  4. Pcv vacuum leak?

    in General SS

    I kept the intake and rails off of my 5.3 to put on the lq9. I thought of that too and that's why I asked him what year truck the tune was from. He told me 03 but maybe it was a late 03. I need to get him to check the IFR table to make sure, hes just always so busy and a duramax tuner mostly. first cammed ls motor hes tuned really. hes a smart guy and datalogged/tuned for a while, trying to give the benefit of the doubt lol.... that's why I want a zippy tune in the end though. It's damn cold here so the ambition to go outside is low but I'm gonna plug it and see if it helps. Might just have to wait for the new tune to see any progress. :(

    Just keeping the intake and rails won't make any difference in what the tune is set up for. They have totally different ifr and pulse settings to name a few.

    Hey thanks for the diagram of the oil path Ryan...too bad it's so damn small! And what happened to your other .01? Can't give a whole .02 to this topic? :loser:

    OK OK! I'm sorry! I thought you were used to looking at little things so you'd have your magnifying glass with you. :fart:

     

    No I will not give my other .01 cause I'm a cheap ass that may need it later on.

     

    Here is a bigger pic for you. (tried on my phone last time.)

    Here is the oiling system passage diagram.

    Pressure at the filter with gauge, no pressure with filter. Either the bypass on the cooler mount block is blocked (which was checked and isn't) or the filter is blocking it up with either the wrong filter, crap filter (fram) or the outlet between the filter and sensor is blocked. You have pressure at the filter, oil and pressure at the cooler lines, pressure to the sensor with the filter off and gauge installed. You also mentioned you had no lifter tick with the filter removed. This means the pump is pumping oil and not aerating the oil. The filter is about the only thing that can be the issue. I have had a bad o-ring and know that you will more than likely have pressure, but the flow of oil won't be there. If the system builds pressure its either oil pressure (won't have a ticking at the lifters), the oil pressure is aerated (has oil and air going through the system and not allowing the lifters to pump up and causes a tick and or knock) or its straight up air ( will have major damage and the ticking is just the warning. The culprit is prob the o-ring.

    This is my .01 on this.

  18. Fun on the lake

    Here is a vid I took of my buddys boat that I helped tune, and did some other work to. Got it to 86mph at 3/4 throttle and had some issues with the new distributors. Twin 572's with a good amount of work done to them. We ended up locking the timing after this and it runs even better now. This was his 5th time driving the boat so he was getting used to it. He has another boat with a 502 and Procharger that is faster.
