    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) "53" Block ??? What years

    Hello All! What year models did DC but the 53 block Cummins into production? I am guessing '99,'00,'01 or more? Is it a given that the 53 block will crack & leak or are there examples some of these engines running fine? Thanks, Tom

    Willys, I would like to see the drain used on the newer filters. I am at the point of trying to find a filter that has the metal petcock valve. My leak is as strong as ever. Where the excess pressure is coming from has me puzzled :confused: Somewhere a fellow mentioned that...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Fuel Filter.....Bad drip from valve

    I know this sounds odd but is there a Fleetguard filter that uses a steel petcock inplace of the push in type of drain currently used on our trucks? I have never had the water lite come on in 10 years. Also, to install a fuel pressure gage, do you tee in between the filter and injector...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Fuel Filter.....Bad drip from valve

    Here's another question..... what is causing the over-pressurization of the filter? Joe, my truck is a '94. Do you plumb in the gage before or after the filter?

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Fuel Filter.....Bad drip from valve

    Thanks for the replys! I put a new WIX filter too. The O-ring was lubed up. The leak is definitely coming from the outlet in the valve. I am guessing the OFV is bad or failing. Remember the leak started with the original valve with 215,000 miles. I replaced the valve with a...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Transmission + Transfer case removed at same time???

    Guys, I am about to install my SBC Con OFE . It appears possible to remove both the transmission & transfer case together rather than breaking them apart. I bought a transmission jack from Northern and it looks like it will work great. Your opinions are appreciated! Thanks, Tom
