well ive been gathering parts to do my remote oil filter setup and got this turbo oil line to -4 AN hose adapter off ebay and noticed the oil hole is very small on one side the website says its to prevent to much oil pressure going straight to the turbo but it seems to small to me. What do you guys think should i drill it out a little more or leave it?

Just added a piece of hardline in place of the pump
![[Image: IMAG0110.jpg]](http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g96/yamarider3/IMAG0110.jpg)
While I had the tank dropped I also modified the filler neck so I could fit a diesel nozzle in it
Just took a large punch and knocked out the restrictor
![[Image: IMAG0112.jpg]](http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g96/yamarider3/IMAG0112.jpg)
Then welded back up the holes from the plug welds ripping out and voila!

well i finally got around to removing the in tank pump and that was definately the problem. Its now way more smoother at higher rpms.

Second problem im not 100% sure about. The last couple times I have gone to start the truck i have to hold the throttle to the floor to keep it running (barely) and it has quite a bit of blue smoke until it warms up then the smoke clears and it runs smooth. Im thinking this may be valve stem seals? Does anyone have any other ideas?

ok so ive been having a couple different issues now that ive been driving the truck everyday. The first is that I need to put a filter on the pickup in the tank because I will be driving then all of a sudden lose basically all power due to the fuel line getting plugged so i just pull the line off at the pre filter and blow in it with the air nozzle and that solves that.

maybe obvious but have you made sure your whole glowplug system is working properly?
have you made sure the valves are adjusted to spec?
have you done a compression test?

yes glowplug system works, valves are adjusted but i havent ran a compression test. I am also kind of thinking maybe this has to do with my turbo being worn out. I pulled off my intake hose and felt the propeller and noticed it has quite a bit of slop, enough to where it looks like it is hitting the compressor housing which i can also hear at certain rpms. I have heard of worn out turbos spraying out oil into the exhaust so maybe this has something to do with the smoke.. looks like its time to start searching for another turbo

No, I will look into it. How much do you think it weights? It's still on the motor. We have been underwater for the last few days and they say there are a few more days till it drys out. I have some other work to do too but, I'll put your name on it.

Awesome I was actually thinking about and i think it should fit in a large flat rate box maybe. That wouldnt be too bad. And no hurry.

Yeah, depending on the fitting you use, you might need to trim the end a bit. It's a weakness of tapered pipe thread...

Ok so i need some help on deciding what turbo to get. I rebuilt my current turbo probably less than 500 miles ago and its already shot. I think the inside of the housing where the bushing sit was just too worn out leading to the early failure. So im now looking for a complete replacement and wouldnt mind upgrading it with somthing that will have some better performance. So any ideas?

Ok so I havent been on here for a while but would like to bring this thread back from the dead. I havent really done much to the truck besides putting on 39.5" tires. I really am trying to come up with another motor mount solution because the poly mounts are creating way too much vibration. Does anyone have any good ideas on what to use for rubber mounts?

so i ended up ordering a few of these

If you look through the thread you'll see its already been straight axled before I started the motor swap. And actually it was 85 that was the last year for straight axles and I can't remember if I posted it or not but when I had 37s and 5.29 gears I was able to get 21 mpg pretty easily which I consider very good for a lifted truck with 37" tires

(10-31-2011, 01:15 AM)4rnnr33 so i ended up ordering a few of these
They look like it should be pretty easy to modify my existing mounts to make these work they look like a pretty good style of mount I like the way the rubber sits in a tube which should make them plenty strong. More updates when they get here.
Hmm, what model did you get those from? I know the alltracs 3sgte is a heavy 4banger, they might be strong enough to withstand some off road beatings. The guys that race alltracs end up making poly bushings because the stocks won't hold the torque from them.

Some people have used 4bt mounts as well. I think my rubber spring bushing will last a while.

When you did the SAS, what kit and spring size did you run? Did you move the front hanger 3/4" forward? How far did you move the transmission mount back? What tranny are you running?
I ask all this because I'm running Trail-Gear's 5" HD springs with the front hanger 3/4" forward, and when I flexed it with the 22R in, the drag link didn't hit the tie rod, so I left the steering box where it was. I bought 4x4labs adapter kit, and my motor is so far forward, the crank pulley is 1 1/4" from the front frame cross member. I'd love to leave the engine where it is to reduce the amount of oil pan mods. I'd just really like to know if you moved the transmission/engine combo back, because that would shove the oil pan into the drag link even more. I'd move the tranny back if I didn't think it'd give me hell with with oil pan.
I have a few questions as I'm trying to get my OM617 finished up this weekend.

on my swap if you looked at it i used the stock x member and tranny location i had to mod the oil pan alot to make it fit properly im in the proces of making a rear sump oil pan right now while offroading you will notice on inclines you will get 0 oil pressure with a front sump pan take a look at my swap maybe it will give you some ideas. and for your exhuast run a 3 inch straight pipe its sounds awsome.
