Alright guys i have had an oil leak that i havnt had time to get to on my 01 until today, got under there and checked it out and it is a drip leak coming from the power steering yoke area/pump, and its not steering fluid, the place where the pump mechanically connects is the source area, Just wonderin if any of you guys have had this or heard of this?? I am gonna take the pump off i think.
If it's leaking at the adapter that bolts to the back side of the gearcase, you can get that gasket at a local Cummins shop. If it's the seal at the vacuum pump/PS pump area, you might need the vacuum pump rear seal. You can get the seal here... Reganis Auto Center (308) 632-8200 seifert@reganis.com
got a seal and o ring kit coming for the vacuum pump already, thanks for the help especially the advise to drive the benz...........................................................dont be jealous man, just cause i get 40 mpg oke: oke: oke:
man why all the jealousy from everyone oke: it was a joke about the benz man
Anyways i replace the seal and o-rings and gasket today so basically rebuilt it. It wasnt all that hard. Just time consuming pain in the arse. Some of the bolts are made for a 5 year old to be able to get to not an adult but anyhow. All is well so far. Nice to get the motor cleaned up :Thumbup:
Don't know where you heard that, but it wasn't from me. I do have an "issue" but its not caused by that combination. The problem I have right now, is there with both the Catcher ECM and with the factory ECM. Personally I think it is more related to the hot rod pump, but I can't prove it yet.
i read most of that thread that is 1,000 posts/pages long or whatever and some guys are saying that the timing from the comp combined with the already adjusted timing from the Catcher. :shrug: Dunno. Just read it from a lot of guys. That is why he came out with the "special" version of the ECM for guys that want to run it with their Comp. Most all of the complaints were from guys with Auto's so that may be the key.
Sounds i ideal though. Catcher kicking in first and then the Comp a little later. Do you like the combo?
I love the combo for driving around on the street, and I have the special once made for use with the Comp, but overall performance isn't any better, meaning I have dynoed with and without the Catcher ECM and didn't notice an overall improvement. The Catcher does make a difference on the street however, due to it coming in at the lower rpm's I guess.
