I bought the Delphi brand UVCH's and Mahle gaskets. The Delphi brand were the same as Alliant made in Mexico. Was a gamble when everybody was sold out and the only thing i could find not made in Cheena was the Delphi. I put in a whole new engine harness from Riff Raff at the same time.
i’m about to replace just the gaskets and harness on my 97, if i’m not taking the glow plugs or injectors out do i need to still turn the engine over to get out oil out of the cylinders?
Sir, I am woefully late to viewing this video. A question for you (or anybody here in the comment section), if I may, I am replacing/repairing my (1995) CCV breather o-ring’s. On the very rear (near the firewall) of the valve cover, I noted that the injector/glow-plug, harness plug…, has a “bare” (no insulation wrap) stranded and tinned wire (16-18ga), inner-twined with the harness wires, and then wrapped with a thin aluminum foil wrap, black tape over this, and then encased in the wire loom. This “bare” stranded wire is “looped” around and re-routed back into the wrapped wires and headed back up into the wire loom. The rubber turbo air intake boot was rubbing on the “bare” stranded wire & the valve cover & head. No signs at all of any sparking/arcing at all. Have you seen this on any of the vehicles you have worked on..? What is this wires function…? Great video, Thank you very much.
@@AutomedicGarage ok, thank you very much for taking time out of your Sunday, to reply. I probably would never have seen it, except for the 28yr old wire loom crumbling off…. Thank you again.

Gotta love those great Dorman products…
Hello, great video. My truck is a 94.5 and wanted to ask what is the torque on the glowplugs and valve covers.
From what im reading zd30 is a dual coil glow plug . Last longer and better quality
i’m about to replace just the gaskets and harness on my 97, if i’m not taking the glow plugs or injectors out do i need to still turn the engine over to get out oil out of the cylinders?
No.
How many miles are on that work truck? I thought it sounded pretty good.
330k

It’s for the foil wrapping which prevents electrical interference. It’s supposed to be bare.

@@greggb1416 not a problem. Thanks for watching. Stick with us.
why rvt one side of the gasket and not the other? it's reusable
I didn’t.
@@AutomedicGarage I know, it's just kinda funny to think about.
