atomix8,
Was this CDI from TylerH860? It sounds like your engine/transmission mount,(s) may possibly be the clanking culprit to me. Esp. if they've never been changed. Your related CDI problems sound like normal wear n tear items that may or will fail/wear. Mine has experienced the HVAC fan ticking at low fan speed, that I paid to have replaced at a shop. One thing is true on the CDI, at least to me. It's going to cost me more than I'd like to pay in the frequency of necessary repair items and costs, than I'd like it to. If, I want to keep it totally up to speed. |

Joe, Good point on the mounts, I hadn't thought of those, I'll take a look.
Was going to PM you the other answer but you're closed to PMs ! Quote:

Dual exhaust?
I had a dealer send photos of the underside of the car, and it looks like it has dual exhaust. Do these cars have dual exhaust?

I am looking at a long distance (Ohio, I am in CA) CDI, and got some photos of the suspension and underside. Is it supposed to have encapsulation panels all the way back to the diff? Although they might have been removed to take photos (I didn't ask yet), I want to find out before I make a bid on the car. It appears that the springs might have been replaced, and I can see no appreciable rust on the car. Here are some photos: What do you think?

Black Death photo
I just got sent some photos of the black death. Is it repairable? It appears to be mostly in the middle cylinders, but still pretty bad. I will probably be able to get the car pretty cheap. I have done some heavy work on these Diesels, so this repair does not scare me unless an expert says that it may be too far gone. What say you?

My CDI from San Antonio, and now in Dallas has never left the State, and has been garaged under my ownership (almost 4 years), has rust appearance/dust on my calipers/rotors too.
The springs look new! The CDI has encapsulated panels (2 or 3) from radiator to the rear of the transmission/start of driveshaft. |

I have no experience with black death syndrome, but several here on DD do. There's at least one thread on it, and many owners here have firsthand experience. IIRC, TheDon's CDI had it.
Black death was prevalent mostly on the 2005s. Mine's as clear/clean as a whistle at the row of I6 injectors. Mine's an '06. |

Looks nasty have you priced out injectors and do you have someone who will program them into the car?
