    No I have not. You are refering to the brass fitting to connect the return lines with the IP? Is there also one in the shrader valve? Is this a ball bearing check valve? Is it as simple as unscrew, clean, reinstall? Thanks.

Anyone have link or any material on replacing a lift pump? Would it be covered in a manual? Tips on said replacement? Anything special to look...

    Home made grille guard

    Looks great, I also like the "DIESEL" plus the "4X4" emblems. Ever think about adding some wrap-around bars over the headlights?

    Block Heater

    I used mine every morning for a season. Hard starts due to bad plugs, just pluged the truck in about two hours before take-off, and It was all good. Things I know about are to not use an extention cord longer then 50' (of one that can handle the Amp draw) but thats about it. Ive read somewhere...

    Injector leak that bad?

    Happend to me, noticed the black oil patches wherever I parked. Spent some time looking for the start of the leak, down the back of the motor. Finally noticed the wet return lines and pool of diesel, (was leaking off the back and down, collecting all the old oil on its way) Return line kit...

    Radios?

    http://www.ford-trucks.com/article/idx/8/178/article/CB_Radio_Install_On_Older_F150s.html This is pretty much how I did mine. We used to have a great time on these. I noticed you get the occasional F-bomb, but I didnt mind. Picking up skip from far off places can be fun too. Saved our butts...

    6.9 return lines on 7.3?

    Alright so From what I gather, all the injectors, the fuel filter, and the IP need to drain back to the tank. So using a hose T, I can run lines connecting all components. This forum holds a wealth of information, Thanks so all. One more slightly related question, Just got a remaned injector...
