I think the injectors could use a rebuild, but for now I'll just sea foam them.
Thanks for all the help guys

Finished the OBA tonight, I ended up fitting the 1.5gal tank temporarily under the truck till I can get a larger tank.

I'm thinking of making a shower from a jerey can using my OBA to pressurize the can. I figure for now I may just use my stove and boil some water to add to the can for a set warmish temp. I'll update with pics.

Hey.... THAT IS EXACTLY what my buddy said about the problem he had, RB... "OMGOSHHHHHH, ... Love the 3.0, it's done me very well for 310K... But design flaws? Yeah, the pipe on the back, WORST! ... The knock sensor 3.0 problem? CLOSE SECOND!" .... He will call me later, but I don't think he was saying 51 code... Thought he said something else for the Knock code.

AC, eh? Maybe it's low enough on charge, and for some reason, in your SPECIAL rig, it's throwing a code saying, "I'm low, fill me up!"....... NO? hahaha. Maybe a AC-VSV issue? No clue... But when I talk to him, I'll keep him on track about the FIFTY ONE! lol.

Code 52 is the Knock Sensor, and that has been fixed for quite some time.
The code 51 actually started before i tore the top end down, but she gave no running issues, i just check the diagnostics every month or so to keep her tip-top.
I have this thread started to try and figure out the 51, if it even matters.

In other news, i snapped no photos last night, but i did order some OME CS009R springs for her saggy rear. I'm debating on weather or not to do a u-bolt flip and shock relocate at the same time.

Total was around 270$ shipped. Got the bushings too. Already have greasable fittings. Debating on to do the flip also. Not sure where I want to place my shocks yet. Price on the springs was $92 I think, best I could find.

OBA compressor mount of the 1.5gal compressor tank. This is temporary till I find a larger tank I can fit.˟
