Great video Mike, LOVE the gravy jobs from time to time, oh just a friendly tip on removing those intakes, just unbolt the intake cover from the intake and you can sneak it out underneath without fighting the harness connections on the backside of the cover...once the intake is out...plenty of access 😎 Still by far one of the easiest V8's to tear down IMHO...soooooo, thanks GM...lifters all day! 😊

@@GoTechTraining I had to hire someone to do most the work I've lost all patience to work on stuff because the engineers designing stuff now a day have obviously never worked on a car in their life. A head light bulb should consist of poping the hood reaching behind the headlight and boom it's out. Not step one raise the vehicle and remove wheel and inner fender liner...

@GoTech hey man I love your videos, you're very logical and evidence driven so i wanted to ask you a quick question. I got a car that will turn over but not start, there are no engine codes, the scan tool does say there are emissions DTC detected and all of the emissions systems are flashing on the scan tool egr, o2, evap, and one other. The other thing is there was no cel before the issue, but now the cel will flash 4 times real slow with the car in the ON position before even trying to start it. It has over a 1/4 tank of gas and a fully charged battery. Is it emission related or misfire related, or both ?

I suppose the turning of crank was to get the cam lobe on the low side tht drives pump ?

The struggle was real!!. This was one of my favorite videos watching you struggle with that intake welcome to my life on a daily lmao Bet you loved those 4 Xmas trees??

Update: reluctantly ordered the tool for $58. For those who may want to measure with a dowel or other gauge, it’s 1 - 5/16” deep. Does anyone happen to have the measurement of the depth to the cam flat lobe instead of pulling a plug and looking for TDC on exhaust stroke or purchasing the tool you drop in for nearly $70 for (hopefully) a 1 time use for a DIY'r? Seems like it would be easy to measure with a dowel rod or something if we knew the depth. I've searched and can't believe someone hasn't posted it by now.

I am getting a steady 45 psi on my car 2011 suburban 5.3. I feel like its dumping fuel because my fuel gauge goes down more than normal. I see everyone else mention 50 to 60 at the rails but i am using my expensive x431 scan tool to check everything. All of a sudden after 1 month of using e85 its been extremely bad. Fuel gauge drops fast. I cant find no wet fuel leaks by the engine compartment. My mpg normal at 15 to 18. Now feels like 6. I am also using a scan gauge to read the mpgs and its not bad hwy is 18mpg both dash and scan gaugeii. What the hell is there a small leak some where only when its on?

@throttlebottle5906

2 жыл бұрын

I think the deal is, with the cam follower raised up you'd have to greatly compress the spring, including the one inside the pump and piston, the drive rod may not line up right and the bolts probably won't be threaded in far enough to pull it down without tearing up the threads, it may even crack or warp the pump housing or lifter valley cover the pump bolts too. it may sound silly, but it could even cause engine block warping and alignment issues with cam bearings and more. torque values, tightening patterns and multiple passes to reach final torque is critical on engines and many other things. **so it would probably be wise to place the engine at TDC so the load is off the pump as much as possible

So the num 1cyl has to be at TDC on the exhaust stroke this time, not compression, as is usual? of course I may never have to do one of those, but I like to know.

@GoTechTraining

Hi Osama, It may damage the pump or cam because you could be bolting it down against the spring pressure of the pump. Keeping the engine in first cylinder position keeps the high side of the camshaft lobe down so the pump will sit flush when you bolt it down. I hope this helps! Ryan Wilsing

Hi Osama, If he got the pump installed and seated it should be ok. The main reason you should locate the engine is so you don't force the pump down with the bolts. If your car is misfiring it could be from fuel pressure but, it also could be caused by several other factors. Anytime you replace a high pressure fuel pump on this vehicle you should locate the engine, old or new I hope this helps Ryan Wilsing

People get so scared of fuel under pressure in the fuel rail. As a liquid, fuel is not compressible, the release of pressure when you disconnect the fuel rail line will only result in a very, very small volume of fuel being released, pretty much the equivalent amount of the expansion of the fuel rails and lines themselves.

900 psi is not that much it's less than a small pressure washer....try doing it with 32000 psi from a diesel ....plus it's not good to run the pump out of diesel it's the only thing that lubes it...
