SA494 How to Rebuild GM 6.2 & 6.5 Liter Diesel Engines Diagnosis Assembly DB2

GM 6.2 & 6.5 Liter Diesel Engines: How to Rebuild By: John F. Kershaw, EdD, PhD Finally, a rebuild and performance guide for GM 6.2 and 6.5L diesel engines!In the late 1970s and early 1980s, there was considerable pressure on the Detroit automakers to increase the fuel efficiency for their automotive and light-truck lines. While efficient electronic engine controls and computer-controlled gas engine technology was still in the developmental stages, the efficiency of diesel engines was already well documented during this time period. As a result, General Motors added diesel engine options to its car and truck lines in an attempt to combat high gas prices and increase fuel efficiency.The first mass-produced V-8 diesel engines of the era, the 5.7L variants, appeared in several General Motors passenger-car models beginning in 1978 and are often referred to as the Oldsmobile Diesels because of the number of Oldsmobile cars equipped with this option. This edition faded from popularity in the early 1980s as a result of falling gas prices and quality issues with diesel fuel suppliers, giving the cars a bad reputation for dependability and reliability. The 6.2L appeared in 1982 and the 6.5L in 1992, as the focus for diesel applications shifted from cars to light trucks. These engines served faithfully and remained in production until 2001, when the new Duramax design replaced it in all but a few military applications.While very durable and reliable, most of these engines have a lot of miles on them, and many are in need of a rebuild. This book will take you through the entire rebuild process step by step from diagnosis to tear down, inspection to parts sourcing, machining, and finally reassembly. Also included is valuable troubleshooting information, detailed explanations of how systems work, and even a complete Stanadyne DB2 rebuild section to get the most out of your engine in the modern era.If you have a 6.2, or 6.5L GM diesel engine, this book is a must-have item for your shop or library.Pages : 160Size : 8.5 X 11 (inches)Format : Paperback / softbackIllustrations : 487 color photosPublisher : CarTechISBN : 9781613255605Product Code : SA494

SA389P How to Rebuild and Modify Chrysler A-833 Transmission Repair Reassembling

Chrysler A-833 Transmissions: How to Rebuild and Modify By: Jamie Passon Pictures and text in this book are Black & White print. Pull out your A-833 and tear into it with this valuable resource! Rebuild and modify your Chrysler A-833 transmission with confidence using expertise from author Jamie Passon of Passon Performance.Jamie uses his decades of knowledge on the A-833 to create the ultimate book on rebuilding a Chrysler 4-speed. Provides an historical overview of the long-tenured A-833 and jumps into dissecting your transmission to assess what could be malfunctioning. The bulk of the book concentrates on disassembling, inspecting, repairing, and reassembling the A-833. With 400 photos, the author shows exactly how to rebuild your transmission and features how-to sequences that walk you through each phase.Making horsepower at Chrysler in the early 1960s was nothing new for the Pentastar brand. The 413 RB engine had been producing more than 350 hp since the late 1950s. Joining the lineup in 1963, the 426 Wedge doubled down on the fact that Chrysler was all-in on going fast. The one weakness holding them back from total domination on the streets and strips was with their dated and tired manual shifter, the BorgWarner T-10 transmission. That all changed with the advent of its replacement, the New Process A833.Whether you own a Polara, Road Runner, Challenger, or Ram truck, you need to be certain that your transmission is in top-notch, working condition. Now is the time to eliminate that annoying grind when you put your Mopar into reverse. rnPages : 128Size : 8.5 X 11 (inches)Format : Paperback / softbackIllustrations : 368 color photosPublisher : CarTechISBN : 9781613257708Product Code : SA389P
