Re: our new burb
Got the flywheel installed and started the motor up. Found fuel leak was a hole in the return line from rubbing the cab. With no replacements available that I have found so far I chose do cut the flex line off the steal line then put hose over it and double clamp it to the original return line that goes from the tbi to the frame. At the frame line I just moved the nut back and crammed the hose over the flare where the o ring went. Also double clamped that hose. I chose to cut the line cause it is all pre bent to go around all the crap on the intake manifold. Dorman sells hose ends that are a few inches long but then I would have to had a longer rubber hose and run it threw the intake junk. Started it up and no leaks yay!!! Also got the trans bolted back in place and mostly hooked up. Just need the converter bolts and the drive shaft and install new u joint. The mount I picked up at work for the trans was complealy incorrect so we had to go back to the store and pick up the correct one. Think so far I have about 50 bucks in parts.
