I just bought a 93 K3500 with a blown head gasket. I only paid 1500$ for the truck! That's the good part.
Here's the bad part. I bought 2 new heads and installed them, then as I was reinstalling the injector lines, I noticed that one of the #1 injector line's hold down straps had come loose and "sawed a slice" into the line. It still held pressure when I tore it down, evidenced by the fact that the line was perfectly clean. No diesel-spill-fuzz built up on it at all.
Here's the deal: I have a spare injector line from a 6.2 engine, but I noticed that the internal diameter is smaller than the 6.5 line. Can I use the 6.2 line without causing rough running?
I think I already know the answer, but I thought I would ask anyone here with more experience than I.
