So, I need to compile a list of changes needed for the diesel adaptation.
So far, I have:
1) Fuel return line needs to be hooked up and found in scrapyard.
2) Glow plugs wire harness needs to be found and hooked up.
3) Starter needs to be found and put on.
4) Electrics coming out of the fuel injection pump do NOT need to be hooked up (for a specific reason, don't know what that reason is).
5) Gas tank needs to be drained and all fuel lines need to be replaced with a specific type for diesel fuel (what type do you recommend)?
6) Diesel fuel pump ( 5-8 psi. , needs to be a good one)
7) Air filter
8) Diesel fuel filter
9) replace the fuel filler pipe (don't know what this is)
10) vacuum pump is already on the motor (needs to be confirmed)
Anything that I'm missing?
11) A radiator meant for the 6.2 or 454 that will fit your vehicle will be what the doc prescribed.
12) Glow plug relay can be bypassed to a switch in the cab to make better use of the glow plugs. If you are unsure of what this is exactly, Google will be your friend, as there are even diagrams out there detailing this! -- a glow plug button and a light to indicate when they are on
13) change the y-pipe exhaust, remove the catalytic converter
Have a question about #12 -- this is so u can turn glow plugs off right?
