Just installed gaskets and studs in my 6.0, after trying to crank for about 45 seconds total crank time I gave up for the night out of respect for the neighbors. I understand it takes a lot of cranking after a complete teardown...
So long story short I had to get NEW heads because of exhaust cracks around the seats.. I am wondering if the machine shop forgot to put the plugs in the back of the heads for the fuel rails... only reason im not sure is that when I first turned the key on I had a line loose so diesel got everywhere..:doh: so I will be verifying when I get home after work. It hit me like a brick wall while I was lying in bed last night, as im not a lucky guy and the chances of me putting the heads on correctly, if the plugs were installed, is slim to none.
If they did anyone know of a part number for the plugs.. or if it would be advisable to find two bolts with copper washers to thread in the holes..
Or am I pretty much stuck until next week as the machine shop is closed... For the life of me I cannot find any info on this.
Thanks in advance
