I've used a momentary switch under the hood and stuck my finger in the hole and waited to feel it blow.

I did the same, but had my wife bumping the key.I've used a momentary switch under the hood and stuck my finger in the hole and waited to feel it blow.
Dually 400s and Alcoas. Makes a guy feel a certain kinda way.Cranked it manually to TDC and watched the distributor spin to be sure, reinstalled 180 degrees from the point it was at (finally on TDC Compression) and she fired right up. Couple spark plug cables weren't quite all the way seated, but after enough time to get the air outta the lines, she purrs again.
Tires and new lugs for the wheels arrive tomorrow, and plan to swap in the seats from the Silverado for a more comfy ride this weekend.

Like 22.5 alcoas?Looking forward to swapping them out with something nicer when I dig into the lowering kit, paint, etc.
Or at least the direct-bolt 20's.. (Eagle Alloy, if they're still around)Like 22.5 alcoas?

6.5's get a bad wrap b/c GM Techs weren't properly trained from the factory to work on them. They also get a bad wrap b/c you need some tools that can't be purchased from HF and some higher order of thinking compared to a Civic. New owner's also fail to realize its an IDI compared to the Coal Rolling Competition. At the time 6.5 was perfect for what it was compared to 454. Now that diesel is more expensive than gas as well as gas vehicles getting more efficient, owning a diesel is a novelty at this point.Buying a 6.5td to be the reliable vehicle for hauling sketchy vehicles around on a trailer.. is kinda like asking the fox to guard the hen house.
The #1 thing you can rely on a 6.5td for is to exhaust your wallet, patience, and walking shoes.
