    Knight of the Phoenix

    So much work and ingenuity. It looks great. Wish we were closer and I'd paint it for you. And I noticed an old Troy Bilt Horse tiller in one of the pics.. got one too!

    Showerhead filter alternative?

    I bought a $22 diesel sending unit on ebay for the side tank. It's working.. it didn't come with the showerhead though. So far, so good..

    Showerhead filter alternative?

    I love my old vehicles (most of the time). I can't imagine owning something new and impossible to work on at home (paying labor at a dealer!). Even worse, an electric vehicle.. that's a compromise almost as ridiculous as giving up guns.

    Showerhead filter alternative?

    Well, here's what I rigged up. Blowing through them they seem like they will flow an adequate amount of volume. That's $30/ft submersible hose and those filters have a very fine mesh screen for whatever little sediment I missed in the tank.

    Bad ground?

    Showerhead filter alternative?

    Couldn't a guy use an in tank filter like this instead of the brittle showerheads? https://www.amazon.com/Sports-Parts-Inc-Tank-Filter/dp/B006ZM9SCS?tag=oilburners-20

    Showerhead filter alternative?

    Great ideas. This is what's incredible to me, I put this sending unit in 3yrs ago.. look how rusty! The inside of the tank was OK, except for rust off this and (3yr old) showerhead chunks floating around. Check out the fuel water filter too. It's after the FSV unfortunately..

    How to set the timing on your 6.9 or 7.3 IDI and how to buy timing equipment.

    I did it! Was alot easier than I thought.. just a lines width towards the passenger fender. Sucks the timing kits are so expensive..

    Brake light stuck on?

    Friends, Why would my drivers side brake light be stuck on when I turn on running lights/headlights but brake light works fine without them on? Bad ground? I unscrewed and sanded the screw to what looks like a ground from the taillights..

    Random surging while driving

    Truck ran perfect, sat for a week. Then was hard to start, checked the air valve and yup, bled some air. Finally started, idled 30 seconds then raced and died. Looks like I'll be crawling around checking for air leaks also. Too bad there isn't an easier way to pinpoint the problem area, like on...

    I painted my truck one piece at a time

    I'd use it again! Just got a bad or old batch. A friend of mine who is an actual body man only uses Feather Fill. Sure sands easier than Everglass..

    I painted my truck one piece at a time

    I actually was using Feather Fill but I must have gotten a bad gallon, or it had been sitting on the shelf too long at the distributor.. it wouldn't stick. I had to redo the hood because of that actually!
