Engine is TOASTED

[luvrbus]

Yep that engine was too clean around around the exhaust and turbo area to have serious problems.I still don't believe he has a problem that maybe a set of injectors and tune up won't cure,a simple air gap adjustment could cause his symptoms

i am super curious as to why he had a recommended DD wrench to look the problem over and drove away...

what's up Sean ?

Don,

I had the reccomended DD wrench in Spokane look it over.

It worked out great.  Damian was solid and was very helpful.

On the other hand the problem returned.  It appears to be a transmission problem.  Ill post more about it later.

We are currently fine and will have the transmission looked at when we get to Portland Area.

Ill update on that in November when we get there.

Thanks guys.

If he needs a in frame I know a guy that has a set of 6v92 Detroit liners and pistons huh Scott 

Lol. It crossed my mind.....that would hopefully give us a lifetime supply of good bus karma lol. But I don't believe in Karma so not sure where that leaves us. Trans issue should be less $$. Keep us updated shanks

Shanks, I know this is really elementary, but my 9 was running terribly and zero power until we finally realized the fuel filters were the wrong micron rating. Just a thought

Scott - Just replaced the filters.  Pretty sure its the tranny.
