84' K20 4x4 N/A 6.2L diesel, My baby. Donor vehicle is a 82' 6.2L 4x2 that has been " rebuilt " 2 1/2 yrs ago.
I pulled my motor and replaced w/ the rebuilt.
She sounds strong and I even drove her around yesterday, a bit.
Problem is when I let off the gas pedal she stalls.
When I ease off the gas pedal she will NOT stall.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.\
Whole job took me about 20 hrs...no book, no manual, and with very little help.

The only issue with the truck that I have found is the speedometer. It seems to not operate until it reaches about 65mph, then works just fine until you shut down the truck, then go through the same thing the next time it starts. The owner said his mechanic claimed the sensor could be dirty. Is there a servo moter behind the dash that would effect this, and what would be a good way to troubleshoot this before buying several parts? I have been told the servo can be an issue, and that the speed sensor on the tranny is not really prone to issues. The sensor would be an easier replacement I would think. Any insite would be great. Thanks.

By the way, I know this is a premature post as I will not have the truck for a few days. I just want to get started as soon as possible.

I changed the injecters with dieselcare.com performance marine diesel fuel injector nozzles. I had a few leaking injecters but i fixed that, then i had a leaking heater element in the fuel filter housing, and fixed that, then i had a lot of jerking and crap going on so i relocated the PMD with a new one, i sill had a small fuel leak so i pulled the intake and changed rubber hoses. i don't see a leak so i think i got it licked! BUT.......now whe i give it full throttle i get the slight jerking like it's not getting enough fuel but only during WOT or when it's under a load. I have installed a new vacuum line to the wastegate, new fuel filter, new injecter nozzles. Any ideas as what it might be?????????????????????????????????? ]]> Chevy/GMC 6.2L and 6.5L maxumpower http://www.dieselbombers.com/chevy-gmc-6-2l-6-5l/35912-6-5-pos-but-might-my-fault.html http://www.dieselbombers.com/chevy-gmc-6-2l-6-5l/35770-99-2000-difference.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:31:23 GMT anyone know the difference between the pre-2000 and the 2000 chevy 6.5 turbo diesel?

I made a mistake and put on 3" pipes with Magnaflow muffler, but I kind of lost that diesel sound. The biggest reason I guess is the bends they made, by crashing the pipes instead of mandrel bend. The down pipe is stock, and just 3 inch down from there, what I was wondering if anyone upgraded to 4 inch system, and if there are benefits or just waste of money. I looked at the SSD stainless system for $499, would that be a good choice, or please I'm open to suggestions.

I purchased my first diesel truck a few minths ago and I know what you are saying "what took you so long?" When I pruchased it I noticed when I accelerated the oil pressure gauge would stock flickering and jumping around and the check gauges light would come on. I ded check the oil level and oil pressure and that is all good. 60psi warm and cruising. It only happens when I accelerate. Once I am up to speed and cruising it stops doing it. It sounds electrical to me. I had a gas suburban that did this every once in a while but it would do that any time. Like I said I am new to the diesel scene so everything is a little different. I don't even know where the oil pressure sensor is to check the wires or replace it. Any help would be appreciated.

The guy told me it was a rebuilt motor but it turns out it was a factory crate motor from a local dealership. Anyways, the serpentine belt just started the jump off..... it came off 3 times yesterday and it only came off while i was starting the truck. if it stayed on during the start then it would stay on with no problem. i got to looking at the altenator as i was releasing the idler pulley while putting the belt on the last time and as i released the idler the alt would move....it was minimal movement lets say about an 1/8 to 3/16" but enough i could notice it...SO..... my question is..... anyone ever hear of the top alt bracket losing its shape or strength ? I havent but who knows.....my quick fix for the last time it popped off was taking 2 quarters out of my pocket and wedging them underneath the alt bracket ..... guess what....started up 15 times today with no problems
