That was def sketchy! Next time use both forks slid close together. That stressed me out! 😅

That’s as close together as they go!

What would cause a cm870 to get LOTS AND LOTS of air into the fuel return under load? I got a fuel pump powering the inlet. Cups? Valve seats? Turbo? Fyi , just did injectors "no change", no blow by.

Thanks for watching! Does the truck run bad? The 870’s do tend to have a lot of air in the return that’s why you’ll notice they idle a bit rougher than the newer ones but my first guess would be maybe compression coming back up into the injectors. Should probley check the vacuum and make sure it’s not getting air on the suction side as well. Definitely something we’d need to take a look at and do some testing to really solve though. Hope that helps!
