Stock truck with bottomed out star wheel?????
 
Me and my dad purchased (see sig) and we took the cap off the fuel pump and reached the starwheel in the bottom. As everyone was tellin us to do they said to bottom it out for more fuel and smoke. Well when we got to turning it clockwise it wouldnt budge? but no one had been in the pump before? Wats up wit tht?

Does it turn counter clock wise??

1st genny nut 11-28-2009 10:11 AM

not at all its bottomed out

wildbill 11-28-2009 10:14 AM

No no, if you couldn't turn CW, was wondering if you could turn it CCW to rule out a sticky bolt.

i turned my star wheel down on my truck. it won't hurt it you'll notice more smoke when your turbo spools up but if you want more power you needa make sure you install guages

12vcummins96 11-29-2009 10:57 AM

u will get it hot adjusting that wheel u need guages so it can bee fine tuned

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 11:12 AM

tht wheel was all the way down from factory cause when we went in to adjust the fuel pin nothin was touched the cap was still on where the smoke screw was it was a virgin pump:humm: do u think we should back it off the truck runs great tho

12vcummins96 11-29-2009 12:43 PM

i wouldnt if it is running great just becarful until you get some guages:c:

I bet a previous owner turned it down.

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 01:09 PM

no everythin on the pump was untouched cause even when we took the top off where the fuel cone is we went down to the bottom of it and the starwheel was all the way down. and ik it was untouched because we turned the starwheel and we left marks in it being very careful wierd huh?

RSWORDS 11-29-2009 01:30 PM

I'll bet it was not un touched, It was very common to do little mods to these trucks. Remember, someone has had almost 20 years to mess with it! :D

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 01:33 PM

ya but thts tru but even the screws to the top were still part of the top like the paint to the screws and the top were still together

RSWORDS 11-29-2009 01:49 PM

ok

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 01:52 PM

have u heard bout the htt turbos n the gds 60mm upgrd. A guy said tht the gds is just as good but half the money of the htt but both are upgrade kits

RSWORDS 11-29-2009 01:56 PM

do you mean a whole htt turbo or just thier upgrade? The upgrades are the same.

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 01:58 PM

the upgrades only. The gds upgrade is half of the htt upgrade why is tht does the htt have something the gds doesnt?

RSWORDS 11-29-2009 02:08 PM

nothing, they are both pretty much H1E compressor wheels and housings.

1st genny nut 11-29-2009 02:13 PM
