    LB7: Injectors, bent rods, or?

    Probably 5. It worked out though, saved me from a bad tank of fuel in the beginning so I wasn't too eager to pull it. I've got a replacement motor from AD but never got to it. That's why I'll try a pump before injectors. I know... :poop:

    LB7: Injectors, bent rods, or?

    The truck died a few weeks ago but it turned out to be a bad filter head. I put a new one on and decided to pull out the dead Airdog that I've been pulling fuel through (plus the stock one) for 6 years. It's been running about the same, still loud and rattly when cold. I did the compression...

    LB7: Injectors, bent rods, or?

    Hi to all, I've been AWOL for sometime. Blackie has been going down hill the last couple winters. Knocking and fuel smoke that basically clears up after 30 - 60 seconds when it's below freezing, proportional to coldness. Runs great as it has for the last 6 years when warm except a bit stinky...

    What is your fuel efficient DD?

    04 Subaru Forester XT 2.5l turbo. In the midst of bolt ons, it's kinda fun when it's so cheap. It's not very fuel efficient but it's MUCH better on tires than the dually.

    LB7 Turbo Advice

    It's the lag that I want to improve. Since the bigger I/C I've lost some response. Tuning will help but what is the least laggy IHI/S475 set up?

    heated seats problem

    I had similar symptoms when my element burnt out. I replaced the drivers seat bottom element (it was visibly burnt) and it's been perfect for several years now. It's not difficult to do.
