Duramax Turbocharger Vane Position Sensor Duramax 4094 VGT

                                                    Duramax Power Diesel Turbo Vane 





The Duramax diesel turbocharger increases engine power by pumping compressed air into the combustion chambers, allowing a greater quantity of fuel to com-bust at the optimal air or fuel ratio. The duramax 4094 vvt turbine spins as exhaust gas flows out of the engine and over the exhaust turbine blades, and turns the air intake compressor wheel at the other end of the turbine shaft, pumping more air into the intercooler intake system.

The engine control module controls nine vanes for the turbocharger. The vanes are used to vary the amount of boost pressure and can control the boost pressure independent of engine speed. The vanes mount to a unison ring which are rotated to change the vane angle. The engine computer will vary the vane angle which adjusts the boost depending upon the load that applied when you accelerate the pedal at the require speed of the engine.

The turbocharger vanes are normally open when the engine is not under load. However, the engine main computer will often close the turbocharger vanes to create back pressure to drive exhaust gas through the exhaust gas re circulation recognized as the egr or egr delete valve. Does at extreme cold temperatures, the engine computer may close the vanes at low load conditions in order to accelerate engine coolant heating .temperature and when reach the optimum performance temp the turbo vanes will open as require from the engine computer. The engine computer may also close the turbocharger vanes under exhaust braking conditions, only when is below the command coolant temperature 

During engine diesel regeneration, the engine will vary the turbocharger vanes to assist with the exhaust system warm-up, and to maintain proper engine exhaust temperatures needed to properly regenerate the exhaust particulate filter called the dpf or dpf delete.

Duramax 6.6L Valve Lash Adjustment

Duramax 6.6L Valve Adjustment  Duramax Diesel Pickup Truck This is one method used to set the valve lash on your duramax engine Valve adjustment should be performed anytime the heads are removed. It's also good practice to adjust valves during service that require valve cover remove.  TDC (Top Dead Center) First start with, locating the timing mark on the front engine cover and the harmonic balance.  Rotate the crankshaft in order to bring the number 1 cylinder to TDC (Top Dead Center) of the exhaust stroke. This mark should be aligned with the mark on the engine.  To adjust the valves, start by loosening all the jam nuts with a 14mm wrench, you will also need a flat screwdriver to make the adjustments. Adjust the valve using a .012" feeler gauge Use your .012” feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve bridge as pictured. The correct setting is had when there is slight resistance when moving the feeler gauge. It should not be so tight th

How to Remove LB7 Duramax Fuel Injectors Step By Step Instructions

LB7 Duramax Diesel 6.6L R&R Remove and Replace  Working on any automobile engine can be intimidating, and that is the very reason why mechanics stay in business, However some tasks that seem intimidating are not actually that difficult if you have the right tools and the right knowledge to complete the task at hand, The following instructions are on how to remove LB7 Duramax Fuel Injectors. This task is often considered a difficult process to complete, but these instructions will break down the process and make this task seem simple. Duramax Diesel LB7 Engine 2001-2004 GMC or Chevrolet Pick-up Truck  Drain the Coolant find the drain valve on the passenger side of the wheel well and drain the coolant. To capture the debris,use a bucket and a cloth for a filter. Caution: This step is very important to ensure the combustion chamber won't fill with coolant during the last step of removing the  fuel injectors if an injector cup pull out during this step.

Duramax Glow Plugs Operation Glow Plug Relay

                                                    Cold Weather Starts and Glow Plugs  Glow Plug System Description Duramax diesel engine, air alone is compressed in the cylinder. Then, after the air has been compressed, a charge of fuel is sprayed into the cylinder and ignition occurs, due to the heat of compression. Eight glow plugs are used as an aid to starting. The glow plug initial ON time will vary based on the system voltage and temperature. Lower temperatures cause longer ON times all the times. The ECM provides glow plug operation after starting a cold engine. This post-start operation is initiated when the ignition switch  is returned to Run, from the Start position. This operation helps clean up excessive white smoke or poor idle quality after starting. Control of the instant start system, glow plugs is determine by an electronic glow plug control unit and  4.7 volt  glow plugs, requiring  2 seconds  to heat up to  1,000°C (1,832°F)  . The temperature and t
