    Project: 1986 F-250 6.0 Swap.

    I’m subscribed too! I’ve got an 83 F250, 6.9. I’ve also had two 6.0’s - an 04 with close to 300K before I got hit by a semi and totaled it, (Bone stock and ran great.) and currently an 06 with 180K (bulletproof EGR cooler and coolant filter). I love the 6.0, it’s the last truck that Ford built...

    Brake question?

    Checked the vac level and it is fine. Have the same reading at the pump and at the booster. Check valve is fine too. Not sure where the low vac switch is.

    Seat help

    I need a new seat for an 83 std. cab F250. Does anyone know if any other body styles would be a direct replacement? I heard 78-97 would work, but not sure if it’s true. Thanks!

    Brake question?

    The brake warning light just started coming on intermittently in my 83 F250 6.9. It’s off until you hit the brakes, then it comes on (sometimes), and the pedal is soft. If I hit it again, the light goes off and the pedal is stiffer. The truck was working fine until a couple days ago. The fluid...

    Question

    I recently replaced the 6.9 in my 83 F250. The truck ran ok when I bought it, but it smoked until it warmed up and had a high rpm miss. When warmed up, it ran a little over 40 psi oil pressure at normal driving rpm, and dropped to about 25 at idle. Shortly after I bought the truck, I picked up...

    Water separator?

    Thanks everyone for your replies. I’m having trouble with my email so it’s taking a couple days to get back. I’ll see what I can figure out. I appreciate it!

    Water separator?

    Hi everyone. I have a question, I recently picked up an 83 F250 6.9 and someone bypassed the water separator. I assume it was leaking at some point. I was wondering if this was a common problem, and where would be a good place to get replacement parts, or a whole new unit. Or, if there is a...

    Fuel flow question

    Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it. I’ll keep looking for a filter/separator. If not, I’ll look for a 7.3 filter head. Thanks again.

    Fuel flow question

    This may be a stupid question, but does the fuel flow from the tank, through the separator, to the fuel pump (lift pump)? Someone bypassed the separator on my truck and I think they re routed the fuel lines some crazy way. Also, is there a filter / separator combo available that replaces the...
