    Selling upgraded drop in fans!

    Well it seems to be working very well, I drove it from the jobsite to lunch and back, lots of hills, some are pretty long and steep. Fan clutch only locked on near the top of the steepest hill, and shut off before the bottom. 100* ambient Before in 90* ambient there were 3 hills on that route...

    Selling upgraded drop in fans!

    Well when I got home tonight the fan was waiting on the porch for me, so I threw it on and took it for a spin. On Sunday I decided to put the fan shroud on, even though it still had the stock fan. That lowered my cruising temps about 5* or so, and full throttle uphill temps a little more than...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    It was actually fairly peaceful as far as engine pulling goes, I never really got aggravated like I do sometimes. Looking back, the toolbox on its side was actually a different incident altogether, not even the same day…

    The toolbox got knocked over in a gentler manner than it seems was imagined, not surprised that y’all thought it stemmed from frustration. Some things do. All good though.

    That does sound cool. Never heard of it though. But mine was a truck so makes sense I thought that was R&D? Maybe not though…

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Every shim in the injector was in at least a dozen pieces, and completely full of soot. No idea why though… When I pulled it, it came out without much difficulty but the entire bottom half fell off, luckily not right away, all the pieces fell out on the back bumper of my service truck. Super...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Failed injector on the passenger side front cylinder, turbo mount is cracked, and rear main cover is leaking, but just barely. Drivers side rearmost intake valve doesn’t seem as tight as the others… has a tiny bit of wiggle with the rocker off, the rocker for that valve has a bit more play than...

    Does Ol’ One Ton have A/C or was it never equipped? Uhm… good for you LOL :dunno Indeed And to you as well Glad to hear it! That’s always kinda fun. I’ve gotten to do it a couple of times now, last weekend on a 605J Vermeer round baler, the guy bought it non operational and it needed a new...

    Selling upgraded drop in fans!

    I ordered one of these for my service truck yesterday, hopefully I’ll see it before too long. I don’t have temp problems, but it isn’t real hot out yet… as heavy and low geared as my truck is, i.e. 2500 rpm at 65 mph in 5th, I think it will be a worthwhile upgrade. I have a brand new radiator...

    Steering wheel repair

    I would recommend trying to find a replacement steering wheel on eBay

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    On a different note, dropped my truck off after lunch today to have the AC fixed, and they got it done, went and picked it up this evening. It was kind of a pricey deal, but now I have nice cold air conditioning. That’ll be nice this summer…

    Expected boost

    My moose pump sat for a month before I put it in, and while I understand that’s different than an R&D pump they are still a DB2, and mine did act a little funny at first, would stall if you pushed in the clutch above idle, and loped at idle other times, but cleared up after a day or so… and I...

    Fixing RABS ground connection

    It appears that F Super Duty trucks weren’t equipped with any kind of ABS… I wonder why… Ah well, one less thing to go wrong. I couldn’t imagine not having that truck now, it’s been a godsend… definitely my favorite. Do the RABS equipped trucks have the proportioning valve that adjusts the...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Well, my truck is just too loud for my tastes. It’s a small open flow muffler, so it doesn’t change the sound much, just makes it a little quieter. But engine noise is the real killer in that truck, needs more/better cab insulation…
