    HELP BLEEDING CLUTCH?

    Are you saying to leave the cap off the reservoir, open the bleeder valve and press the rod a few times? Or do I need to keep opening and closing the valve? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Clutch disappeared

    I just replaced the master cylinder as well. I bled it just the same. Pumped the clutch in, plugs the outlet hole, let off, opened the hole and repeated 4 times. Then I bled the slave the same way... I'm getting resistance at the bottom qtr but I used to get resistance at half press. Not sure...

    Clutch disappeared

    Hmm I did the bleed where I keep the reservoir full and open the bleed valve. Press and hold clutch. Tighten bleed valve. Release clutch. I did this 5-6 times. Pedal still doesn't have resistance?.. what could be causing this? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Clutch disappeared

    I was driving the truck all day and when I pulled up to the house I pressed the clutch to pop it out of 1st and the clutch hut the floor. No resistance. Truck died from it's own strain. There's a puddle on the ground under what I assume is the slave cylinder. I'm moving this week and need it...

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    One last question. My old compressor was a 9oclock harness and the new one is 12. Does this actually matter? And while we're at it, I imagine the polarity matters too? Couldn't tell what the new compressor prefered Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    FIXED THE ALIGNMENT!! Holy cow was this frustrating. So the ToughOne didn't work. It had some extra protruding fasteners on the backside that wouldn't agree with the existing mount. I had a few issues that were hindering the line up. 1. My valve covers we're so tall that I could really rotate...

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    I think I understand the o-rings now... It was never leaking so all other o-rings should be fine. I forget how many questions I ask. But still confused about the adapters. I imagine that's for convenience later?... Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    Man this would have taken so much research! I bought a new accumulator and orifice tube. Pretty sure the accumulator came with o-rings... I'm confused on what you meant by the edited quote above. Particularly if I replace the accumulator, the o-rings should be fine unless you mean the condenser...

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    Awesome. Thanks for that! I ended up grabbing a ToughOne compressor from Advance (which I've see alluded to as a 4Seasons product) since I could grab it today. Came out to about $155 after discount. I suppose if it doesn't work, I can always return like you did. Mine's been converted to R134a so...

    Can I ask which compressor you bought? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    Bummer. I thought as much. Ive already shimmed the main brace off the heads by two washers. It's really weird it lines up like that. My belt's jumping around so I guess I'll keep tinkering and cussing till it settles down enough. Unfortunate. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    AC compressor does line up; new compressor

    Old thread but I have the same problem. I had my ps pump and ac pulleys maxed out and belt was loose. Had to go from 55.5" belt to a 55.125". Belt's tighter but I still have the angle issue. If I loosen the ac and tighten the ps, I can get the ac straight but it's out of plane. I'm wondering if...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Ha I'm going to Destin but I'll be taking the Lexus ls460 for that. I rented my wife and kids a Toyota sienna to take. She drives a Lexus rx350. Both are 07 models. We're trying to replace hers with a Sequoia at some point but more space and in-laws are coming too so they're gonna chip in on the...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Nice! That's cheaper too. The one I got just doesn't seem deep enough. I probably have 2" from the outer face to where I feel the crankshaft. I didn't pay attention when I pulled the old one off unfortunately. Wife and kids are headed to the beach before I have to join em in 3 days so I was...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Dammit, went to put the balancer on and I hit hard torque before it was seated. I have about a 1/4" left. I have a feeling I just didn't buy the right one. I got this one.. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/PFS-80000 After searching online, I'm still not sure wth I need to get. Mind you I have...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Im installing the dampener and I noticed in the dish of the pulley, there is an extra "weight" it looks like. Is this supposed to mount opposite the key?

    Timing and Dieseling

    I think were getting close to wrapping this thread up. Here's what I did over the weekend - - Holley says there is not a choke valve needle in the 4175, so my last post was moot - I added a gasket on either side of my thermal insulator (there wasnt one on either side when I bought it and assumed...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Wow... I might have found the problem, or a least a contributor. By sheer luck I noticed in a video that I'm supposed to have a check valve needle under the discharge nozzle in the carb. I didn't know it was there and must have lost it during cleaning and rebuilding if it even existed in the...

    Yep, just fixing 6 things to fix one. Ill get to it. Cash and other findings along the way are leading me different directions ATM. Just ordered this one. The implied facepalm hurt me. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/pfs-80000 Do I need any kind of special tools or can I just rent them from...

    Timing and Dieseling

    No. :( I figured I have it reigned in for the moment to get timing down. The truck hasnt moved from the carport in over a month... Only been cranked the past few days at idle and maybe a few throttle punches so it should still be relatively accurate.

    Timing and Dieseling

    Great analogy to the potty training! I appreciate that. To clarify, I wasn't necessarily trying to raise the RPM by adjusting timing. I was only suggesting that that is a symptom Ive noticed. I have always read to put the carb in a reasonable starting point (mixture screws turned out 1.5 turns...

    Timing and Dieseling

    Yea I was looking for an inline filter until I took the 4175 apart and found the internal one. All is well there. I also bought the 1/4" spread boar gasket to attach to the intake. I feel like I'mma replace everything but the engine before I get this running right. Still mad that I let my brand...
