Repeated the leakdown... still hasn't healed itself. So, on Skips
advice, tore it down. And the news is not good... burned the top land of
#3 piston plus looks like it was getting a bit hot in other places on
that piston. Interesting in that all the others on that side show
moderate carbon on the pistons but this one is pretty darn clean. Very
little combustion product on it at all. So I am thinking maybe the
injector wasn't firing or is plugged or some how farkled. I also found
that the waste gate controller hot side gasket was blown out on one
side. So now I am going to have to track some of those down ans well.
Life is grand, ain't it. Gotta call D.S.S. for pistons and rings and
maybe bearings... how much fun can a guy have, lol...
