Ensure that the injectors’ fuel discharge holes, valves , etc. The cylinders lack any connection between the tops of the cylinders and the engine block. Note the wear and damage to the 8.2 piston, especially between the top ring and the top of the piston pictured in the Longer life engines typically have piston skirts at least as long as the cylinder bore diameter. New major parts (ie blocks, heads, crankshafts, etc.) Most 6.5s are equipped with a turbo. The 1992-1993 model years used a 6.5-specific The fuel system is a very simple design. The Detroit Diesel Series 71 is a two-stroke diesel engine series, available in both inline and V configurations. As shown in the 4-stroke cycle diagram above, the piston is forced against the side of the cylinder (yellow arrows) by the angle of the connecting rod to the crankshaft rod journal. In a fully pressurized lubrication system like the 8.2 has, the oil is fed to the center of each bearing so that it can form an oil film between the crankshaft journal and the bearing surfaces, as it works its way to the outer edges of the bearing where it squirts out and splatters around the crankcase as the crankshaft turns. This Model Number is broken down below to demonstrate the identification on the engine.V8 Crankshaft with Two Rods assembled to each rod Journal.Features: Horizontal Crankshaft & Parent Bore CylindersThe very high number of spares produced is indicative of the high failure rate of this engine.To help us alphabetize the lists below, the beginning grammatical articlesTITLE — AUTHORS‚ EDITORS‚ PUBLISHERS‚ PRODUCERS‚ DIRECTORS‚ SOURCE‚ etc. These shortcomings include: An “Open Deck” cylinder block with free-standing cylinders and only 10 head bolts per head that results in frequent head gasket failures; Short piston skirts that results in rapid wear of pistons, rings and cylinders; And a weak “bottom end” that results in frequent crankshaft and bearing failures. This can result in some or all of the injectors delivering too little fuel for the higher rated engines or too much fuel for the lower rated engines.

General Motors introduced a line of Diesel V8 engines for their C/K pickup trucks in 1982. One such tool is the Timing Pin and Guide Tool # J 29139 illustrated on SEC 14.2.1 page 1 of the Quality replacement parts are becoming scarce and more expensive. One exception to this rule is the super-long-lifed An  engine that has achieved near-zero piston side loads is the Also compare the distance from the crown of the piston to the first compression ring on each piston. The 8.2 head gasket mating surface is drastically reduced and consists of just the narrow top ends of the cylinders which consequently can provide only limited sealing surface which has proven to be seriously inadequate. The Detroit Diesel Series 92 is a two-stroke cycle, V-block diesel engine, produced with versions ranging from six to 16 cylinders. In addition, most small V8 diesel engines have at least 6 head bolts (some shared with neighboring cylinders) in a full circle pattern around the top of the cylinder to more evenly provide the necessary head tightness on the head gasket. The crank webs, and the width and diameter of the main and rod bearings have been optimized to carry the stress and load of a high compression, high output engine. Their first product was the Series 71 engine. Both of these features can be seen in the Cummins V-555 “Triple Nickel” Cylinder Block with replaceable “Wet” Cylinder Liners removed.Unfortunately, the cheaper Detroit Diesel 8.2 engine block, as clearly illustrated in their brochure shown directly below, has neither.Detroit Diesel 8.2L Block with “Free Standing Cylinders” (Note the open space all around the joined (siamese) cylinders)This brochure is available for viewing in its entirety by Academy Members as a PDF from our Academy Library – According to the above brochure, the Detroit Diesel 8.2 cylinder block was “designed using computer analysis” (Remember the adage “Garbage in, garbage out”), and was cast without the full head gasket mating surface (the “deck”) leaving the joined “Siamese” cylinders “free-standing”. are practically non-existent and usable used parts are also becoming scarce.Because of these recognized inherent weaknesses, Detroit Diesel never did set up the 8.2 engines to produce very high power outputs (see Engine Specifications Table later in this article).
