Is there a checklist if you will of things specific to the 24v that you guys would start checking off when taking on a new to you truck?  I am thinking start with the most basic of basics.

 

thank you in advance!

 

• Error Codes (Deal with any codes present)
• Fuel pressure (14-20 PSI)
• Front suspension and steering (Inspect for damage or loose links)
• Injectors (If there is more than 100-150k miles)
• All fluids and filters changed.
  • Engine oil
  • Transmission fluid (and filter if applicable)
  • Coolant flush
  • Power Steering fluid
  • Brake fluid
  • Axle gear lube
  • Transfer case (if applicable)
• Brakes (Inspection)
• AC Noise check

-   Truck has no codes

 

-   The truck is making 17psi fuel pressure at idle, but drops down into the 10psi range on a good run.  It has the basic fass replacement pump.  I know that long term it will need a real fuel system, but in the meantime is there anything that can be done to try and squeeze some more out of the current setup?  

 

-   Steering looks pretty good except it appears the box may be leaking a little, it does have that intermittent option of the power steering going away and if you blip the throttle it comes back to life.

 

-   I would guess the injectors have about 150k on them, If I do them I would want a little more towing power.  Maybe just a modern day amount of power if that isn't asking too much and won't require 10k in modifications to hold up to it.  

 

-   Oil and trans changed by me already, will tear into the axles next weekend and hopefully can find 2 good seals for the Transfer case it appears to be puking a little out of the front and ALOT out of the rear. (underside of the bed is really clean back there)

 

-   Brakes feel good, will tear into them as soon as I can to get a closer look.

 

-   AC noise I still have alot to learn, electrical is not my forte' but with enough reading here I think I can get it done.
