Fresh steers, yay!

Still need an inspection, oops. My wheel is also pointed closer to 1 o'clock than to noon. Nothing personal, but this is why I hate having others work on my junk. Bah.

Pretty sure I have fresh trans noise. Noticed it my last trip, louder howl than usual under no-load than under coast, neutral, or acceleration.

Appear to have a damn miss again. I have parts to make a kill box now to identify the bad hole now at least.

Not sure if I have the right slip yoke in my collection for a 271(?)

I will inquire

Will be having a "nice" chat with my tech Mike. Sorry about the steering wheel. Grrrr

Slacked off Sunday instead of fixing this.

Need to twist the drag link adjuster and then going to swap the valve cover seal+harness and see if the misfire cleans up.

Popped a code Saturday, #2 again. Will start swapping parts and also build an injector kill box from my spare parts to further diag if the harness doesn't take care of it.

Very unimpressed with the quality of the aftermarket valve cover seal/ harness. It uses a bunch of zip ties instead of nicely molded wire guides, had one nicked wire right out of the box, and most importantly, the front 3 holes died entirely after I tightened everything down. A quick start before I buttoned it up sounded like #2 was still having issues but its tough to tell with no load. I was going to go for a test drive and then went from 5 cyl to 3.

So fed up working in the dark in my driveway. Deal with the POS tomorrow. Grump grump.

Putting the old Cummins part back in tomorrow I guess. Hopefully a rocker didn’t grab an out of place wire and trash/ contaminate things.

Double unimpressed with the zip ties now. Fixed that. #2 still unhappy. Decided to pull for testing and probable replacement instead of playing games swapping around to learn nothing

im internested in this for field research...

I checked and all use the same zip tie nonsense.. whats OE?
is OE mopar or cummins parts?
mopar number?

so many reasons I'm asking and I really can't get into why... at least not yet..

[mr.mindless]

Cummins. Number was super easy to Google up the first time...

Take a close look at the comparison pic, there are nice molded channels for the wires to follow on the oe piece.

Let me know if you want some better pictures. I’m not trashing it since I’ll be waiting for that nicked wire to fail anyway.  I may put it back in...

Low flow on that #2, as I expected.

Another $400 down the toilet! Yay!
