    F706D Oil Light Flashing

    erratic oil pressure would cause that, but more commonly would be a bad sending unit or bad wire from the light to the sending unit. if the wire is shorting to ground interment it will cause the light to flash. verify with a manual gauge, if it reads good inspect your wiring and operation of the...

    C221 cylinder head

    thanks for the info. I'm used to the specs of Detroit and Cummins with everything being measured out. When I checked the valves last year I noticed that it had o-ring style seals on the valves. Manual shows the early ones had no seals, then only intakes, and then finally all had seals. pretty...

    C221 cylinder head

    I'm planning on reworking my cylinder head on my 606 this summer. Compression across the cylinders is 150 psi +-2, problem is leaking oil in the valve guides. going to do a complete rebuild of the head and cut the new guides for Vinton seals. My I&T manual gives me all the specs for the head...

    Life of Anti-freeze

    modern antifreeze can last 10+ years, as long as the system is clean and mixed with distilled water you should not have any problems. if you go to most auto parts stores you can pick up coolant test strips, it will check the Glycol % and the Nitrate levels (PH). They give you the state and...

    Camshaft key

    I would pull the valve cover and do an inspection. Something had to cause it to shear.

    Clutch and TA Adjustment

    Thanks for the reply guys, pretty much what I thought. After digging deeper in the manual, I can remove the shaft without a split. Just have to remove the clutch cover plate and all other parts above it. It will be a project to tackle this spring. Talking with my machinest at work, he thinks...

    Clutch and TA Adjustment

    So yesterday I was out tinkering a bit. Fired up to 606 and went to hook up the spreader to do some work on it. Brought in up to the shed, and decided I was going to adjust the clutch and TA on the 606. Ever since I have owned it I have never been able to get the adjustment perfect. I have been...

    More Horsepower

    it all comes down to how much you want to spend and what are the limits to the rules. since you already have a turbo, I would build an intercooler. a small intercooler and an ice box with a 12v pump to circulate the chilled water. Another option is to change fuel. I know I will catch some...

    404 Utility...time for a rebuild!

    looks like ether damage to me. when you pull those two pistons, see if the compression rings are damaged.

    1967 706G - C291 No Start

    when you are at 0 TDC on the crank you could be TDC number 1 or Number 6 have to watch the valves to make sure which is which, if you set them for the wrong set you could be 180 out.

    450 Problems Continue.....

    i had a similar issue a few years ago with my 606. About drove me to drinking. With mine it ended up being the condenser, causing over saturation of the coil, leading to thermal break down of the coil.
