyeye mn so your tractor is not original.
Man as a military brat I have learned every military style of living there is and I believe that this is the most beautiful and Free roaming experience you can get. Man I’ll tell ya, $9000 comes my way best believe you’ll see me in one.
How did y’all go about getting the engine unstuck I have the same tractor that was sitting for 20 years and my engine is stuck also do you have any tips or trucks?
Yep exactly right, about 5 years later we finally got around to pulling that head off and exhaust valve hadn't been sealing for quite sometime. Ended up finding a head in better condition to re-seal.
I first saw this kind of truck during VN war over 42 years ago. My first impression on it is its performance. Awesome! Hope that one day I can afford one.
I remember when I put new injectors in and started it up it had a awesome Lope and I was like hellz yeah! but then it went away about a minute later :(
Hey man can you help me out? I have a 90 first gen cummins with an NV4500 and it is the model without the ECM in the fender. I am trying to figure out how to put a tach guage on the truck what all did you use to put yours on?
the powerstrokes are the guys that have trouble starting in the winter. a straight 4 diesel engine is very simple to start. I've never plugged in my tdi and all I do is make sure the glow plugs are working and I have a strong battery. And as far as reliability, they are reliable mechanically but do have alot of window reg failures and minor interior bits that break on these models. hope that helps
Fuel screw is turned in max, Star wheel is turned down a couple turns, messed with the smoke screw a little. I've advanced the timing an 1/8". Diesel Truck Resource.com has anything you need to know about these trucks. Bunch of great guys on there.
@mascota525 Yeah, I would get a free flowing exhaust on it first and an aftermarket air filter. It'd be nice to have at least a pyrometer (exhaust temp gauge) on it too. LET ER SMOKE!!!
@cumminsdiesel1234567 hello one question, i have a 99 cummins i want to put 100hp injector, i only have evo5 edge chip in it, If i put 100hp ijectors do i need to change something else, I will also install ethier 4" or 5" exhaust to it. pls let me know thanks in advance
@Davidsfarmlives if you run 5 in to make it all the way right u have to jump the frame rail and it looks tacky underneath with a 5in pipe just hanging there
@47927411D I love it. I've never ran it with the ring in it before. I screams all the time now compared to the old h1c which would only whistle under a load. It solved my problem I had with the surging under a load.
How much did the crankshaft and followers cost to replace? What kind of oil are you using at present? My 1997 Jetta 1.9L TDI with 90 hp requires synthetic oil.
@BigDan855 If the wastegate was working, yes it wouldn't be such an agressive sound. The only thing I changed was the turbo itself. With the hx35 you have to move your downpipe back an inch or so. That's the only thing you have to change though.
@BigDan855 Well it's the boost pressure trying to spin the turbo impeller the other direction with a suddden loss of exhaust pressure to continue to spin the impeller. I have a HX35 on mine now. Mine surged too bad under a load with the h1c so this fixed the problem.
@Trex600Pilot I had to buy a pickup unit from isspro to hook into the tach. If my original crank sensor was working right I would just plug it in under the dash to the factroy wiring harness.
@91CTD I;ve got a k&n air filter which opens it up a little and lets moree sound out through the intake. My hx35's wastegate is disconnected which allows me to build just a hair above 35 psi which is where I'd like it. With a straight pipe u should be able to hear it whistling and barking when ur under boost and suddenlly let off the go go peddle.
why doesn't my 93 make that sound between shifts!!! it pisses me off. i put on a 12cm housing and wired the wastegate shut and it has a 3" straight exhaust. Does your truck have an upgraded intake or anything? mines all stock. i know the hx35 is a little noisier than the h1c but come one my turbo is silent
