Ok guys, I know I should know the answer to this but I just can't seem to figure it out.
I installed my 370's, and 191's tonight. First off, let me say I probably shouldn't have been working on it tonight, due to being on some medication so maybe I just didn't do something right. But I needed to get this done today.
I started it up after bleeding the lines at the inj. 's and she idled fine, I came inside and showered and cleaned myself up while it warmed up to operating temps. Then took it for a test drive, driving extremely easy on it and didn't get 1/2 a mile down the road and noticed a slight chatter, well i gave it another mile or so, and noticed it becoming more pronouced. I figured it was just that I hadn't bled it thoroughly enough. So I brought it back home and opened the lines again and got good fuel out of all of them. So I made sure my return line screws were tight (not to tight ofcoarse) and I was good there. Then almost immediataly it started 'chatter' really bad, I mean pretty bad, so I shut it down. I have not investigated any further as it was already 1230 and I am sure my neighbors were not happy about that at all.
So here is what I am thinking, maybe I don't have the inj. torqued enough, i set the gland nut to 55 lbs. or here is the good one, I am almost thinking I have the DV's in upside down. I know the inner part is right but for some stupid reason when I took them out of the old 3500 I couldn't remember if the lip on the outer piece went up or down, meaning does it sit on the bottome of the barrel or should it be towards the top? Other than that I am out of ideas, and could really use some direction to start looking at in the morning. I need to get this thing back up and running quickly.
TIA
