Well it's all torn apart right now and not bad to get to. HOW DO I FIX THIS? I heard a whistlin (leakey whistling) noise, and thought I was seeing semi-low boost. So I obviously have an exhaust leak there.

Do I replace the uppipe? The whole manifold? Just a gasket? It looks like there is no gasket. It looks like the soot is being thrown down ... before the top "donut" if we can call it that. I will try to get a pic soon.

PLEASE help! I am in the middle of an injector swap and it MUST be put back together by tomorrow. And I'd really like to fix this too before I have to put it all back together. Thanks .org!

You have OCD with your truck.

:dunno: What can I say. Like I said though, it's a quirky mofo lol!
I'm not THAT concerned, like life or death, but I want my boost back!!!!!
Oh and buddy, I have OCD with alot of things lol!

When are you gonna chip it?

 

[TurboSevenThree]

When I fix everything like this kinda thing! Lol, and when I can really afford it.

Car Quest #F17250 donuts for a chevy gasser, there is one on each side at the collector/baby butt. Replace the up pipe donuts and that should seal it up.

These fit? And is the donut like... inside the connection there? How much are they?

I have been reading around, do I seriously have to pull my turbo to fix this????? Is that the only way? And therefore I need new pedestal rings and stuff too? For real?!

Nvm, I can't fix it this weekend that's for sure! I just talked to Dirk.

Thanks for the part number Howard! Now I just gotta get with Scott and see if he wants to make a weekend in the next few weeks and we can tackle this and whatever he's doing. :icon_ford:

Fel Pro p/n 8194 works too, 15,000 on em without a leak, 7.04 including tax at NAPA.

Try to tighten the ones in there if possible.

You woke me up!:gun:


I think I put you on the right direction. You should be fine with the injector, but I feel your going to need someone there with you to replace the gasket.

The Napa ones that I get here are so darn hard, they won't smash. Another member on here had that problem two days ago.

pm answered, if you want them done we can get them done in a couple weeks man. Just let me know ok.

 

[TurboSevenThree]

Thanks for all the help guys, i really love this place.

Sorry Dirk...... unish2: my bad. :dunno: Nonetheless thank you for all your info. Cause I'd have definately screwed it up without it! I had a feeling it was more involved than I originally thought. That's ok, shouldn't be a big deal. I ain't gonna be no good tech if I can't even do 1 injector in two days lol!

I had the same problem. I went to remove the turbo and had problems with one of the bolts. needed the truck same day so I put everything back and just tightened the uppipes. fixed the leak. you'll only have a problem if the dohnuts are burned throught which is not that likely. the dealer had the OEM dohnuts for $11.40ea for me. kinda expensive but I don't have a napa or carquest close.
